Sr. NTR excels as the Emperor Sri Krishnadevaraya in the film. He unleashes never-before-seen shades of the emperor such as anger, and adamancy- as far as punishing his guardian and minister Appaji. The internal struggle Emperor goes through after he imposes the punishment to his closest person Appaji was phenomenally shown by Sr.NTR.As the film is named after his character Appaji, Gummadi shines in the lead role as the concerned and innocent minister. Being caught in a wrong place in the wrong time, the helplessness and the utter shock of his Emperor imposing the punishment on him was portrayed brilliantly by Gummadi. This is another jewel in his film career which proved yet again why Gummadi is a fantastic character actor of Telugu Cinema. -
