This Grandson of N.T. Rama Rao is portrayed as an action star,
and he displays the maturity and vigor of a seasoned artiste
and the ebullience of youth. NTR Jr. is vociferous, forthright
and displays good grasp of the subject. This film looks totally
different from what he has played so far. Director Vinayak,
being the story and screenplay writer himself, presents his
subject with utmost care and balance.
Dialogue writers Paruchuri Brothers, incidentally wrote dialogues
even for NTR senior and his son Balakrishna's films too. Now
with Aadi, they continue their involvement with the third
generation. Undoubtedly it is their skill that keeps the audio
of the film very interesting. The other technical work- music
by Mani Sharma and photography by Ram Prasad - goes in step
with this revenge seeking theme, set against the backdrop
of the land of factionists - Rayalaseema.
The story begins with little Aadi (short for Aadikeshava Reddy)
migrating to the city for studies along with his uncle (Chalapati
Rao), after the brutal murder of his father Veera Reddy (Ahuti
Prasad), by his relative.
In the city of Hyderabad, the story of grown up Aadi commences
with his college life, where he falls in love with Nandini,
the daughter of his archenemy - Nagireddy. Rest of the story
has more conniving, and more violence.
Chalapati Rao plays a 'guardian warrior' of Aadi, protecting
him from all evils. Rajeev Kanakala in a brief scene as a
bad boy of another college, Master Nandan as child Aadi, Rajan
as the trouble maker and Sangeetha in a brief role as villains's
helpless wife give impressive performances. Keerti Chawla,
in her debut role makes her presence felt.
