Artists Performance:
Naga Chaitanya: A slight improvement was noticed in his performance comparing with his previous movie Josh. He already proved in his diction, and so is in this movie. There is no scope of showing his dances and fights as the subject does not demand them. His romantic expressions remind us his father's looks in many angles. On a whole he gets pass marks for his performance.
Samantha: What a fascinating lady she is? Of recent times, she stands the best of many heroines who have been introduced to Tollywood. Her attraction dominates her beauty. She was mostly seen in Sarees than the modern dresses, especially in cotton sarees, which enhanced her charm, further which lead to enthrall many male hearts.
Others: Krishnudu of Vinayakudu fame did his real life character i.e. a hero. He has given enough scope to show his innocent and decent performance. Good job by him. Others did their best.
Songs Analysis:
Song #1(Ye Maaya Chesave): A wonderful picturization between hero and heroine. The dancing steps were cute. Buildings of abroad were so nice. Samantha was seen in cream sarees with different colored bordered sarees with matching blouses. Most enchanting looks were noticed.
Song #2(Kundanapu Bomma): Another duet with foreign male dancers. Tall trees with dried leaves fallen on the floor were very beautiful. Perhaps, this song might have picturized in spring season.
Song #3(Naake Sontham): An average picturization. Duet song. A ship filled with ice setting was good.
Song #4(Vinunna): Picturized in back waters of Alleppey. A beautiful montage song. Beauty of Kerala was marvellous.
Song #5: A music based song between the hero and the heroine.
Song #6(Manasa): Last song of the movie. Both melody and fast beat was observed in this duet. Good to watch.
Lip Lock Special:
Kiss #1: Hero kisses Samantha in train to provoke her to fall in love with him in Kerala. Nice gestures by Samantha.
Kiss #2: It happens before the song#4 when Jessie eagerly wants to meet him, however, he meets her despite not caring his busy schedule in his profession.
Kiss #3: After a gap of three years hero meets heroine in London, where the repententance between the lovers take place. Reconciliation takes place and both of them kiss each other. Good picturization.

Technical Department:
Story, Screenplay and Direction:
After a long gap a clean romantic love story has come out in Tollywood. Though the story is nothing, it was because of the screen play the movie can stand well at the box office. Director Goutam Menon deserves appreciations for that. First half of the movie is fantastic while the second half is slowed down. Entire story runs between hero and the heroine, might be a bit harmful to the fate of the movie especially in B and C class centres. However, in A centers the result of the movie may be outstanding as the movie consists of youth appeal.
Music:
AR Rahman's first hit movie of Tollywood is given by Naga Chaitanya now. 'Ye Maaya Chesave', 'Kundanapu bomma' and 'Manasa' songs are good and others are average. His background score is terrific and of very high standard. That's the power of Rahman.
Pros:
1. Heroine's glamour
2. Music
3. Love story after a long gap
Cons:
1. Story runs only between two characters.
Bottom Line: A must watch film for lovers and the youth.
