    JayaSudha not only looks beatiful but gives a brilliant performance. Chiranjeevi who played -ve roles in 47 Rojulu and this film did a great job too. Dialogues and screen play and direction for this film really are visible to the viewer in every frame of the movie.
    Balachander in almost all of his movies used to have one song which will be a new experiment. Anthu leni kadha - tali kattu subha vela - mimicry
    Maro Cahrite - kalisi vunte kaladhu sukham - movie names
    Idhi Kadha Kadhu - Junior - Ventriloquism
    Tanna tana - Akali Rajyam - Cmposing a song
    Randi randi - Rudra Vina - Conversation based
