The film has a number of theatre actors who have mingled with the junior cast so well and have allowed the story to move forward seamlessly. Samuthirakani and Vinay Verma are apt for their roles. Newcomer Mime Madhu as the doting father Ranga does a fabulous job. There’s a sprinkling of physics and a takeaway about faith.

Initially the film keeps you guessing about where the story is headed, but the subtle entertainment creeps in by the interval. There is so much you can gather from the dialogues as well and the well-written screenplay. A Hiranyakashyap-Prahlad story reference works as a catalyst and also a denouement giving the story a perfect closure. The story explores what happens when a school teacher Chandram master (Samuthirakani) steps into this setting and tries to make the tribals see the true picture. “gorrellaku kommulu undakoodadhu, goodaniki dammulu undakoodadhu ” (the goats shouldn’t have horns and the village shouldn’t have guts). Dora’s chieftain from the tribe, Sambhadu (Teja Kakamanu), makes life miserable for them.ĭora who has plenty of wealth but cannot protect his sick and dying son, tells Sambhadu, “Kill theirĭaivam (God) they shouldn’t listen to Aakashavaani any more.” The chieftain passes a diktat: The tribals are harassed, beaten and forced to consider the king as their God. On the other side of the settlement is a king, Dora (Vinay Verma), and his yes men who continue to live off the tribals who seem to be uncivilised in the conventional manner of speaking. At the end of the film, you are reminded of the moral science class at school. There are many newcomers along with a few familiar faces, but they all come together and do not let your mind wander. This is not an easy film to write and execute. While the director completely relies on the story to work, Suresh Raghutu’s lens captures the beautiful Paderu area and the agency settlement in its greens and browns.
