Sathvik, an IIM graduate turned film maker has delivered a fresh and new-age comedy drama providing utmost entertainment to the audience.
Story:

During his recess, Vaibhav reconciles with his childhood friends and crush. Vaibhav juggles between friendship, love and family. When one of his friends lands in trouble, Vaibhav decides to fight back. Will he succeed in preserving righteousness and justice for his friend?
Performances:
Ruthvik being a debutant actor had given a subtle and unique performance which is a rare feat for any debut actor. Surprisingly, Ruthvik had also sung for himself in a song. Iqra Idrisi delivers a fine performance portraying Aarthi, a multi-talented girl. Raghu G, Arjun Jawabnavis, Savinder impressed with their stellar performances and the rest of the cast, most of whom are newcomers, have given their share of performances providing giggles, tears of emotion and joy.
Technicalities
Sathvik, an IIM grad, is surely a rising star in the realm of direction. Sathvik has redefined the word ‘versatile’ by writing, directing, producing, editing, penning down lyrics and composing music to the film. This is one of the rare achievements that only a few stalwarts of the tollywood industry have achieved and Sathvik accomplished it at the beginning of his career. The production values of the movie are top-notch and act as a benchmark to all the films which aspire to bring quality with limited resources. The Cinematographers have done a great job with impeccable camera angles. Songs and Background Score have predominantly elevated the film. The foot tapping “Kalaganna” has rightly hit the bull’s eye. On the other hand, “Palle Veedhullona” is a soulful song which smoothens the heart and the lyrics of the song have etched the hearts of the listeners. The comedy, songs, performances and twists will make it worth your money.
Positives: Screenplay Story Dialogues Performances Clean comedy Music and Background score
Negatives: Few scenes are slightly complicated and require more intellect to understand Lack of familiar faces

Amid ongoing reports suggesting the closure of theatres across both Telugu states, the Telugu Film Chamber has officially addressed the issue and provided much-needed clarity.
Telugu Film Chamber Secretary Mr. K.L. Damodar Prasad explained, “Due to several rumors circulating recently, we decided to hold a meeting at the Film Chamber Key producers, exhibitors, and distributors from both states participated in the discussions. We spoke at length about the current challenges faced by theatres.
There were reports that theatres would be shut down from May 1st. We want to make it clear that these reports are entirely false and based on speculation. There is no plan to close theatres.
On May 30th, we will hold an Executive Committee meeting, where a joint committee representing producers, distributors, and exhibitors will be formed. This committee will focus on finding solutions to the current problems within a set timeframe.
We request the public and media to only rely on official information released by the Film Chamber or affiliated bodies. Please do not believe or spread unverified news, as false reports are creating unnecessary panic and confusion in the film industry.
If necessary, we are open to discussing the matter with the government, as we have done in the past.
No outsider has ever stepped in to resolve the industry’s internal issues — the industry has always stood up for itself.
Finally, we strongly reject the rumor that the supposed shutdown is targeting any particular film. Our collective focus is to overcome the current challenges quickly in a positive direction.”
The meeting was attended by several key industry figures, including Prasanna Kumar, Sridhar, Sudhakar Reddy, Shiva Prasad Rao, K.L. Damodar Prasad, Bharat Bhushan, Venkateswara Rao, Sunil Narang, Anupam Reddy, Bharat Chowdary, T.S. Ram Prasad, C. Kalyan, Muthyala Ramadas, M. Sudhakar, and others.
