TELUGUCINEMA:

ANALYSIS:

Like all Venkatesh's films, Tulasi too relies more on sentiment and romance. Apart from them, we have good action sequences in this movie. In Tulasi, the wife-husband romance and child sentiment drama is well mixed with the faction drama. Director Boyapati Srinivas has handled it perfectly. Despite familiar storyline and scenes, 3/4th of the film is neat and interesting. Action sequences and right balance of sentiment works. Akula Shiva who has written Venkatesh's blockbuster, Lakshmi, has given the basic script for this film. So we can easily spot the similar situations here too. Yet, the director puts all the commercial ingredients at regular intervals and makes the film interesting. Venkatesh makes you cry in some sentiment scenes like in all movies. That's enough for success for his movies.

On the flip side, it has weak second half. In the last twenty minutes, 'excess drama' kills the pace and makes you get sulking. There are also some glitches too.

What makes stand out in the film are action sequences..

1. Venkatesh taking up sword to teach a lesson to the baddies who insulted his father during the Z.P elections is awesome. It is best action episode we have seen in the recent times.

2. Hospital scene where Venkatesh tells the secret about the child. It is sentiment scene that makes you moist-eyed.

3. Pre-interval action episode is also good. Read More...

IDLEBRAIN:

ANALYSIS:

First half of the film is mediocre. Second half is better. But the climax of the film is inhumane. The plus points of the film are Venkatesh and the seema flashback episode. The negative points of the film are excessive violence in second half and inconsistency in the story narration. The commercial success of the film depends on how masses embrace this film.

GREATANDHRA:

ANALYSIS:

It's an attempt to target youth, families, masses and ladies at a time. But the blends cannot prove to be a right mix. If ladies like sentiment, they can't accept violence. If masses like violence they can't swallow sentiment. But on a whole the film proves to be a right commercial masala flick. It has got the ability to sustain audience in theatres except a few cigarette songs.

First half of the film is made with humor and love track. Venkatesh's pranks with Nayanatara sound interesting. Second half is filled with action episodes. Sentiment follows under current in the film. Mass audiences cracked jokes among themselves when sentiment on Venkatesh is rolling on screen. So, the dosage would have crossed the expectation to some extent.

On a whole, the film proves to be a flick that can be watched once without expecting something unpredictable and novelty. Read More...

FILMCHAMBER:

ANALYSIS:

Weak romance, overdose of action, outdated child sentiment and overused faction cult – combined forms the shape of Tulasi. Over all, it disappoints, if you are looking for a family entertainer in this film. But, Dassera vacation might help the film to collect good revenue. Read More...

BHARATSTUDENT:

ANALYSIS:

The film runs well in B, C centers well for the action episodes and it will do well with sentimental stuff in A centers. On a whole it is a film that brings back the deposits in cool way. Big profits may not be expected as of now. The fate of this film depends on new releases nearby down the line. Read More...
