Artists' performance

Sonia who was appreciated for her role as Shravs in 'Happy Days' exhibited good performance as a solo heroine in this film. She could be applauded for presenting sensitive emotions very well in some sequences.

Krishnudu who was popular with 'Happy Days' has bought the character Karthik to life. As the subject is suitable to his physique, never he seems to be acting in the role. In every scene, he exhibited apt expressions and justifies the role of 'Vinayakudu' cent-per-cent. He has literally lived out the character.

Action of Poonam Kaur as Sandy, Surya Teja as Altaf is good. To be specific, Surya Teja has exhibited much ease in performing his character. Satya Krishnan as Karthik's sister does good. Similarly, Ankith, Adarsh and Murali Krishna have emoted within the limits of their characters. After a long gap, actress Tulasi does a role in this film. Presenter Premkumar Patra, director Sai Kiran Adivi and cameraman PG Vinda appears on screen in short sequences.

Last Word

For Pure love, physical beauty is not important, only the purity in love is needed, with this beautiful message as the theme the film 'Vinayakudu' has made. What could have been a feel good entertainer for the entire crowd lags behind for it has been made pointedly for the corporate audiences. It would have been even better if it was made for everyone. But still on a whole, the debutant director Sai Kiran has hit the bull’s eye almost with his very first venture.
