Highly overrated. Is this never ending confused mess of a film a cult classic as claimed by a section of people? On one hand the hero Arjun rebukes someone for objectifying women and on the other hand treats a girl as his own property. Cringe-worthy double standards. All stars are for the actors who have put their whole and soul into the movie.

Kudos to director Sandeep for coming up with a bold and one-of-a- kind film in Telugu. He sticks to his script without any deviations. Sandeep is definitely a daring director, who has shown a new way forward with Arjun Reddy. This is Vijay Deverakonda's film all the way. He is sensational as Arjun Reddy. He completely transforms into the character and lives it. Undoubtedly, he is going to be the future poster-boy of Telugu cinema. He acts effortlessly, just like an experienced star. Rahul Ramakrishna as Vijay's friend is another surprise find, mouthing his dialogues in a natural way. Shalini makes an excellent debut, and shows no signs of being a newcomer. She is perfect for her role, which she carries with grace. Arjun Reddy, it sure is a sensation for Telugu cinema, and all the credit goes to director Sandeep for coming up with a subject like this. Although this is his debut film, one feels like he is an old hand. On his part, Vijay Deverakonda brings Arjun Reddy alive. A film not to be missed!!!

The love in Arjun Reddy is pure, unabashedly bold and hard-hitting. It touches the soul in ways it can't be explained. It gives the story a modern-day Devdas twist, while making the overall cinematic experience a journey to remember for a long time. This is the story of the lead character Arjun Reddy(Vijay DeveraKonda), and yet there isn't a story, a structure to be precise, to follow and anticipate what might happen next. It's the rise, fall and rise of Arjun, and his journey of love and suffering, is nothing short of poetic and heart wrenching. Sandeep and Vijay, as director and hero, make the film for what it is, and both have paved the way for a new chapter in Telugu film History. If it was Pellichoopulu and Kshanam last year, it's Arjun Reddy in 2017, and these films assure there is light at the end of the tunnel. As much as the film belongs to Sandeep, who is also its writer, it equally belongs to Vijay Devarakonda, who is the life of Arjun Reddy. Vijay breathes life into the character and it's impossible to imagine anyone else in his shoes. Be it his passion, love, and rage; he portrays these several layers of his character with unparalleled realism. Vijay's performance as a college-goer with serious anger issues or as the alcoholic surgeon will leave you in awe of his versatility in pulling off such diverse avatars with ease, as if it was child's play. Arjun Reddy most original, experimental and daring work to come out Telugu cinema in a long time.

Disclaimer: Not for telugu movie lovers who want 4 songs, 3 fights, couple of high budget sequences and 1 freaking mega family hero. This movie is an awesome mirror to how the present generation in India is. The story line, screenplay and the BGM are top notch. Movie starts off with the main character looking shoddy (like a modern day devadas) and his only intention is to flirt, f*** and finish off. it is only when you slowly slip into the movie that you realize that either you or one of your friends from college is of the same type. Anger management is the main theme of the movie and the director intelligently shows the difference in mindset of the character per and post falling in love. The supporting actors are like the friends of ours who are like shoulders to cry on or sit accordingly Got to give credits to the Director for running the movie for full 3 hours without the distracting love duets/mass songs ( saved 25 mins of his time to convey the story better) The subject line is raw and to the point with the plot revolving only around the hero. At no point one feels bored (unless someone doesn't like the plot all together). BGM by the music director is amazing. it goes slowly and smoothly with the mood of the movie Main let down would be the climax: which looked hurried and commercialized for the movie buffs

It has been a refreshing experience watching this movie. The romance, characterization is at its raw best. I am glad that the director and his team did not do anything to dial it down. The performances have been great. We all know the story, but it has not been done before in Telugu cinema. In some ways, this can be called modern Devdas with realistic dialogue. Without spoiling; the story is about a young MBBS student with anger management issues falling in love. Arjun Reddy's character is deeply flawed. I must appreciate the director and crew steering away from the Telugu movie way of showing the lead character in a perfect light. I am glad the character is flawed. There are several instances in this 186 minute movie that shows us the flawed side of our hero. It works out for the story telling. Also in this tale, we see characters yelling swear words when under stress or anger; which does not happen in other flicks. The physical romance couldn't be more appropriate. It's is present where necessary and only promotes story telling and emotions. Also, the story is also about a bunch of characters constantly caring and supporting Arjun Reddy despite his strong requirement for sole confinement. The sick kick friend is more than a side kick shows real spine in tense moments, also providing subtle comedy in the various situations. The movie does not commit to one message. The grandma says "a person who wants to suffer must be left alone and that person will soon get back on his feet"; But almost all characters related to the hero (Brother, friends) always keep visiting Arjun despite Arjun yelling them to go away. It was the supporting friends and family that bring back a almost lost soul back. When Arjun loses everything, left with no money and thrown on the road; it's the brother and father who spend their money to send Arjun to exotic countries to help him get over the girl. The movie doesn't seem 3 hour long, but definitely feels lengthy, often straining the eyes. Preethi's character is underdeveloped, but she did a decent job at that. The heroin side track was unnecessary and does not contribute much. Overall, this is a refreshing change in Tollywood and I can see a lot of directors experimenting by not following the Telugu formulaic trend in the upcoming years.

The movie is too raw. Also, there's nothing too great about the story. For the most part, it's nothing but smoking and drinking-plain. Movies have a profound influence on the society and I believe that the directors should feel responsible when they're portraying situations or activities that leave a deep impact on the young impressionable minds. If it wasn't for the ending I wouldn't have cared to give this a negative rating. Pain exists when things don't turn our way but it need not be shown in a vulgar fashion to say that the pain is intense. And the 3* I gave was for the ending. For the rest, its 0. I know that most of the readers who go through this may not agree with me, at all. But, this is what I feel.

Brilliant direction with organically written dialogues and an excellent cast. What stands out most in this film when compared to other Telugu films is the lack of hero worship, a story that lies close to reality and the portrayal of love in its pure form. Vijay uplifted the film to an entirely different level, giving it the kind of craze that it has. Radhan's music has done wonderfully with the frames and the scenes. Films like this would directly affect the Indian youth. The dialogues and the direction has made it clear that it is against the idea of objectifying women like most Telugu movies do with their item songs and unrealistic love stories which barely involve interaction on-screen. The protagonist has admirable qualities despite the fact that he has anger management issues and is, for a particular period, addicted to drinking. True love is timeless and tireless. No reason is strong enough for it to break, and this film showed us just that.

Movie is hyped and may have been a hit in the eyes but in reality its a useless movie. Self created garbage and self created pain and non sense. Every seen looks interesting but in reality it so gross to encourage the culture recklessness and stupidity. Any person with common sense won't rate this more than 5.
