Expert Review :

A well knit tale, the story begins with Brahma (rajendra prasad) having a small misunderstanding with Saraswati (kalyani). The scene changes to Bhulokam and there is Sreenu (sivaji) who is keen on getting married but doesn't have a degree. His life takes a turn when he sees Swetha (sonia) and falls in love with her. Meanwhile, Sreenu's friend Sobhan Babu (venu) decides to do a penance and manages to get Brahma's attention. The god gives him a pot and by drinking it, he will get the powers to read everyone's fate. However, a situation gets Sreenu to the spot and he ends up drinking the magic potion in the pot. As expected, his life becomes perfect but not before it has its share of consequences. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.

The director has come up with an appealing tale and while the presentation was good, the narrative could have been better. The dialogues were good, the script was okay and the screenplay was apt. Background score could have been avoided at few places and one song was good. Cinematography was above average, editing was okay, costumes were suitable and the art department was effective. Visual graphics were convincing. Rajendra Prasad yet again proves why he is the best, Sivaji was competent and gave a talented performance, Sonia is a revelation and she has a strong potential, Venu Madhav was witty, Jayaprakash Reddy was good, AVS made his presence felt, Aarthi Agarwal was appealing, Raghu Babu was loud, Pragathi, Laya, Kalyani did their bit as required, the others came and went.

The film is basically an entertainer with the divinity element and for a change, Lord Brahma was given a key place. While the first half takes off promisingly, the second half gets a bit dragged due to unwanted melodrama and non situational song. Overall, the film has been presented well but the content could have been stronger. The comedy part is okay and if it was given more focus, the entertainment quotient would have increased. This will be an average grosser at the box office and it is suitable to all genres of audience.
