Most of the battles are centered around Satakarni(Nandamuri Balakrishna), no argument there, he is the face of the film, but that turns out to be delimitation. Being the pioneer of the faction themes in the Telugu industry with his uber rhetoric and unrealistic stunts, Balakrishna is just reduced to his power punches in this epic battle(s). Every action sequence is a close shot of the actor swinging his sword with a tad clumsiness. The mass actor was in no shape to swing his sword continuously for a minute, let alone fight in four huge battles. Balakrishna throwing punches in mid-air is acceptable in mass and faction filled films, but in epic wars, it doesn’t quite make sense when a king jumps into an enemy fort(on a horseback!) and gets rid of the those preventing a breach(Yes, with a single sword). Or the actor’s vague strategy to attack the enemy from all sides confusing them. They just don’t lend credence to the usual battle formations.
