Nikki Garlani makes a decent Tollywood debut and does well in whatever role she is offered. The last half an hour during the first half is very interesting and has some good moments.A particular chase scene has been executed in asuperb way and elevates the film to a decent level. Interval bang and the way suspense is revealed during this time is also good. Viva Harsha is good in his role and so were AshutoshRana and Mukesh Rishi. Generally, audience are very used to Sunil’s comedy and crazy feats on screen. But sadly, that is missing big time with his role in Krishnashtami. Interesting interval bang and some comedy scenes here and there are basic assets of this film. Watch it only if you have nothing else to do as this film has nothing new to offer and ends up as a routine and outdated family drama.
