Performances

• Allu Arjun : He is the One Man Show in the film who is keep on improving day by day, He used a new kind of Mannerism in the film which steals the show . His dialogues delivery especially when he utters the word "Dheevuda" is so cute and his Comedy timings was awesome. He entered into the charecter of Lucky in this film. Emotional scenes that he done in the film are career best. He limited dance in the film, But still tried a new kind of Dance moves in this film for the song Down Duppa, His fights are so natural and the Dances are so simple. Simply Allu Arjun is the heart of the film

• Shruthi Hassan : She tried a new kind of charceter in this film where a unresponsive girl turned normal. He given a beauty treat as well as delivered a good performance as per her extent

• Ravi Shankar : He is a Bhojapuri Actor who debuted as a villian with this film, He acted well but his charecter was not designed well in the film.

• Kick Shyaam : Acted as a Sincere police office, But some scenes remembers Kick movie, Delivered a good performance

• Brahmanandam : He can be called as The Second hero in the film who has raised the phase of the film in the last 30 Minutes, He came as a Frustated police officer "Kill Bill Pandey" and each and every scene of his was Hilarious

• Prakash Raj: This is a very different role in his career completely acted in a comedy role as in Jalsa. Some scenes are Unrealistic with him but still they are hilarious, Director tried to use the New angle of Prakash Raj in this film

• Others : Saloni acted as a Love interest to Kick Shyaam and her charecter is very limited, Ali Again came up as a Fake Doctor as in Kick, Raghu Babu, Jaya Prakash Reddy , MS Narayana , Shiva Reddy, Thagubotu Ramesh done well. Posani Krishna Muri Charecter as Performance is Simply Out Standing

Technical Standards

Director - Surendar Reddy : Director Surender reddy used his Style in making the film, He just concentrated on the Comedy & Fights. left the logic's in the film, But still makes a good mark of Entertainment with the film, Made a clean film with all ingredients like Action, Comedy, Emotions, Etcc.  Succeeded in making a good profits to the profits for the film
Producer - Nallavalapu Srinivas (Bujji) : Movie is rich and came up with the good production values, Seems like producer put a 10% Confidence on the director and has given a good financial support for the film, This is a simple story but still crossed 55 Crores of Budget
Cinematography - Manoj paramahamsa : One of the hero behind the screen, Each and every frame of the film looks like a master piece, Used the High standard lighting for the film, Special Notes are , Allu Arjun's Entry as Cop, Interval Bang fight Scenes, Brahmi Episode
Music - S Thaman : One of the best output in Thaman's career, Songs are simply awesome and already hit, BGM of the film brings soul for the film, Used some different Instruments brings a new sound experience on screen
Art Director - Narayana Reddy : For the first time we are discussing about the art director of  the film, His name is Narayana Reddy and has given the best art work for the film, Especially for the songs like Cinema Choopistha Mama and Down Dupa. Brought a rich look for the frames of the film
