Sr.NTR is incredible as Thota Ramudu in this film. His histrionics, body language during stunts were trend setting by the time the film was released. It literally turned his career to a new dimension with the tremendous success the film achieved. SVR is fantastic as the evil wizard, and his facial expressions and dialogue delivery speaks millions worth of his acting skills. The fantastic chemistry between the Hero and Villian played by Sr. NTR and SVR was instrumental in making the film a huge success.
