Onetime watch Intense Love Action Drama

Plot:

Krishna (Nani) an orphan loves Maha Lakshmi (Mehreen), the daughter of Rajappa, the most feared influential personality in the region of Hindupur.  Krishna & Mahalakshmi are childhood friends and lovers in disguise. Krishna who is a coward by nature couldn't talk to Rajappa or his henchman RamaRaju (Mahalakshmi's brother). Meanwhile, Rajappa's brother ACP Srikanth accidentally arrests David Bhai (Murali Sharma) in Hyderabad. Amidst mysterious circumstances, Rajappa & family are attacked & ACP Srikanth's 3 kids need rescue - a vital responsibility that falls upon Krishna's shoulders. How did Krishna accomplish turbulent mission that demands the lives of Mahalakshmi & the kids form the rest of the plot.

Performances:

Nani: Natural Star Nani carries the entire film upon his shoulders with his all-round performance.

Meheren: This newbie is a promising actor & certainly a star-in-making. She manages to leave an impression amidst the rest.

Sampath Raj: He makes inroads into the plot as a dashing cop in style and gives his best.

Above all, Brahmaji as factionist Veerabhadram, 30yrs Industry Prithvi as Inspector Jamadagni, Murali Sharma as mafia don David Ibrahim steal the show.

Analysis:

Hanu Raghavapudi, the man who has given us a poetic love story film like Andala Rakshasi is back with KVPG - a 'commercial entertainer' with his mark. Exactly when his curious fans are awaiting a refreshing offer, Hanu tries to enthral you with his strength (love story) and at the same time allure the masses with an action drama.

Commercial stupidity is light years away and when you are eagerly looking forward towards a heartening love story, the revenge drama plays the underdog and eventually veers the locus of the plot.

Well the characters are interesting, the love story is engaging and  you've some fun throughout & some hilarious segments once in a while covering up for the slow narrative. The story has fallen into the groove with a pre-interval block that can leave you keen upon the second half. But the second half is somehow lost in the woods and finally finds its way back conveniently towards the end of the film.

This love story turned rescue mission has a robust story, intense performances, hilarious comedy (here and there) and a narrative that takes its time to finish things.

Merits:

Good story
Intense Performances by Nani, Mehereen, Sampath Raj & the 3 amazing kids.
Comedy of Satyam Rajesh, Prithvi, Murali Sharma, Prabhas Seenu.
The romantic track & chemistry between Nani-Mehreen
Music & background score by Vishal
Cinematography

De-merits:

The slow and steady narration might bother you throughout the film.

Music:

This versatile album by Vishal Chandrasekhar is impressive. The songs were well shot too. However, the background score outshines the album.

Others:

Production & Art Direction deserves a special mention for an impressive job.

Verdict:

Krishna Gaadi Veera Prema Gaadha is an  intense love action drama that has a potential to entertain you - slow, steady, engaging. Forget Andala Rakshasi and step into the theatre, you'll be rewarded a onetime watch entertainer.
