Cast: Nani, Catherine Tresa, Siddhika Sharma, Charan Raj, RK, Akbar-bin-Tabar, Bharath ReddyDirection: Krishna VamsiGenre: CrimeDuration: 2 hours 23 minutes
Prakash (Nani), a random drifter can't believe his luck when he accidentally gets his hands on Rs 50 crore. But soon enough all hell breaks loose as cops, goons and powerful politicians step into the scene.
Movie Review: Every other scene in the movie has a superimposed backdrop of the Charminar jutting out from the foreground, much the same way gaudy wall paintings would in cheap theatre productions. Well, most of the movie is set in the old city and perhaps the filmmaker was desperate to drive home the point to the audience. However, the presence of a surfeit of popular faces from Deccani cinema like RK, Akbar-bin-Tabar, Raju Srivastav lends some forced authenticity to the proceedings onscreen.
Technically there is plenty that's wrong with the movie that looks like it's been shot with the wrong camera. The production values are reminiscent of those you would find in an amateur home video. But then even the best of Krishna Vamsi's films didn't click for their technical finesse so to harp on them would be redundant.
His brand of cinema borders on the grotesque and the filmmaker sticks to his strengths and whips up a rather indulgently entertaining experience. The plot is simple.
