Thanvi Akanksha makes her film debut, while Seerat Kapoor has been known for her roles in films like 'Run Raja Run,' 'Tiger,' 'Columbus,' 'Okka Kshanam,' and 'Touch Chesi Chudu.'
Meenakshi Chaudhary - Shraddha Srinath
Vishwak Sen stars in 'Mechanic Rocky,' directed by Raviteja Mullapudi and produced by Ram Talluri. The film, set against a love triangle concept, features Meenakshi Chaudhary and Shraddha Srinath as the female leads. Scheduled for release on October 31, 'Mechanic Rocky' has sparked curiosity among viewers. Meenakshi Chaudhary is already well-known from films like 'Ichata Vahanamulu Niluparadu,' 'Khiladi,' 'HIT 2: The Second Case,' and 'Guntur Kaaram.' Shraddha Srinath has also captured the Telugu audience's heart with her performances in 'Jersey' and 'Saindhav.'
Tamannaah - Raashi Khanna
The fourth installment in the 'Aranmanai' series, 'Baak,' was recently released in Telugu, directed by Sundar C. It stars Tamannaah Bhatia and Raashii Khanna, who together featured prominently in a song that became quite popular among fans. Despite being a horror film, 'Baak' failed to make a significant impact at the box office.
Tamannaah - Keerthy Suresh
Megastar Chiranjeevi's last film, 'Bhola Shankar,' also featured two heroines and was directed by Meher Ramesh. Tamannaah Bhatia and Keerthy Suresh played the lead roles, with Tamannaah as Chiru's love interest and Keerthy Suresh as his sister. Released on August 11 last year, the film failed to captivate the audience.

Allu Sirish's 'Buddy': A Spirited Comeback in an Action-Packed Adventure
Cast: Allu Sirish, Gayatri Bharadwaj, Prisha Singh, Ajmal Amir, Sriram Reddy, Mohammed Ali, Mukesh Kumar, and others.
Director: Sam Antone
Music: Hip-hop Tamizha
Cinematography: Krishnan Vasant
Editor: Ruben
Producer: K.E. Gnanavel Raja
Release Date: August 2, 2024
After a considerable hiatus, Mega Hero Allu Sirish makes his comeback with the film 'Buddy', starring alongside heroines Gayatri Bharadwaj and Prisha Singh. Directed by Sam Antone and produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja under the Studio Green Films banner, this action-adventure film was released on August 2.
What's the Story?
Aditya Ram (Allu Sirish), a pilot, falls in love with Pallavi (Gayatri Bharadwaj), who works as an air traffic controller in Visakhapatnam, without ever meeting her. Just as they plan to meet, unexpected events unfold. Pallavi gets caught in a medical mafia trap and is kidnapped, falling into a coma. Her spirit enters a teddy bear that Aditya once gifted her. How does her spirit, through the teddy, reunite with Aditya? How does Aditya, with the help of the teddy, retrieve her body from the villains? What did the villain gang plan to do with Pallavi's body? This is the story.
How Did They Perform?
Allu Sirish delivers a remarkable performance as Aditya. He excels in the action sequences, showing great maturity as an actor in this film. Gayatri Bharadwaj captivates with her glamour, charming the audience every moment she's on screen. Ajmal Amir, as the villain, matches well against Sirish, impressing with his acting. Second heroine Prisha Singh delights as an air hostess. The other actors also performed commendably within their roles.
How's the Direction?
Director Sam Antone made an effort to craft a unique story with this film. The love track between Allu Sirish and Gayatri Bharadwaj is beautifully executed. The scenes that show their connection despite being physically apart are particularly entertaining for the youth. The film keeps the audience engaged with 'Kalki' and 'Jai Balayya slogans' that add energy. The action sequences involving Buddy and Allu Sirish are enjoyable. However, the director failed to maintain suspense about what happens next, with the scenes being predictable. Some irrelevant comedy scenes caused viewer fatigue. An attempt to inject humor into the crucial climax was unnecessary.
Technically...
Technically speaking, Hip-hop Tamizha's background music is a strong addition, enhancing the action scenes, although the songs themselves are not very memorable. Krishnan Vasant's cinematographer is commendable. Editor Ruben could have sharpened his cuts a bit more. Better output from the graphics department would have added value to the film. Production values are satisfactory.
Plus Points
- Allu Sirish's acting
- The love track
- Action sequences with Buddy
Minus Points
- Screenplay
- Lack of suspense
- Some boring scenes
