Story:  

The movie begins with the protagonist (Balayya) narrating the famous dialogue of Legendary actor NTR in The original Narthanasala. The dialogue gives a prologue of Dushhera, and later in the sequences, the movie transcends to a discussion between Pandavas. Pandavas' discuss the disguise they want to take up for the remaining year left after their 12 years of Agnyaathavaasam. If caught with their real identities, they have to go into exile for another 13 years. Here, they pick up the disguises they wish to have to keep a low profile and break it on the day of Vijaya Dasami (Dusshera).  

Review:  

Touted to be the directorial debut of Nandamuri Balakrishna, doesn't quite pique the curiosity among the audience. The movie, which was shelved long back for various reasons, could only recall the long lost memories. Rather than a film, it can be treated as a memoir to remember the long-gone actors and actresses. 

Though lasting for 16 odd minutes, it lacks all that it requires to qualify even as a short film, if not a film released on an OTT platform. The audience would be disappointed to get a glimpse of Ballaya's directorial skills, as the movie has anything to offer apart from the lines drawn from the original flick. 

The sequencing of shots is something that needed extra attention as some were raw footage captured from Balayya's previous movies. Even a fan-made video would have been much better than this if otherwise, the moviemakers took extra pain to include CGI instead of raw footage.  

The cast is the only highlight of the movie, which includes legendary Ballaya, the heartbeat of South Industry late actress Soundarya, the all dynamic late actor Real star Sri Hari and the lover boy, late Uday Kiran.  

It's worth watching for those late stars and the charity concept behind the release.  

Verdict:  

Watch it to recall the memories of great stars of Tollywood.
