Review in pics: Racha

Cast: Ram Charan Teja, Tamanna, Mukesh Rishi, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Brahmanandam, Ravibabu, MS Narayana and Sudha

Director: Sampath Nandi

Chiru Jr., Ram Charan Teja, portrays the role of Raj, known for winning bets.

Betting Raj, as he is popularly called, was adopted by a drunkard father (MS Narayana) and a doting mother (Sudha).

His father is diagnosed with liver cancer and the treatment requires a heavy sum of money.

Therefore, Raj takes on the challenge of winning the heart of Chaitra (Tamanna), the daughter of a billionaire. The bet would fetch him Rs 20 lakh.

As the story unfolds, Chaitra falls for Raj, but then he discovers that her life is threatened by her stepfather who eyes her vast property.

Ram Charan has put in a good performance, especially in the action sequences.

However, he needs to work on his dialogue delivery.

It's evident that Ram Charan is inspired by his father's acting and has tried to adopt the same style.

Tamanna's performance is commendable and adds to the glamour quotient of the film.

Though the movie has a predictable climax, director Sampath Nandi's tight screenplay keeps the audience hooked to the plot.

Sameer Reddy's picturesque location choices for the songs are praiseworthy.

Mani Shankar's compositions are good, specially the song Vaan Vaana Villu Vaye.

Overall, the movie is a good watch and will appeal to the mass audience.
