Andhracafe.com- You've to give this film some credit for guts. No style, no substance and zero star-power… And yet it carries a flamboyant flag for that frisky female fantasia known as The Wanton Woman.

Like Katrina in the minor cult film in Malleshwari and Charmee in the recent Anukokunda Okaroju, one expects them to do something better than prancing around trees, but all they do here is care for Balayya.

God knows where the writer has picked up the core of his idea. This atrociously packaged film slithers downhill at an alarming rate. Wish there was someone to nurse the narration back to health. Alas the scriptwriter seems to have gone on a long holiday after giving the director a skeletal plot line. This film which released on October 5 is going to be a major disappointment for Balakrishna fans. According to a movie buff, there are no power dialogues, no mirch masala that is expected from the hero despite him assuming a dual role.

The only redeeming factor is Balakrishna's glamorous look and his performance. What can the poor man do when there is no strong support from the screenplay department? Charmee with her skin show and Katrina Kaif's wooden expressions fail to excite the crowds. The synopsis of the story ... the younger son who is neglected by the father turns out to be an extraordinary son.

Sadly director Jayant jumps from one level of despair to another leaving the scenes looking like half-baked dishes with not enough garnishes to keep the guests from losing their temper. Camera work is good and the scenes look rich enough but songs aren't that soulful. Watch the film if you don't want entertainment.
