Artists Performance:
Ram Charan: For the first time ever, Audience began talking positively about his acting skills more than his dancing capabilities. He is a complete revelation and gives the feeling he is ready to do anything for this movie. Especially, He stuns you in the last half-an-hour and undoubtedly its his best performance till date.
Kajal: After 'Chandamama', This is one film she makes lots of fans with just her beauty. Even her chemistry with Cherry is simply superb.
Prakash Raj & Jayasudha: Makers risked a bit by replacing Raj Kiran with Prakash Raj at an expensive of few crores, but it has worked in favor of the movie. What a performer he has been? He shows what the real meaning of getting into the skin of the character with his role. Jayasudha, on the other hand, is exceptional. Both these senior actors are an asset to the film.
Srikanth: After watching 'GAV', We get the feeling Srikanth's capabilities weren't used by filmmakers in the recent past. He plays the village spoilt brat role to perfection.
Kamalini Mukherjee, Kota Srinivas Rao, Rao Ramesh, Adarsh, Vennela Kishore and other have played their parts well.

Analysis:
'Govindudu Andarivaadele' is the kind of film we always expect from Krishna Vamsi. It's based on family values and human emotions that's been missing in Today's busy lifestyle. Though the story isn't afresh, its the screenplay which makes you glued to the screen. KV is a master at bringing the best out of his artistes and he deserves credit for exploring the unseen dimension in Ram Charan.
Yuvan Shankar Raja's music is in perfect sync with the theme of the film and adds a lot of value to the project. Picturization of songs has been too good, especially Neeli Rangu and Ra Ra Kumara. Sameer Reddy's cinematography is colorful and full of life. Art Direction is appreciable. Costumes by Neeraja Kona were apt. Dialogues are very well written. Editing could have been better. Production Values are grand.
Srikanth to Charan: 'Antha Gattiga Pattukunnaventra Pilli Pithra Nayala'. This one-liner itself is a proof of how well the Mega Hero underplayed giving least importance to his image.
The entire film is based on the meaningful line - 'Mana Panni Manname Chesukovali, Mana Illu Maname Subram Chesukovali, Mana Kuttumbanni Manname Kalupukovali'. Last half-an-hour is the heart of 'Govindudu Andarivaadele'. Kudos to Ram Charan and Krishna Vamsi for coming up with a film on Human Relations and Telugu Culture.
At Box Office, 'Govindudu Andarivaadele' has got every chance of setting new records and certainly going to be one of the biggest hits in Charan's career. Just wait and watch to know if Bandla Ganesh's Industry Hit talk comes true or not!
Verdict: A Heart-Touching Family Drama!
