Chandrika Movie Review-Roundup

Chandrika Movie Review

[review]

Based on the reviews of Top Telugu movie sites and based on the public talk.

Chandrika is a Horror Thriller with  a routine story Line . But glamour of the actress (Sree Mukhi and Kamna Jethmalani) and their acting skills saved the movie.

indiaglitz.com Rating: 2.5/5

‘Chandrika’ reminds one of ‘Chandramukhi’ more often than it would have had it been directed by someone with no ‘Chandramukhi’ hangover. It comes with a wafer-think story line.  A few novel scenes could have redeemed the film.

123telugu.com Rating : 2.25/5

On the whole, Chandrika fails to impress the audience due to its routine story line and slow narration. The glamour quotient of the female leads is the only saving grace for this film which ends up as a fearless horror drama.

 


Subramanyam For Sale Movie Review Roundup

subramanyam-for-sale

[review]

Based on the reviews of top telugu movie sites and based on the public talk.

Subramanyam For Sale is a routine story but Director Harish Shankar’s command over comedy and fan frenzy moments takes Subramanyam to a safe zone. Sai Dharam Tej will surely make an impression with this film. Mega fans will start to believe that he has potential.

idlebrain.com Rating: 3.25/5

Analysis: First half of the film is alright. Second half has good entertainment. Climax is little dramatic. Director Harish Shankar’s entertainment elements and Dil Raju’s family values (though, there are a couple of double meaning dialogues in first half) are blended well in this movie. Plus points are Sai Dharam Tej’s energetic performance and Hari Shankar’s entertainment orientation coupled with a decent story line. It will be a feast for Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan’s fans. On a whole, Subramanyam For Sale has potential to work at box office!

123telugu.com Rating : 3.5/5

Tollywood churns out big budget commercial entertainers once in every two weeks and half of them have the same story. But the films that click are narrated with hilarious entertainment and Subramanyam For Sale falls in this very same category. SFS will be a turning point in Sai Dharam Tej’s career and will put him into the big league. If you manage to ignore the routine and predictable story line, this film will entertain you from the word go and ends up as a paisa vasool entertainer.

Gulte.com Rating : 3.5/5

Subramanyam For Sale is a film made for the aam junta who look for entertainment and entertainment only. The script is sloppy with lots of holes and cliches. Interesting characterization of hero helps the bad first half to an extent. Things get better as the story moves to India. There is lot of entertainment in the second half.Harish Shankar’s command over comedy and fan frenzy moments takes Subramanyam to a safe zone. Sai Dharam Tej will surely make an impression with this film. Mega fans will start to believe that he has potential.Climax was dealt in a melodramatic fashion which is out of sync with rest of the movie. Subramanyam For Sale isn’t a perfect film and is not a bad one either. You can watch it once for its entertainment.

Indiaglitz.com Rating: 3.25/5

A rom-com and a family entertainer, this one is ‘bhale bhale’ Subramanyam for sure. Watch out for Dharam Tej’s natural act, the lead pair, and dialogue.
