After Legend Balaiah Babu has created another sensation at Box office with Gautamiputra Satakarni.Balakrishna is the Sankranthi Hero and proved beyond doubt that it is a reality. Especially Khaidi getting a good talk it is good that Sathakarni also has got a super hit talk and a different movie about the history form Telangana and Andhra.
The 100th milestone movie for the hero from Nandamuri Family has become a memorable one.
Balakrishna has suited for the role in the best form and proved that no one can do like this. This movie is related with Telangana and Amaravathi history and is the pride of Telugu people.
One Nation one ruler is the basic theme of the movie where the king wants to get everything under one roof for him. King Sathakarni wins wars and trounces Sahapanudu (kabirbedi).He becomes the single ruler of Akhanda Bharath. But Alexander wants a different kind of Bharath under greek ruler Demitharus.They try to poison the king Sathakarni to get rid of him.
What Sathkarni does after this and how he trounces others is the movie.
It looked like the movie is tailor made for Balakrishna. Some scenes with his mother Hemamalini and his wife Sreya are good with emotion. There were tears for audience in some scenes where they felt very emotional.
The fight scenes were done well within the given time.The movie depicts the pride of Telugu people. Balakrishna has done full justice to the role of a ruthless king.His father NTR was reminded in this movie.
Some scenes during Rajasuya yagam are taken very well. The dialogues are great, but some war action could have been reduced where Balaiah fights extensively which was not required.
The dialogues are like bullets and Krish the director has done exceptionally well in using Balakrishna for the movie.
It is almost the movie of the hero. Film from Balaiah for Balaiah and only for him. Hemamalini is great in mothers role and Sreya also did her part adding glamour to Balaiah.Technically also the movie has come out well.It is a visual treat and the music is different. Saimadhav dialogues are good.
There is no looking back for Balakrishna. With the blessings from Telangana CM KCR and AP CM Chandrababu the movie has become a sensational hit.
