Murali sharma as vamiki has done fantastic job, his role with negative shades has tremendous importance in the story. Samuthirani as Appalanaidu was ok; director should have etched his character properly. This film features assembled cast in which Jayaram stands out. Tabu as Jayaram’s wife was just ok.

Trivikram starts movie with interesting plot; adds equal amount of emotion and entertainment till the end. His dialogues are main assert, especially his one-liners; screenplay slightly lags in the middle but movie gets saved by good entertainment. In second half the boardroom scene stands out of all; it was hilarious. Climax is slightly dull may not be liked by many viewers. Most of the action blocks were concept based; they were well choreographed. Thaman’s Background score and songs are added advantage to the film; they changed mood the film. Other technical department work was pretty neat. Movie looks rich as it is well supported by good production values.

Certain scenes remind you Trivikram’s old flicks but due to his terrific screen writing, Allu Arjun’s energetic performance, mesmerizing music and good entertainment quota the movie stands out.
