Story

 

The film was very crucial for the career of Nitin as he is making a desperate bid to come back in a big way in his second innings. Nitin does a good job and scores some high marks but the director lets him down with some sloppy direction in the second half.

 

Jagan (Nitin) is a carefree young boy of a rich industrialist Nagababu. His mother Jayasudha pampers him as he is the youngest of them all. But father Nagababu wants to see his son take life seriously and become something in life.

 

Nitin meets Sunanda (Kajal Agarwal) and after some interaction and misunderstanding, they both fall in love with each other.

 

The city is in the grip of MLA Bonala Shankar (Dr Sivaprasad). He terrorizes everyone, including his own party ministers and the chief minster with his wild ways. His main line of business is selling tobacco related products. He makes Raghuvaran, Nagababu‘s rival in business as his partner.

 

Raghuvaran and Nagababu decided to merge their companies. Nagababu wants to get his son married to Raghuvaran’s daughter. Incidentally she also happens to be Nitin’s lover Kajal.

 

Nitin learns that Raghuvaran is trying to use his father’s god name to push tobacco products. Nitin enters the scene and sees to it that Raghuvaran does not succeed in his mission. In the process, he also rubs Bonala Shankar the wrong way.

 

Nitin takes on the mighty MLA in a novel way be defaming in public. The rest of the story is how Nitin clears all the mess and gets back his love.

 

Nitin comes across as a carefree youngster in a very convincing way. Nitin has also improved is body language as well as style. He also shakes his legs very well in the dance scenes. The film should get Nitin some good marks as a mass hero.

 

Kajal Agarwal keeps him adequate company with her looks as well as performance. She is now the leading actress in Tollywood with a series of hits to her credit.

 

The villain Dr Sivaprasad is refreshingly different from the routine villains that one comes across in film after film. He does a neat job and is good both as a ruthless rowdy in the first half as well as a comic villain the second half. Raghuvaran looks very old and shaky. He passed away recently and this could perhaps be his last film in Telugu. Nagababu, Jayasudha, Venu Madhav and others do their jobs as per the demands of the script.

 

The songs are fast paced and Nitin dances well in the songs. There is also an item number by Mumaith Khan. The song “Style… Style… Aatadistha” is one the best in the film. Another song ‘Pappi Dee Chumma Dee” is also good. Some dialogues evoke laughter but on the whole, the comedy is very less.

 

The film works well till the interval bang but in the second half, it drags and drags and ends all too abruptly. The audience is still waiting for Nitin to start his ‘Aata’ as the title ‘Aatadistha’ suggests but we see the ‘subham’ card.
