Veteran actresses Prabha and Ambika are a revelation in roles that you don’t expect them to do, sharing body language that is extremely loud, funny and shocking to an extent. Janani, as the overtly talking, police constable is as interesting as Swathi in Ananthapuram 1980. G.M.Kumar who acted as the godfather of the village lives his character and he holds the movie through its otherwise dull moments. Arya, whose eyes caught us unaware in Nenu Devunni does the support role easily. Whether he is dancing wearing a saree, or involved in a fighting, or jumping in complete drunkenness, or showcasing ‘navarasas’ Vishal is terrific. Vishal, as the squint eyed and good hearted thief, gets a role that gives him a lot of scope to perform, and he does. What are these things, how do both Walter and Dandalu Sami react to the situations form the rest of the story. It is during such a time that Raja Gajapathi learns of few happenings in his village, which include few things about Naga Malleshwari’s dad. Raja Gajapathi has such a strong influence in the village, that any person who hurts him becomes the enemy of the entire village. Walter, falls for a police constable Baby (Janani), while Naga Malleeshwari (Madhu Shalini) develops feelings for Dandalu. While Walter takes care of the old man, Dandalu Sami spends loads of time at the old man’s place. Problem is while Dandalu Sami seems to be adept at stealing, Walter wants to be an actor, and is patronized by Raja Gajapathi, a respected old man of the village with a soft corner for Walter. In such a street live step brothers Walter (Vishal) and Dandalu Sami (Arya), who have ‘thieving’ competition between them. Pithaapuram is a village which has a separate street for thieves. His next, Vaadu Veedu, with Vishal and Arya, is yet another ‘realistic’ tale, though it lacks the genuine ‘shock’ value that his previous films had.
Having made films like Siva Putrudu, Nenu Devunni Bala has managed to earn a good number of followers for ‘his kind’ of films. Starring : Vishal Krishna, Arya, Janani Iyer, Madhu Shalini and others.
