      Plot is not just the important thing

      They boast to have madea great movie, but Indian movie makers constantly shame our Army. The black cat commando's for that guy Shastry look like losers. They couldn't put on their berets properly. Dude, meeru eppudu Hollywood level ki velthararu ra. Vedhavallara. Don't insult Indian Army and the elite forces. Laser Guns for the cops. Shame....

      One of the good films this year. Can we have a sequel ?

      Firstly, this is not one of the regular stereotypical stupid movies telugu industry churns out with their family members just because they own the production houses and take the movie goers for fools.

      Its good to see someone who had genuinely tried to do something different. Don't let the low budget fool you, its been used well.

      Agree, its a mix of Kingsman, Mission impossible series with a mix of James bond and Jason Bourne series but the story is still strong and stands apart. Thankfully the movie cuts back on irrelevant nonsensical songs and fights. Movie is fast paced and sometimes predictable on few occasions but not all the time.

      Sadly, in a year there are only a handful of movies (YES its less than 10) that are good in Telugu as most are hyped and lack substance and include some irritable songs.

      I am rating it a 9 as this movie is good given the budget, cast and the limited release. Of course this movie also has its own loopholes (dont want to include spoilers) but they can be overlooked due to the strong story line and screenplay while intertwining it with a love story. This movie is a game changer and a trend setter. Kudos to the team. Can we expect a sequel ?

      Is Bangladesh a terrorist State?

      No, One in the movie said about Bangladesh as a terrorist State. Terrorist are every everywhere, anywhere with regard for humanity, No need to be feel offensive, It's a good movie, Just enjoy.

      It is good to see someone who had genuinely tried to do something different in tollywood. There r similar v.good movies in black and white (Agent 116) days, Nice to see in modern day version of it.

      New Age Telugu Cinema

      To take Telugu cinema to next level, You don't need a couple of hundred crore movies. But You need a good story and a thrilling screenplay. Gudhachari is such a movie one can take notes on.
