Fidaa movie review, ratings by audience: Live updates

Varun Tej and Sai Pallavi's much-talked about Telugu movie Fidaa, which marks the comeback of director Sekhar Kammula, has received positive reviews and good ratings from the audiences.

Fidaa, with the tagline Love-Hate-Love, is a romantic entertainer film and director Sekhar Kammula has written the story, screenplay and dialogues for the movie, which has a runtime of 2 hours 14 minutes. The movie has received a U certificate from the censor award and it is set to be a grand treat for the family audience.

Varun (Varun Tej) is an NRI and is a medical practitioner in the US. He comes to India to arrange his older brother's marriage. While his brother gets an alliance, he falls in love with a Telangana girl Bhanumathi (Sai Pallavi), the sister of the bride. What happens next forms the crux of the story.

Varun Tej has delivered good performance in Fidaa and he impresses the viewers as an NRI. Sai Pallavi, who appears as a village belle, has good scope for acting and she has lived up to her role. She wins hearts with her Telangana accent. Raja Chembolu, Sai Chand, Sharanya Pradeep, Geetha Bhaskar, Harshvardhan Rane, Nathan Smales, Sarah Berry, Lydia Pagan and Danielle Gregory have done justice to their roles, say the audience.

Dil Raju has bankrolled Fidaa under his banner Sri Venkateswara Creations and he has made sure that the film has brilliant production values. Shakthi Kanth's music, Vijay C Kumar's picturisation, beautiful locales, fights and dialogues are the attractions on the technical front, say the audience.

We bring you some viewers' verdict on the film shared on Twitter. Here is the live update of Fidaa movie review by audience:

Siva Satish Kumar @sivasatishkumar

Fidaa - Movie : It is a complete Sekhar Kammula's Mark beautiful Love - Hate - Love story which revolves between a NRI guy and a Telangana women. Like all his other movies there are many wonderful moments captured between the lead pair. The famous Malar ( Sai Pallavi ) acted very well and her dialogues in Telangana slang is too good. Varun Tej excelled in the emotional scenes and his acting is superb. One can say that this is the Sekhar Kammula's comeback film and a memorable hit in Varun Tej's career.

#FIDAA: Finally shekarkammula is back with a beautiful love story.Though the stoey was routine..scenes between varun and pallavi will make audience involve in this movie..first half is too good . Secondhalf& climax are pretty much predictable,fantastic work from music director.
P.S: "Sai pallavi Steals the show-one piece -one time watch go and enjoy" !!
