Allari Pidugu

I am a great fan of Nandamuri Balakrishna garu, I almost saw all his films till date.

Yesterday I saw his latest movie Allari pidugu at Vaibhav Theater, Banglore. All the shows were houseful and fans had gala time.

I was initially upset over some web reviews, but after watching the movie I was convinced that the movie will definitely have a good run. All the tollywood movies in recent times are getting negative talk on first day and are slowly registering success at box-office. This trend of course is worrisome.

Coming to the movie, it is a lighter vein family entertainer which showed Balakrishna in a different and stylish dimension away from his regular trademark mass dialogues and mass mannerisms. He definitely looked fresh and much younger than his recent movies. Thanks to Jayanth. He was at his best in terms of performance in both roles (especially ACP Ranjith character).

The movie was trendy, rich in production values, has good comedy and most scenes were perfectly executed(especially the first half). The Digital grading definitely made it more appealing. More tight screenplay could have done wonders to the film and increased its success range.

All other actors performed equally well, charmme and Katrina were very glamorous and performed their roles well.

The life to the film of course is the songs and their taking is commendable. One can watch out the film just for songs. I congratulate the team for celebrating the first hexaplatinum disc function before movie release.

I definitely love to see Balayya in such offbeat movies away from his complete mass image. I would not hesitate to recommend this movie to both fans of Balakrishna and other movie lovers. The movie got instant above average talk to decent hit talk here. I also heard that it had great collections in Andhra Pradesh on first day and is on its way to registering box-office success.

I personally thank Producer MRV Prasad garu for the smooth release of the movie both in India and Overseas with out any hiccups.
