Naga Chaitanya Akkineni and director Vikram K Kumar who earlier worked together for the film Manam are back with their new film titled Thank You. Dil Raju bankrolls the film. Raashi Khanna is the female lead of the movie. The film was released today check out the review of the film here.

Story:
Abhiram (Naga Chaitanya), born into a middle-class family, wants to become successful in life by going to the USA. Priya (Raashi Khanna) helps him financially. In the process of realizing his dream, Abhiram loses his originality. He becomes selfish and is filled with pride. However, an incident changes Abhiram's life completely, after which he embarks on a journey of gratitude. What is that incident? What did Abhiram do? How did he transform again? Forms the story of the movie.

Performances:
Naga Chaitanya is a big plus for the film. As an actor, he improved a lot and portrayed the variations in the film very well. The story and screenplay of the film is tailor-made for Chay. There are two shades in Chay's role, and he played them well. Raashi Khanna's role also came out well.

The chemistry between Chay and Raashi is impressive. Malavika Nair and Avika Gor too, played their parts well. Both performed well and supported the lead cast. Sai Sudhanth Reddy is impressive too. His performance is good too. Sampath Raj and Prakash Raj are good too. The rest of the cast is good and made their presence felt.

Technical Aspects:
Vikram K Kumar always makes sure to come up with a new point. The director, however, failed to include it in this film. Vikram K Kumar is someone who always comes with freshness in the script. The director had an interesting plot point, but the screenplay was not at all interesting.

Thaman's music failed to impress. Both his songs and background score could not impress the audience. PC Sreeram's camera work is highly impressive. His framing is too good. The conversations are good. The production values are lavish.

Review:
The film starts on an interesting note. With some entertainment in the first half, Naga Chaitanya tries to take us into the story. The flashback scenes have come out well. The interval point is attractive, but the hype generated is not carried well in the movie's second half. The second half is boring, while the first half is too good. The film has multiple flashbacks, which slows down the flow at which the film progresses. The emotional scenes could have been better, and so is the film's climax. The narration is slow, and the film disappoints big time. Overall, the film is good in parts but not in the flavor of Vikram K Kumar.

Plus Points:
Naga Chaitanya
First Half
PC Sreeram's visuals

Minus Points:
Narration
Screenplay
Music
Slow second half

Final verdict: No 'Thank You'
