Title: khaleja
Tagline: there is god in every heart
Script: there is some novelty in the script. morality is also there but it depends on how people understand. it has a message that is hidden in the movie.
Execution: when a strong script is present, only the thrills and suspense would make it a success. but here the execution is utterly disappointing. no sense of interest towards story except the last 10 minutes.
Direction: there are no controlled performances. director had made a big mistake. prakash raj shouts a lot in the climax which is horrible. screenplay is ok.
Casting: mahesh babu is seamless and performed really well. but he was overacting at times. Anushka gave a good support to mahesh on screen, their chemistry is good. shafi and rao ramesh play key roles in the movie. prakash raj is ok. subbaraju is also ok. but they have limited roles. rest are ok
Technical values: music is good. sada siva rocks and taxi is good. background score is good. during action sequences it pumps up. editing is tacky. the main story comes out at the last 15 minutes. cinematography is also good. rajashthan deserts are been picturized well. camera work is good in action scenes. rest depts are good.
Production values: nearly 40 crores invested on the movie is waste. good story but lack of proper execution will make the producers to suffer a bit. though mahesh can be the saving grace.
Entertainment value: full fledged comedy with rare touches of sentiment and action. entertaining . the movie for the family.
Final analysis: khaleja begins solid. then movie loses track. perfect storyline and if execution would have been better , khaleja would have made box office records. director"s fault makes it to struggle. Anyhow khaleja gets 3/5
