Artistes Performance:
Raviteja: He has gone for a complete makeover. The two contrast looks have suited him to perfection and he looks much younger than his age in this mass entertainer. As usual, His dialogue delivery, energy and ease of acting have been exceptional. He even tried his hand at some complex dance moves and managed to come out with flying colors. The costumes wore by him were the best in his career. 'Power' is Raviteja's show all the way!
Hansika: Playing a bubbly character is tailor made for this Milky Beauty. She does a good job in teasing scenes and looks glamorous in dance numbers.
Regina: As Bengali Girl, She is perfect! Her biggest strength is expressive face and she uses it to good effect in this movie.
Rest of the cast including Brahmanandam, Prakash Raj, Kota Srinivas Rao, Mukesh Rushi, Saptagiri, Ajay, Subbaraju, Brahmaji, Posani, Satyam Rajesh and others did justice to their roles.

Analysis:
Director Bobby who proved his mettle as a writer with 'Balupu' and 'Alludu Seenu' enters the most crucial phase of his career with 'Power'. Right from giving Raviteja his career best look to picturization of songs & few scenes, He showed a lot of promise and has got the calibre to make it big in Film Industry.
The main drawback in 'Power' is its writing. We have seen many films including that of Ravi's past entertainers with similar narration to remind us that its just an old wine in new bottle.
Songs composed by SS Thaman has already been topping the charts. Background Score is neither bad not too good. Cinematography by Jayanan Vincent is top notch. Dialogues by Kona Venkat are good. Editing is apt. Production Values are grand and Raviteja couldn't have asked for better.
While the First Half of the film is entertaining with ample comedy episodes and impressive interval twist, Second Half is high on emotional scenes and action part.
At Box Office, 'Power' might record best openings for Raviteja because of its massive release (840-plus screens, highest for Ravi) but mayn't sustain from 2nd week if 'Aagadu' clicks well with the movie buffs.
