Rating: 1.5/5
Cast: Sai Dharam Tej, Larissa Bonesi, Mannara Chopra, Rajendra Prasad, Ajay, Ali, Satya, Saptagiri, Anand, Raghubabu, Posani Krishna Murali and Others.
Cinematography: KV Guhan

Story: Dawood
Screenplay: Dawood-Suneel Reddy
Direction: Sunil Reddy
Release Date: 13th August 2016
After a disaster like 'OM' with Kalyan Ram, Director Sunil Reddy took a long gap and finally arrived with 'Thikka'. Teaming up with a hat-trick hero like Sai Dharam Tej has certainly helped the project generate good buzz. Did Sunil Reddy bounced back or not?
Synopsis:
Anjali (Larissa Bonesi) enters into the life of Aadi (Sai Dharam Tej) after an accident and changes him completely from thereafter. However, The Love Birds call for break-up after Anjali complains Aadi doesn't love her as much as she love him. That's when Aadi hosts a break-up party in a bar. It was then few new characters enter the scene one after the other only to complicate the situation. What has Aadi done to come out of this mess and win the heart of Anjali again forms the rest of the tale.
Performances:
Audience were clueless how a Hero like Sai Dharam Tej has accepted such a subject. Except for Dances, Nothing much to talk about him. He should be very careful while choosing the scripts, else such duds will follow.
None of the female leads, Larissa Bonesi and Mannara Chopra were impressive. Better not to discuss about their acting skills.
Rajendra Prasad is wasted. The look of Ali and the kind of make-up used for his bald-head is worse. Rest of the actors too failed to make an any impact.
Pros:
Music
Cinematography
Production Values
Cons:
Performances
Screenplay
Direction
Technicalities:
The best part about 'Thikka' would be the music of SS Thaman. 'Nee Kosam', 'Vellipoke' and Title Track were impressive. Background Score is good. KV Guhan did a splendid job. Dialogues were poorly written. Production Values were rich. One must say Director Sunil Reddy learnt nothing from 'OM' failure. He wasted so much money on a project which neither had a decent story nor gripping screenplay.
Analysis:
Yes, The title 'Thikka' & tagline 'Unlimited' are so apt for this project. Telugu Audience mayn't have watched a such a crap in the recent past. Makers of 'Thikka' showed how a film can be made with a terrible characterizations, senseless screenplay and below par performances.
15 Minutes into the film, Viewer would start scratching his/her head as no one knows why so many silly characters come and go during the course of the movie. The confusion created by countless artistes will test the patience of audience within the First Half. One need to have lot of courage to watch the latter half of the movie.
Basically, 'Thikka' is based on the incidents in the life of the Youth in a span of one day. In almost all the scenes, At least one actor will be seen holding a liquor bottle in his hand. Particularly, Hero behaves as if he can't live without it. Either the lead actor would be seen drinking one bottle after the other or bash up people.
Although the run time is just 2 hr 20 min, 'Thikka' is hardly watchable. No one knows why the Director burnt the pocket of the Producer with unwanted chasing scenes, fights and songs. The Burqa comedy which lasts for 30 minutes is painful to watch. Don't be surprised if you feel 'Rey' is better than 'Thikka' after stepping into the theatres.
Bottomline: Unbearable Thikka!
