First of all, it is a great movie but it is one of those movies which can't be watched more than once. The film at times tries to be too many things at once and tries too hard at conveying a message at times. However the film conveys a good message. But something feels off many a times, be it dialogue delivery or screenplay. Some scenes just come off to be artificial.
Nonetheless, still a good and quite inspirational movie.

The story revolves around a young man who tries to help the society with his engineering ideas but fails to get recognised. Then he get inspired when life teaches him a hard lesson in relationship and few other things. The content was packed as a decent commercial flick which doesn't have much impact on the message it tried to convey.
Inspirational Movie

Warning: Spoilers
A Good movie of an innovative,creative talented engineer trying to help people,constantly facing failures from a society which gives Success on its terms rather than welfare of the people and this Rejected Hero's calculated daring attempt in helping to save people. The movie's characters following society sterotypes always watching their own back is interesting and finally disproved by the hero's life risking daring attempt is brilliant!!
Kishore Tirumala done a good job with a very interesting and exciting twist to make it a very decent ending...Every aspirant who wants to achieve their goal but succumb to rejection constantly,could easily connect to the movie...
Patience pays and so does perseverance! And thats how the film builds the pace. Very well laid out story and subtle editing. Overall a really good film...

A good movie which can give you inspiration. Indeed the concept will touch you.
This is movie of a dreamer who always dreamed to make a device that helps people to connect in the emergency medical situation. Movie depicted his struggle to survive against different odd things like unemployment, love and so on...

1st of all I went to this film without any expectations but within a few minutes I'm into this film....personally totally connected with that character.... Songs are good but picturization was too good.... There are some speed breaker scenes but at Last a good movie
Logical and realistic movie
gopikrishna-cp19 May 2019
One needs to learn from their own mistakes and accept failures to succeed, we all know this but it is indeed very difficult for each one of us to follow it in our lives. Struggling to survive in this selfish and competitive world, this movie highlights the realistic problems and dream killers.
Loved the way, director ran the script. Usually, one movie delivers only one message. In my opinion this movie has been successful in delivering not one but many more lessons.
Thanks to all the movie making team for a great watch. Genuinely appreciated.

Title was just to gain attention
flywithmeraman8 April 2023
Chitra lahari is a programme of 90s in DD channel which telecasts that generation songs. The conundrum of fight between defeat and victory is basically the essence of the storyline.
The relationship of family, friendship, love and professional paths are amalgamated if not finely tuned, are mostly projected maturely. But nevertheless the Director had thought to close the loose ends in a cinematic and emotional way. The closing and opening court room drama is a dry cherry topping, which was an extra purposeless seasoning, even if removed wouldn't have diluted the essence of the storyline. Some dialogues did give a boost to the attempt.
The lead characters did serve the justice to the storyline effectively.

A successful and unsuccessful story of an engineer in love and life.
sarthakdhoke6 December 2020
Loved a lot by watching the movie of an Unsuccessful Engineer.
He fails in life, he fails in love, but he never gives up.
His father always encouraged him to do something and never thinks about the failure in the life.
He made a app in the movie for the road accident situation, when an accident occurs then that app sends the location of place to the nearby Hospital and Police Station.
And then he became the successful man in his life, successful in his love.
A best love, drama, suspense, comedy and tragedy movie.
Everyone must watch it.
Inspiring and emotional. A must watch.
maanasnandu13 April 2019
Beautifully written movie, the dialogues were outstanding. A perfect blend of every emotion, loved the dialogue at the end, "if a topper succeeds, it's just an accomplishment; if a failure succeeds, it's a history." Each and every scene in the second half was hard hitting. A must watch one for the people who never quit trying!
Superb movie

Inspiration for budding entrepreneurs
surajpanigrahi-1830114 April 2020
I just loved this movie. There are very few Telugu movies I have watched the second time. This is one such movie. Sai Dharam Tej is spot on with his acting as a passionate entrepreneur.
There were those elements of comedy scenes with Vennela Kishore that didn't make much sense and pulled down the movie, diluting its essence. I believe those scenes were unnecessary or it could have been different.
However, the movie gave me goosebumps and it is definitely an original concept. A must watch for budding entrepreneurs out there.
Punch lines: 1. "Success just takes time." 2. "Not everyone who dreams will be Kalam. If Kalam thought so, he too would have remained an ordinary man."
