Nannaku Prematho is a class film and the masses might find it very hard to digest certain facts. Even though NTR is superb in the film, the regular punch dialogues and dances he is usually associated with are completely missing in this film. Pace of the film is also a bit slow as the film takes its own time to unravel.Some scenes showcasing the affection between NTR and his father should have been executed to make the plot more believable.
As the subject matter is quite serious, scope for comedy was also less and all those who expect this as a Sankranthi special entertainer might be disappointed.First 15 minutes and the entire episode featuring Rakul Preet and her mom could have been mellowed down and edited out. This episode looks out of place and eats away most of the run time.On the whole, Nannaku Prematho is a film where all the unnecessary commercial aspects are put aside and the focus is on the content. NTR’s solid performance and emotional content are huge assets. However, the slow pace of the film and lack of certain elements which are expected by NTR fans and mass audience will hamper the collections to an extent. Finally, Nannaku Prematho is a class act which should do well only with the A center audience.
