Performance: Based on the life story of Tiger Nageswara Rao, who dominated the reign of terror in Stuartpuram and gave life to his men, the story has huge action episodes, some emotions, as well as daring heist sequences and an impressive cast. The way Ravi Teja acted in this role as a challenge in his career is outstanding. Ravi Teja looked very fresh with new looks in this movie than in his previous movies. And Nupur Sanan, impressed with her performance. At some places her gestures and her acting are good. Gayatri Bharadwaj who played another female lead also impressed. Renu Desai has played the role of Hemalatha Lavanam. Anupam Kher, Nassar and Muralisharma have done full justice to their roles. Jissu Sengupta is very good in another important role. Also, the rest of the actors also acted well in their roles.
Technical: Director Vamsi has succeeded in taking a good story. But, in creating a thrilling story, he could not succeed in making it even more thrilling. And the work of the technical team who worked for the film is good. The music provided by music director GV Prakash Kumar is impeccable. Otherwise, the background music provided by him is the highlight of the film. Editor Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao’s work is good. R. Madhi’s cinematography is also commendable. He has styled this film without diminishing the beauty anywhere. Abhishek Agarwal’s production values are good.
Analysis: In Tiger Nageswara Rao, the main content and Ravi Teja’s performance, mass elevations, action scenes are good, but the narration was slow at some places. In the second half, while there is scope to increase the suspense of what will happen next, the director has not made full use of that opportunity. Also, a good effort was made to make the second half a bit emotional, but at some places it did not work out effectively on the screen. Also, it would have been better if the scenes had been shot keeping in mind the Nativity of that time when the story was going on in the 1970s-80s. First half is engaging, but things slowed down in the second hour.
