“Namo Venkatesha”, which was promised to carry loads and loads of entertainment has released. Expectation reached the peak. The movie starring Venkatesh, Trisha under the direction of Srinu Vaitla was one of the most talked movie, before its release. Whether the people continue to talk about the movie or not after the movie released, that has to be watched.

Story: Venkata Ramana (Venkatesh) is a ventriloquist by profession and performs for a association in Europe. He meets Paris Prasad (Brahmanandam) and Pooja (Trisha). Pooja is niece of Paris Prasad. Venkata Ramana falls in love with Pooja. Paris Prasad comes to know about this, and starts making Venkata Ramana a fool by telling him that Pooja loves him too. Pooja is the daughter of a rayalaseema factionist and she returns back to her village to get married to a person whom she doesn’t like. The rest of the story is, how did Venakta Ramana solve the problem and wins Pooja.

Performances: Venkatesh is at his best. It his one of his favourite genres and he acts superb. Trisha is good and she performs well in emotional scenes. Brahmanandam, as usual is very hilarious. Ali and M.S. Narayan impress. While Subbaraju, Jayaprakash Reddy, Dharmavarupu Subramanya, Kota Srinivas Rao and Telangana Shakunthala have done their job neat.

Technical Departments: While story has nothing new to it. It gives u a lot of déjà Vu. But, the direction and screenplay of Srinu Vaitla is good. He managed to get his characters to evoke laughter at the right moments and in right doses. U will never feel bored while watching this movie. Music by Devi is just average. Cinematography and Choreography are superb. The production values are top notch. It is nice to see many telugu movies nowadays are coming up with good cinematography and production values. But they should also concentrate on getting fresh stories.

Conclusion: First half is very entertaining and has not got much story in it. While the second half has some story, but bit less on entertainment quotient because of lengthy and predictable story line. But, this movie has got enough qualities to become a box office hit.
