Rashmika's performance is good though she is new for tollywood, she will get the huge fan following after this film.
Other important roles such as Naresh (hero father's role) comedy timing at the starting of first half is very hilarious. Viva Harsha, satya done justice to their role. Vennela Kishore pshyco comedy is good and others has acted up to their standards. Production values are good, IRA creations is a Naga shourya's family production. More over it has lead by Usha mulpuri. She bankrolled this film in a rich manner. Visuals are pretty and used the technicians well. Sagar Mahati songs and background score added attraction for the film. Songs are looking very good and also picturizing is awesome. Kotagiri, Bikkina editing is good.
