Everyone wants to take a picture with their favourite movie star, yet society as a whole pays them little attention. Why is that? This issue has been subtly handled by director Indraganti Mohan Krishna through the telling of a love tale between a director and a doctor. He discusses the problems with how society views moviemakers, but he also emphasises the challenges facing filmmakers in getting a movie funded, such as the casting couch, gossip magazines, etc.
As per usual, Indraganti spends a long time getting to the crux of the matter. The first half moves at a sluggish pace and is beset by numerous problems in the story. Fortunately, the climactic hour makes sense, and it significantly changes the otherwise uninteresting story. There are times when I'm truly impressed. The logical narrating style of Indraganti is evident. Those come and go. The total is ineffective. The story's twist and how the middle was handled were something I appreciated. However, Indraganti's treatment of casting couch problems and rumours is out of date with today's culture. Furthermore, he appears to have remained with certain cast members and outdated concepts.
