Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi is an another feather in the Gen Next series of films that has taken Tollywood by storm in the recent years. Thanks to its director Tarun Basker's vision & style, Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, runs a riot in terms of its style and flair. Though the movie has an rather predictable storyline & screenplay, Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi pulls the all right high scoring punches, thanks to its characters, casting and hilariously astonishing dialogues spread throughout the film.
Aided with some good cinematography and an excellent humour laced screenplay Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, makes the necessary adjustments to take on the audiences hearts. Editing could have been a tad better as 147 mins is a tad too long for this film, trimming 15-20 mins would have made some wonders to the overall product. Production design, costumes and makeup were decent. Music was very good too if not spectacular. On the acting front, it was a well balanced team effort among all actors, who played their characters wonderfully well.
Overall, A must watch movie for all Next Gen movies fans of not only Telugu cinema but all over India. Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi is a coming of age cinema with a difference, as the main characters are very believable, rare for Indian mainstream cinema. This film is another classic example of the essence of new Gen filmmaking and filmmakers slowly but taking over the future of Indian cinema. 7.4 stars for a beautiful presentation of friendship and camaraderie.
