Rating: 3.25

"Patience" and you need lots of it to watch this movie. If you have it, it is  a good movie. It has an interesting concept but feels like a documentary few times. The movies like these are very rare on Indian Screen and that too in a regional language is almost unseen. So one need to have lots of guts to make this movie.  We must appreciate director Krish for believing in this concept and his producers for backing him.

Story: It is the story of Dhupati Hari Babu (Varun) who tries to wage war both at home and in Nazi Germany. At home, he has to fight the caste system to win his love for Seetha Devi(Pragya Jaiswal) and in Germany for his Mother Land. Will he win?  To know the answer to that question you have to watch the movie.

Acting: Varun Teja is very good for a second movie. He excelled very well in emotional scenes and action episodes. His dialogue delivery is on par with seasoned actors. Pragya Jaiswal is very lovely on the screen and her acting is good. Gollapudi and Janaki are two characters that will keep you glued. Nikitin Dheer is good as a baddie. Srinivas Avasarala is adequate.

Techincal: Director Krish had an interesting concept of mixing love, caste and war in  one movie. He has overplayed his hand in the second half of the movie with snail pace with less story and  dragging war episodes. The background score by Chirantan Bhatt  is very good, but the music in the songs are ok. The photography Chota k Naidu is very good and the artwork to recreate 1930's is good. The main strength of this movie is dialogues written by Sai Madhav Burra. Last but not least the production values are top notch.

Analysis: The movie started off well but the second half is very preachy and the war episodes at the end make it feel too long.

Highlights:

Varun  Teja

Dialogues

Screenplay

Good Concept

Good Background Score

Drawbacks:

Second Half

War Episodes

Box office:  The movies of this type need a star power to get the crowd to the theaters. The movie may do well overseas but may not work at domestic box office.

Watch it for the interesting and daring concept in a Telugu cinema.
