Performances:

Nitin is energetic and confident in this movie. This is easily the best of his performances. He has done a great job in emotional and comedic scenes as well. Nitya Menen steals the hearts yet again with a striking portrayal of Shravani. Isha Talwar is a pretty face. Ali had some of the best comedy scenes in the movie and he excelled. Tagubothu Ramesh tickles you with few funny one-liners. All others did well in their assigned roles.
                                                                                                          
Technicalities:

Music by Anup is good. Tu Hi Rey and Neeve Neeve songs are superb. Remix song from Toliprema is well shot. Andrew's cinematography is an asset. Background score is very good. Dialogues are hilarious. Editing is fine. Could have been crisper in the second hour. Production values are rich. Director did a fine job in handling the film well without losing the scope for entertainment. Although the story gets into some heavier moments in the second half, director made sure to not to miss the entertainment. On a whole it is a good job from the debutante.

Analysis:

Gunde Jaari Gallantayyinde plot line is pretty simple like every other romantic comedy. The conflict in the story is strong enough to drive it for two hours. Writers did a wonderful job in maintaining the flow of the movie. There are hardly any dull moments in the film. Despite few hiccups in the second half the film clicks due to good entertainment and sparkling chemistry between the lead pair.

After Ala Modalaindi and Ishq, this is another good romantic comedy that will be supported by the young audience. Gunde Jaari Gallantayyinde has success written all over it. The best part of the film comes before interval. Even the movie ended on a fine note. One will have enough fun watching the film and there is high chances for repeat audiences.

However the director should have avoided including crude fun. Comedy scenes on gays are of cheap taste. Avoiding such scenes doesn't harm the entertainment value in anyway. Barring that GJG is pure fun and is a must watch.

Verdict: Entertainment at its very best!
