One of the most underrated movie in Telugu cinema.
Rana Daggubati's acting was so fluent to believe this is his 1st film.
The roles of Richa & Suhasini were powerful enough to anchor the screenplay rock solid to the storyline.
The deep rooted corruption in our system can push any soul to make deal with devil as a necessary evil.
The way forward is to have Leaders instead of Politicians

A complete shift from his earlier films, Sekhar Kammula has yet again struck the right lines while directing this film.
I had lot of doubt before the movie got released, as to whether Sekhar really had the story and the guts to pull off such a film, but he did with an incredible style. The story though seems inspired from real life incidents is very well written and the dialogues are brilliant. The film slackens a bit in the second half, but the ending is a high adrenaline jump as the old man's scene moves you completely. The background music is inspiring and brings you goose-bumps every time the Leader's title track instrumental comes along.
Rana should be appreciated a lot for staying away from the commercial launch for his first film and even his subtle expressions and underplay deserves a sound applause. Finally a must watch.

script: leader is a brave attempt by director . he drives the movie really good and gives the movie a splendid finish. the movie is all about hero the son of chief minister of Andra pradesh who is an entrepreneur in USA. after the blast of his father , he decides to become c.m but cousin opposes him. after becoming c.m he faces many difficulties. how he overcomes and emerges as a leader is in the script.
casting: Rana is a pick for the movie. his dialog delivery and his height factor along with a stupendous look is the plus point. his lady love richa is OK. priya anand is supportive. suhasini manirathram is a good mother. kota is a stubborn and corruptive uncle. rest all apt.
screenplay: the movie in the first half , is well made and is fast.
the movie drags a bit in 2nd half. camera work is good.
action/drama: the movie is more dramatic rather than action oriented. there is no any action scene except a slap scene and some bullets along with a blast and fire scene.
songs/art : art work is apt. songs like vande mataram and leader title song is good. background score is well hitched. DTS mix at right intervals are apt. DTS mix is powerful during rain thunder storm.
final analysis: the first half is good to watch. the second half is a drag bit. though the climax is convincing. leader is a must watchable movie.

"I loved the wildly uneven Interstellar far more than I should have, but that doesn't mean it is perfect. Ultimately, the utter awe and spectacle of space swept me through the admittedly heavy-handed plotting and dialogue."Every day, our leaders, politicians, and pundits call for "revenge"- against terrorist groups, against international rivals, against other political parties. But few of them understand the cold, destructive, and ultimately hollow thrill of revenge as well as the characters of Blue Ruin."Every day, our leaders, politicians, and pundits call for "revenge"- against terrorist groups, against international rivals, against other political parties.
