I created an account just to rate this Telugu movie, which was a huge letdown. The hero, in his late 50s, was uncomfortably touchy with the young actress, making their dynamic feel gross and outdated. This kind of depiction reinforces outdated stereotypes where a woman's worth is tied to her relationship with a man, and where men are portrayed as protectors of fragile women. Telugu cinema has a troubling trend of normalizing harassment and stalking, especially given the current socio-cultural climate in India. The plot was weak and dragged on, feeling like it could've been wrapped up in an hour. The surprise guest actor had better chemistry with the actress than Raviteja. Overall, it was boring and troubling. If you enjoyed this movie, it might be worth reflecting on your preferences, as it's hard to see how someone who respects women and has good taste would find it enjoyable. Avoid it.
