As ‘Power’ got superb openings living up to the image of Raviteja and the success pulse of ‘Balupu,’ yet the verdict from critics and reviewers was not completely encouraging. Director Bobby relying more on run of the mill story and zero novelty narration did not impress a section of clever audience. However, the effect was not visible on collections because opening day is bumper for any star hero film.
If Manchu Vishnu’s ‘Anukshanam’ gets on to a positive talk, then ‘Power’ may have to weaken a bit. Although both the films belong to two different genres and are contrasted making, starring wise, one has to see how far Vishnu can capitalize on the situation because RGV is no more a brand on which audience are ready to spend the ticket money.
