Gaganam (Telugu Blu-ray)

Nagarjuna made several experiments in his 25 year film career. He gave opportunities to new directors and made block busters like Shiva, acted in devotional films and gave blockbusters like Annamayya & Sri Ramadasu. His new experiment, Gaganam, does not have songs and fights.

The story of Gaganam is pretty new to Telugu cinema and it is a classic entertainer for urbane audiences. Despite a serious movie, the entertainment is not missed. Gaganam has set a new trend by running successfully in theaters.

Radha Mohan dealt with soft stories like Akasamantha earlier and now he came up with this thriller. But still he has shown his caliber. He is successful because he dealt with the subject efficiently without any diversions. Director Radhamohan took enough care in second half by making it thrilling and captivating. The director proved successful in bringing in tension with his screenplay in the second half.

Gaganam is a decent film which should be watched with an open mind. Producers Dil Raju and Niranjan (Matinee Entertainment) should be commended for putting their money on a different, but still a commercial movie.
