Direction
Director Teja Marni deserves praise for choosing the major issue faced by police as the film’s theme. He beautifully depicted the troubles of police families and how police are manipulated by politicians. However, the constant chasing scenes throughout the movie can feel a bit boring. The story is good, but the screenplay could have been better handled. Some scenes feel dragged and could have been trimmed for a better impact. Overall, the director’s work is commendable.

Technically
Regarding technical aspects, the music by Ranjin Raj is excellent, especially the song ‘Lingidi Lingidi’ which received a great response. The background score is also a major plus for the movie. Jagadeesh’s cinematography is captivating. The editor could have been more stringent with the cutting, which would have benefited the film. The production values are also top-notch.
