Puri Jagannadh's Devudu Chesina Manushulu was released on independence day. The much hyped movie of Puri Jagannadh supposedly bombed at the box office as the movie didn't live up to the expectations of the audience. There was nothing special in the movie and Puri seemed to have not paid enough attention while sketching the characters. Take a quick look at the review before you watch the movie.

Story
The story revolves around two orphans—Ravi Teja and Ileana—created by Lord Vishnu (played by Brahmanandam. The story opens with Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi (Kovaisarala). Brahmanandam promises Kovai that he would show her an entertaining story and that's where the story begins (although it's not strong). Ileana will be a cab driver in Thailand while Ravi Teja will play a mediator. In a cinematic way, the couple happens to meet each other and falls in love.
Analysis :
There are many draw backs of the film. Although people don't care for logic, Puri should have not brought in Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi into the picture. Brahmanandam and Kovaisarala looked terrible as Vishnu and Lakshmi. Even on a comedy note, they really didn't fit into the role. The music of Devudu Chesina Manushulu was just okay. People were confused as to why a song came all of a sudden. Abrupt songs rubs salt into the wounds of the viewers. The background score of Raghu Kunche was not appealing. On the technical front, cinematography was not good. It could have been much, much better.
The script of DCM is weak and so is the screenplay. Although this movie was a love story, there was no proper attention paid by the director towards the love scenes. There were no punch dialogues too in DCM. The second half of the movie is certainly a set back. Right from cinematographer to costumes to script, no thumbs down to DCM.
Performance :
Ravi Teja gave his best. Ileana was okay too but emphasis was more on exposing than acting. Prakash Raj was again just ok. Ali's acting was outstanding. Brahmanandam and Kovaisarala were not okay. Since script itself was weak and so was the story, there was in fact, no scope for performance anyway.
Final Word:Entertainment lost in narration.
