SVSC is a such a great movie with top level starcast. First Person to appreciate is Dil Raju for selecting the director Srikanth Addala and getting the two top stars together for this movie. Srikanth Addala is a talented director whose debut Kotha Bangaru Lokam was a spelling binding Hit. You cant imagine how powerful is the presence of Mahesh Babu, his arresting perforance took this movie to great heights. SVSC Blu-ray from Bhavani is a commendable effort as its quality is awesome. SVSC Blu-ray is the right addition to your home library, this is a must buy for any Blu-ray collector!!
