I have just watched Khaleja after months of its original release. Director Trivikram Srinivas joined hands with Mahesh Babu again after the success of Athadu in 2005 and this time they came out with another commercial entertainer. Part of the storyline, i.e. people dying mysteriously in a village is similar to the Hollywood film, Sahara but it has been packaged in a way that it will be an entertaining commercial flick.
Mahesh Babu has done a apt job for his role as Raju. He looks perfect in every situation, be it a comical or a serious situation. His body language is excellent. Anushka performed well alongside Mahesh.Prakashraj as the villain has done a decent job and I feel Subbaraju been under utilized in this film.
Manisharama's music is good especially Makathika Maya and Boom Shakanaka. BGM is apt for the scenes. The songs are well choreographed especially Sada Shiva is well done.
Cinematography by Yash Bhatt and Sunil Patel is good. Action choreography by Peter Hein and Ram-Laxman deserves a mention although there are some physics defying stunts. Sreekar Prasad's editing is crisp although part of the second half could have been cut short.
In a nutshell, Khaleja is the usual commercial stuff packed with action, romance and comedy but for variety it's laced with environmental issues and a bit of religious beliefs.
