While another recent Telugu movie Sitaramam is reasonably well done and deserves its success, It pains me to say Karthikeya2 becomes a money spinner without any major praiseworthy component.
The hero apart from lacking any hero material lacks the basic acting skills. The mother overacts every scene, the heroine looks good but has only two or three expressions to offer. About the attempted humor if the supporting character, the less said the better. VFX stardands are no where near today's standards.
Photography is okay, not necessarily the framing. The theme is catchy, dialogues are acceptable, but the connect between the scenes is gripping.
Even if an inferior storyline is handled by a better director and starcast, the effect vwould have been far better.
The makers hit a jackpot just because they thought of a catchy storyline.
