Not a single film of Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu was released last year. His film Guntur Karam will be released in theaters in the new year. But just as there was enthusiasm among the audience before the release of this film, similarly after the release of the film, the same enthusiasm is not seen among the audience.

Mahesh Babu's Telugu film Sarkaru Vaari Paata was released in 2022. At the same time, Mahesh Babu collaborated with the film's writer and director Trivikram Srinivas after 14 years. Mahesh Babu worked with director Trivikram Srinivas in the 2010 film Khalija. The chemistry that Mahesh Babu had with the director in this film is not visible in the film Guntur Karam.

The film Guntur Karam starts with a flashback. Veera Venkat's father Raman Satyam is in jail on murder charges and his mother Vasundhara leaves him and comes to Hyderabad. Veera Venkata Raman spent his childhood in his native village and was involved in the chilli business during his childhood. After coming to Hyderabad,

Vasundhara enters politics on the advice of her father Venkata Swamy and father becomes the Law Minister. Satyam has served his sentence and after coming out of jail he no longer wants to date anyone. Vasundhara's family wants Veera Venkata Raman to sign an agreement to end all relations with his mother. The purpose of this move is to snatch away the status of legal heir from him so that Vasundhara's son from the second marriage can inherit the political legacy.

Director Trivikram Srinivas has also written the story of the film. The weak story and script of the film spoiled the whole game. The emotional scene that was supposed to happen between mother and son was not presented well. The result was that the audience could not sympathize with the film. After watching the film, it seems that Trivikram Srinivas has put the focus of the story on his character to please Mahesh Babu and this seems to be the biggest mistake of the director.

The more the film's story progresses, the more its impact diminishes. The thing about South films is that they work hard on their action scenes, but if the same hard work was done on the story and script of the film, it would have been a better film.

Mahesh Babu played the role of Veera Venkata Raman in this film. His action avatar in the film is good as Kagemusha helps in this. But when it comes to acting, Mahesh Babu fails in every scene. He is also not in the film Jugalbandi with Srileela. Sreeleela had nothing special to do in this film.

Ramya Krishnan has left a good impression as Vasunhara, Venkat Raman's mother, but looking at her performance in this film, it seems that she has not left behind the role of Sivagami Devi from Baahubali.

Veera is Jayaram as Venkata Raman's father Satyam, Prakash Raj as Venkata Swamy, Jagapathi Babu as Marx, Murali Sharma as Srileela's father Pani and Sunil Mahan as Marx's younger brother Lenin. These veteran stars could have done better, but here too the film's writer-director Trivikram Srinivas seems to have made a big mistake.

Manoj Paramahamsa's cinematography is satisfactory. The film's editor Naveen Noori had complete freedom to remove unnecessary scenes, but in this case too he went out of control. Thurman's music is full of noise.
