Analysis :
Ram
Charan was excellent and his voice modulation added to the aesthetics
of the film. As Cherry and Siddharth Naik, the young star had displayed
prowess that is sure to get thumps up from fans. Kajal Agarwal and Amala
Paul were equally gorgeous with better screen space for the former.
Brahmanandam is his usual self with a meaty role that should feed his
fans with sumptuous hilarious menu. M S Narayana as CBI lipreading
specialist tickles the funny bone and takes due credence in the laugh
act. Almost all of them fit the bill on the whole. Songs are
entertaining and would leave fans tapping their feet. First half is
comedy of a decent genre and second half is action packed, with an
unexpected turn.Performance :
Ram
Charan is awesome in the company of his 'Magadheera lady love,' Kajal
Agarwal. Ram Charan as Siddharth Naik in the second half excels in
histrionics and action scenes. Songs 'Laila Oh Laila...' in the first
half and the title song in the second half are visual delight with
classic and new dance movements which are sure to be setting trends. The
hip movements in the songs were meticulously performed. The remake of
'Subha Lekha rasukunna....' exceeded the expectations and bettered it's
previous version. Chiru must have been really pleased with his son's
performance in the song and should have envied the picturesque
locations.The story reminds of various films but all the bits have been knitted well by the versatile director V V Vinayak. Chota K Naidu behind the camera shows what could be the best visual treat. Comedy fare offered by Brahmanandam and M S Narayana is hilarious and unique. Climax could have been better, on the whole a commendable effort by the entire team.
Final Word: Naayak review, an outright entertainer.

Ohmkkar
annaya, was not particularly enjoyable on the small screen but his
presence behind the screen tells us that he has the potential to handle
movies on the big screen. His narration was obnoxious and the plot was
not well portrayed too. His comeback in the second half however is
commendable. Parachuri Brothers gave great dialogues to the movie. Great
emotional content in the dialogues are though provoking and also send a
message to the audience regarding the lionization of celebs. Screen
play was extremely poor, background scores for the movie were above
average but without them the movie would have failed considering the
emotional requirement. Song cinematography earns a few marks for the
movie. Editing needs improvement too.
After
Nuvvila, Havish should be admired for the improvement he made for this
movie but for the audience, it is not his improvement that counts but
his performance. On this front he has failed though he had enough screen
time. Expressions are a mess with him. Brahmanandam is the King of
comedy and he has proved it once again. The hilarity in the theaters
when he starts dancing to Megastar Chiru's and Power Star Pawan Kalyan's
hit numbers cannot be explained in words. Suman who plays the Brahmin,
and the hero's father had something lacking. Sarath Kumar was perfect in
his usual role, a police officer.
