Performances
Though it is his second film, Vijay Devarakonda has come up with a believable performance. He has looked so comfortable playing this young and confused role. He has pulled it off quite well and his chemistry with Ritu Varma is the highlight of the movie.
Ritu is also very good in her role and fill the bill of the character she portrayed. She is charming in her innocence and is adequate. Others have done justice to their role.
Technical
Vivek Sagar's music is soothing and background score is a perfect foil for the story.
Dialogues are natural and witty. Editing is good, but a bit of trimming in the second half will help the movie. Nagesh Banel's cinematography is only adds to the grandeur of the film. Production values are very good. Director Tarun Bhaskar deserves an all-round applause for his unique narrative style.

Minus Points
Editing, Lack of commercial elements
Analysis: The chemistry between Vijay Devarakonda and Ritu is subtle and sweet and is a major plus point of the movie Director Tarun Bhaskar made sure that there is enough fun and humor in the movie though he comes up with a predictable plot.
The film has some meaningful emotions and the way the love story progresses has also been showcased nicely.
It does have its dull moments, especially in the second half as it becomes slow-paced, but picks up towards the end.
While good comedy, witty dialogues, decent production values and brilliant picturisation and amazing background score are some of the highlights of the movie, little dragging in the second half and lack of commercial elements are some of the dull moments.
Comedy scenes and Tarun Bhakar's narrative style that keeps the audience seated till the end.

Bottomline
With good performances by the lead pair and brilliant narration by the director, Pelli Choopulu is a feel-good entertainer and will not disappoint you this weekend.
