Better if we call this as BombayWala. Released on 2004 Jan 1st, huge market hype was created both in public as well as at box-office too. This film budgeting around 15/17 cr?s.
Made a good business of 24 cr?s but all the distributors, Exhibitors and other buyers lost their whole sum amount very badly. Making a film with good technical values and with good, blended script has become a big task for new directors and producers.
Telugu film industry is actually in depts. More than 230 cr?s of bulk amt is invested very year expecting great results at box offices. This film flop proves the real taste of audience, public will not accept to watch and enjoy at weekends what ever they make and whatever release.

Analysis: -
DUAL role: - This was good attempt on junior NTR but failed with lace of performance
OTHER CHARECTORS: - Did not impress much with their face on the screen.
Moreover, other artists have no scope to say a single dialogue.
Guess they are paid to just express their blank expression.
HEROISM: - Noting challenging. Just as casual film the narration goes
VILLANISM: - No one gets fear or something else by watching.
COSTUMES: - very-poor selection by the designers
MUSIC: - y still poor jagan give offer to this type of music director CHAKRI, this person does not
Know much abt music.
Lyrics: - It will be great if we understood any single line from the lyrics?
CINEMATOGRAPHY: - we know that few scenes and emotions need some special type of
Camera But here in this movie RAMPING SHOTS were used as many as
We get bore by watching that type of shots.
I directors of this generation feel that composing of shots is direction.
SOUND TRACK: - disturbs us not to listen week and poor dialogues written by the director.
Thank god.
EDITING: - By EDITING number of times the editor might have forgot his editing skills.
DIRECTION: - very-poor presentation. Like Presenting flash backs and inserting vulgarity
Composing odd shots while introduction of Hero and Heroine.
Giving importance to sudden emotions that are unnecessary.
Finally Poor judgment of script. Not worthy for direction.
Finally, this movie is disaster flop loosing all the 18 cr?s in market. The same team is going
To start again a new project for the all the losers who lost their money in this flick. NTR being generous has taken this decision and requested raja mouli of STUDENT NO 1 fame to direct.
Hope this movie may raise all their money.
