Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy Movie Review
Chiranjeevi has put up a one man show. The action sequences, Horse riding, war sequences, and everything else, the megastar didn’t leave any stone unturned. This movie will be a treat to watch for Chiranjeevi’s fans and admirers.
The casting is perfect. Seems like there couldn’t have been a better Guru than Amitabh Bachchan. Vijay Sethupathi, Kichcha Sudeep, Jagapathi Babu, Nayanthara, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah do complete justice to their characters.
Julius Packaim’s terrific background score keeps the film on a high throughout. Amit Trivedi’s songs are one of the pillars of this movie. Director Surender Reddy and the crew deserves applause for its technical brilliance. The artwork of the movie seems spotless.
Overall, the film is 171 minutes of legendary storytelling, brilliant storytelling, terrific artwork, and technical brilliance. We didn’t reveal the story because we don’t want to spoil your experience. Don’t miss this movie on the big screen.
