Directed by one of the finest directors, Raghavendra Roa produced by Sai Krupa Entertainments, staring Akkineni Nagarjuna, Anushka and Saurabh Raj in lead roles. The movie is about Rama, a great devotee of Lord Venkateshwara and how he became Hati Ram Babaji and how Lord Venkateshwara got the name Balaji which took place in 18th century. Akkineni Nagarjuna as Hati Ram Babaji gave the best. He carried the devotion in a great way. Anuskha in the role f Krishnamma looks good. The main character of the movie is Lord Venkateshwara, which is played by Mahabharata fame Saurabh Raj. Definitely Saurabh Raj looks great and perfect as Lord Venkateshwara. The movie shows off the greatness of Lord Venkateshwara, and makes us to know about why and how the things came into existence in Tirupati. Every frame is greatly pictured. Some scenes like Rama playing Dice with Lord Vekateshwara, Akhilanda koti and Kalyanam kanu ramaneeyam songs will not leave you even after the movie.
Music by M.M.Keeravani is excellent and sings were greatly shot. And the climax is excellent which Lord Venkateshwara says that’Devotion is greater then God" and the sentiment is carried very well. Mainly there is no fake or no cinematic story is added. Raghavendra Rao directed the movie with the information he had and directed in the best way. No boring sequences. We get involved with the movie. In such a great way the screen play was written by Raghavendra Rao.
Technical values are good. Graphics are good. Cinematography by S.Gopal Reddy is good. Editing by Gautham Raju is sharp. Remaing artista Pragya Jaiswal, Jagapathi Babu, Rao Ramesh and all gave their best.
