A gang keeps on hunting for Sunil to kill him which he realises soon.
Why Sunil was unable to visit India for good 18 years ? Who conspires against him ? Who is trying to kill him and why ? which heroine he gets married to…to know the answers watch Krishnashtami.
Lead Actors :
Star comedian Sunil has looked not so excited about the project , his mark of energy was missing in the characterization. He danced OK in couple of songs but not so special steps.
Heroines Nikki Galrani and Dimple Chopade are big -ve for the movie. Former looked like a 40 plus woman, Latter looked like a group dancer.
Brahmanandam as “selfie Bulfi” is able to generate some comedy in couple of scenes and comedians Prudhvi, Saptagiri were wasted
What worked well ?
– Songs are rich
– One or two comedy episodes
– Family oriented story line
What should have been better ?
– Rest everything
Technicians :
Director Vasu Varma whose debutante movie Naga Chaitanya’s Josh was failed, yet again failed to show any signs of merit. Music by Dinesh is mediocre and other technicians work also nothing mentionable
When TFI was delivering run of mill movies, Dil Raju used to produce tasteful, different movies. Now, when TFI is trying to do something different,it is surprising to see Dil Raju produce such pale and hackyneyed movies like Krishnashtami
Verdict:
A Disappointment. Both First half and Second half fails to impress the audience and overall this movie lacks anything that appeals to audience.
Telugu360.com Rating : 2/5
