Allu Sirish was disgusting in his first film "Gouravam". In this,
he gets a decent make over. He has walked through his role casually and done a
pleasing job. Regina Cassandra steals the show. She looked gorgeous and acted
very well too. She on screen chemistry with Sirish was good. Her eyes are too
expressive and her dressing sense gets better and better. Josh Ravi, Elluru
Seenu, Madhu had major part to play in this film. They all were promising in
their roles. Rohini seen as mother of Sirish in the film, she is competent and
did well. Posani Krishna, Babu Nayak Murali and Rao Ramesh are adequate in
their limited roles. Madhurima Banerjee looks good in the traditional village
attire. Upcoming actress Vishnu Priya looks okay in her role.
The movie begins on a positive note with plenty of room for fun and romance,
alas; it fell right into the typical happy ending type love story category that
actually didn't make any sense to majority of the viewers in reality. The
script is almost predictable at every point of the movie and hence fails to
build the much needed "emotion" as was required to match the title
and the Central theme of the Movie. It should have been screened in a funnier
manner. First half of the film is OK. But the second half is unimaginative and
was poorly handled. Narration of the film is pretty slow. Music by JB is good,
Oosi Prema Rakshasi is the best track on the screen. Cinematography by Richard
Prasad is good. The way photography is utilized in Oosi Prema Rakshasi deserves
a special mention. Editing needs loads of development. Editor could have easily
cut short the film by 10 - 15 minutes. Dialogues in the film are mediocre
(Prema Guddidi adhi FOOD pettadu, 100 Crores istha anna loggani oka ammayi nee
premaku longindi ante entha preminchindo artham chesuko, Laksha rupailu is the
kannathalli kuda amma kadhu anni cheppesthava?, Manam money pettakunda chesede
business.). Production values of Geeta Arts productions are grand.
The first half of the film is a bit entertaining and
second half turns boring. The plus points of the film are Regina Cassandra,
Music and Cinematography. The negative points are lack of establishment of feel
and in adequate screenplay. On the whole Kotha Janta could have been a better
movie if director would have taken extra care on screenplay and exciting
narration. So much could have been done with this plot, but well for a
Tollywood commercial movie with a love story involved has to end on a happy
note and so does this one. There is nothing new in the film other than KOTHA
(New!) in the title.
