Young hero Suhas is on a roll, releasing films back-to-back and delivering good hits with unique stories. His latest film 'Janaka Aithe Ganaka' falls in line with this streak. Sankirthana plays the heroine. The film is produced by Dil Raju Productions and directed by Sandeep Bandla. It was released on October 12, 2024, with premieres held two days earlier. So, how is this movie? Has Suhas delivered another hit? Let's find out in this review.
Plot
Prasad (Suhas) is a middle-class man who, due to financial limitations, feels he can't provide "the best" for his children, so he decides not to have kids for the first two years of his marriage. His wife (Sankirthana Vipin) agrees with his decision, and his father (Goparaju Ramana) remains silent on the matter. However, unexpectedly, Prasad's wife becomes pregnant. Convinced that the condom failed, Prasad decides to sue the company. How does the case proceed? What changes occur in Prasad's life? Does he win the case? To find out, you have to watch the movie.
Performance Analysis
Suhas shines once again in his role as a middle-class hero. He convincingly portrays a man who insists on not having children but ends up becoming a father. Sankirthana delivers an excellent performance as Prasad's wife, playing the obedient and supportive homemaker. Rajendra Prasad, Murali Sharma, and Vennela Kishore all do justice to their roles, making for an impressive cast.
Direction
Director Sandeep Reddy Bandla scored full marks for the storyline. He presents a fresh take, distinct from routine films. He paints a vivid picture of the life of a middle-class man, his struggles after marriage, and all the expenses involved. The scenes related to pregnancy are touching and connect well with couples who might have avoided having children. The court scenes are humorously portrayed, adding light-hearted moments to the narrative. While some court scenes and the logic around child expenses lack coherence, the humor compensates for these gaps. However, the predictable storyline and lack of significant twists are the negatives.
Technical Aspects
In terms of technical aspects, the cinematography is well done. The background score is a major plus for the film, although the songs aren't particularly memorable. Editing is just okay, while the production values are top-notch, with no compromises from the producers.

Yellamma: Young Hero Confirmed for Balagam Venu’s Project, Nani and Teja Sajja Replaced!
Venu Yeldandi, who entered the industry as a comedian, built his career by playing small roles initially. He then gained popularity as a team leader in the 'Jabardasth' comedy show. Shifting gears to directing, Venu's last year's film 'Balagam' was a blockbuster success, set against a rural Telangana background and received critical acclaim. Naturally, all eyes were on Venu's next project. However, a year after 'Balagam', the absence of a new project announcement from Venu sparked mixed reactions among fans. Amidst this, there’s a strong buzz that Venu has locked a project with a young hero.
Venu Directing Nithiin!
Venu Yeldandi had previously announced that his second film would be under the banner of producer Dil Raju, who also produced 'Balagam'. The story for this second movie has been ready for a while, and Venu is expected to start production soon. It is rumored that he will be directing young hero Nithiin in his next film. Nithiin has reportedly agreed to the project after some changes were made to the story. If all goes well, the film is expected to start soon. The film, known as 'Yellamma', has also been registered as a title, generating buzz in Tollywood.
Nani, Teja Sajja Rejected!
Initially, there was significant buzz that Venu Yeldandi's next project would feature Natural Star Nani. Venu had pitched the 'Yellamma' story to Nani, but he was reportedly not satisfied with the second half of the script. Venu stood by the story, leading to Nani's withdrawal from the project. Subsequently, the story was pitched to Teja Sajja, who initially agreed, but this combination did not materialize due to unavoidable reasons. Finally, Venu presented the story to Nithiin, who gave his approval.
When Does Shooting Start?
Venu Yeldandi’s 'Yellamma' is set to start shooting in February next year. The announcement was made by producer Dil Raju during the pre-release event of 'Janaka Ayithe Ganaka'. Venu was also present at the event. As Venu approached the stage, Dil Raju from the audience asked about Yellamma's start date. Venu humorously replied, "You are the master of all actions here; you tell us. I'm ready to start tomorrow if you say so." To which Dil Raju clarified, "Let’s start in February."
