1 - Nenokkadine

Credit for this movie first goes to Director Sukumar for perfect execution of Story which he want to portray. Secondly Mahesh Babu showed his guts in accepting this movie.

For the First Time, A Telugu movie viewer Tasted a Hollywood range movie in Telugu Film Industry. The Film from Tip to Bottom portrays an extraordinary Thriller gripping the audience.

Without any unwanted Comedy sequences, Film mainly concentrates on the Story line. Title 1 Nenokkadine Justifies with only Gowtham's Quest to find his identity.

Though the common audience confuses with Kriti Sanon character in the first half, Director handled that confusion very Handily before Interval.

Screenplay was Extraordinary. Background Music by Devi Sri Prasad gave a new life to the movie, though the songs are misplaced. Cinematography is the main Asset for the movie, it made the film a visual Grandeur.

Mahesh Babu looks Very Handsome in the movie.

Some People may need a second watch to understand the complexity in the script. Hollywood Movie Buffs will like the movie a lot.

Overall A Welcoming Change to Telugu Film Industry.

I Rate 9 out of 10 (HIT)

if you are a regular telugu movie fan....u will never develop yourself......It is a complete different movie and just rocking... mahesh performance was awesome and overall movie was a top class......those who want to watch a different telugu film apart from regular films....1- NENOKKADINE is the best choice i recommend.....Frankly speaking i enjoyed the film a lot .. Kriti sanon plays the role of journalist who was perfectly apt for the character The movie contains a lot of twists which makes the film more interesting.... Mahesh babu dances are the best so far.... songs are upto d mark....

Talking about "1" , It's simply a one man show and the man who dared to make such a film with such a big star of TFI really needs to be applauded.Firstly talking about Mahesh Babu , who as usual , did a really good job in his new kinda character which he never ever essayed before in his career. Gautam Krishna , was cute and made his presence felt. When it come to the story line of the film which is so fragile that Sukumar moulded it into a solid massive 'ONE' with his talent of writing a highly gripping screenplay. Yes , I do admit that the screenplay and story is an inspiration from a 2002 Hollywood blockbuster "The Bourne Identity" , but don't label it to be a copy , no. In the first half , the director did miss a lot of logics and left many lose ends which remain untied , but the pacy and even more gripping second half makes you overlook all those small tweaks and flaws in the screenplay. The length of the second half was a little too long since the director had to incorporate the unwanted commercial elements , simply to attract masses , which should have been taken care about. The best scene of the whole film is the Interval scene. And when it comes to the tech department , the first man to get an applause is the DOP , 'Rathnavelu'. The best visuals were in "Sayonara" and "Your My Love" songs. The fight scenes were taken greatly , the DOP used different colours for different situations. The editor 'Karthika Srinivas' , 'Swamy Ra Ra' fame , did a really good job. Needs to be appreciated. Kriti Sanon was very glamorous and gorgeous and pulled off her character well, Dancing was good and was a nice pick against Mahesh. Overall , this "ONE" does have those so called "Hollywood Standards" and even has an ample dose of family sentiment. Bored of routine family drama or senseless mass flick , grab a ticket for "ONE" which leaves you with a good feeling when you leave the theatre. Really a 150 buck worth flick.

The story of the film looks very simple. But the screenplay is highly complex. There are various layers like revenge, a psychological disorder, eagerness to know about roots and corporate greed. There are a few amazing screenplay tricks in the movie. Director Sukumar added 20% more commercial appeal to what needed for a psychological thriller, but stayed with the theme of the film most of the times. The length of the film should have been taken care of and the screenplay should have been crisp and racy. There are certain issues with the film - heroine interaction in Goa episodes appear repetitive and there is no scope for songs in this kind of thriller. Sukumar has followed Hollywood style and orientation by narrating the film in a classy way. We do expect the death of villain as the final frame of a typical Telugu movie. But there is a lot to the story after the villain's death. I loved the way he connected the titles episode of the film to the climax and how parents faces are revealed. There is lot of detailing in the film and some people might need a second viewing to understand the nuances and innuendos in the movie.

1 nenokkadine is a movie which has been making the headlines since the release of its first and second teasers. the director and other crew members were saying this will be a different movie and mahesh babu himself said that this will be one of his best films .

coming to the movie , it starts with a song which has become quite popular by now in the youth(WHO R U) . the way the hero's condition was explained was not satisfying enough but mahesh carried the first half on his shoulders with some good acting and killer looks . he has become lean and fit , looks quite energetic in the movie. comedy is not very much part of the script but the inline comedy between the scenes was fair enough . the romance parts at the beach and other places was good.

the interval was just superb with the twist included and mahesh was so very good in that scene .

the second half picks up pace from where it left and this is where the audience gets to know the actual story of the film . the action scenes in the second half are breathtaking and every scene is a visual delight.

mahesh babu was excellent in the film with his own style and looks in the movie

kriti sanon - not a popular name till now but her acting skills are very good . A promising actress with nice looks .

all the other casting members made their roles look good enough .

positives -

mahesh babu ( from dressing styles to acting ) the action sequences the screenplay the plot twists music and BGM by devi sri prasad

negatives -

less entertainment factor slow narration not much scope for a heroine in this movie

overall one of the best film of mahesh babu and a different storyline altogether .

a must watch if you are a movie lover and are quite bored of the regular mass masala movies in the Telugu film industry.

hats off to mahesh babu for choosing such a different script .
