Story
Dorababu( Srikanth), Amalapuram playboy tires to woo Swapna(Vidisha) just like he did for others. However he has change of mind when his grand mother blasts him after knowing his evil instincts. Swapa (Vidisha) however fall in love with him after watching him undergo change which is not appreciated by her Grand Father (Ranganath) who happens to be a teacher. In the mean time Peddayya(Jayaprakash Reddy) and his brother tries to demolish old hidden temple for his cement factory.
Archaelogist(Sivaji Raja) tries to find out the connection between the temple and Sri Krishna Devaraya,by entering the village. Suddenly Dorababu starts behaving in a odd manner and tries to obstruct his evil designs. What is the connection between Dorababu and Royal King Srikrishna Devaraya has to be found on silver screen.
Performance
Srikanth's role as Dorababu has nothing much to offer while in Sri Krishna Devaraya he used the mannerisms to NTR and Balakrishna to the core. He reminds all of Balakrishna in Aditya 369. Both heroines Vidisha and Meenakshi Dixit did not get much scope for performance.
Vidisha looked hot, while Meenakshi sizzled in traditional dances during Devaraya sequence. Balayya, Ranganath, Sivaji Raja, M.S. Narayana, Raghu Karumanchi and Jayaprakash Reddy completed the other cast.
Technicals
Production values are below standard. Chakri failed in giving good music and background score. Cinematography, eidting and everything failed collectively. Director's weak storyline and unconvincing screenplay showed his inexperience.
Analysis
Director Nani Krishna seemed to be lost as to where to begin and where to end. First half of the movie is substandard and doesn't appeal even to masses. Heroism is not highlighted in any manner and females willnot appreciate Srikanth's characterisation of Dorababu. Love track is not established properly and even the connection between Dorababu and Devaraya is not convincing.
Srikanth's dances are below average. However he looked royal as Srikrishna Devaraya. Director tried mixing chandramuki, damarukam and many other films and successfully failed even in copying them.Climax insults the intelligence of movie lovers.
Final Talk
Devaraya turns disastrous for Srikanth.
