What's the reason for rivalary between both groups? What is the past life of Jai? Does it connected to Richa or not? What is the end of this triangle love story? are to be seen on silver screen.

Star Performances:

Prabhas: We can simply say that, Mirchi is Prabhas's one man show. His mannerism and high energetic levels are major plus to the film.

Richa Gangopadhyay: Richa played one of the lead role in the film. She is gorgeous in the film. She is not only having a guest role, She played in the entire first half without Anushka!

Anushka: Vennela (Anushka) as Jai's Sister-in-Law. She is cute and perfectly suited for Prabhas. Especially, She is hot in Darlingey song.

Others: As usually, Senior actors Subbaraju and Satya Raj acted their level the best.

Direction, Music & Technical Aspects:

Director debuted writer Koratala Siva has made decent yet not out-of-the-box script for star hero like Prabhas. Not just direction, he also took care of Story, Screenplay, Dialogues but succeed at filming countable scenes which audience get connect and remember after leaving theater.

Siva managed screenplay but doesn't sound good with dialogues and even editing part of the film can be better, Routine story line followed by unapealing climax brought movie from super hit to one time watch. Overall, his work is not brilliant and not totally ignorant.

Along with already popular music album, Devi Sri Prasad background score was extraordinary and it gave soul to handful of scenes... made audience immerse with ongoing film. Unlike rest of the movie, Songs were canned beautifully... DSP's music flows smoothly keeping your foot tap. Madhi cinematography was disappointing, it completely lacked projecting star hero like prabhas on a large scale. Thought of bringing the native look to scenese like faction backdrop, chases, fights backfired by making the visuals appear cheap and second standard...

which you would never expect in a star hero film. Editor Kotagiri venkateswara rao could have used his scissiors better in trimming the dragging actions sequences and helped improvizing the slow narration parts of the film. Friends duo of Prabhas who also happened to produce this flick spent good money in doing so... All songs and some scenes looked rich and alright but many scenes gives an impression that product cost is saved.

Positive Aspects:

Prabhas's cool acting and Energetic levels at peaks.
Anushka and Richa Gangopadhyaya, Both are gorgeous in the film.
Brahmanandam's comedy worked fine.
Devi Sri Prasad's music rocked the theaters. BGM's are ok. Especially, Darlingey song attracts mass audience.
Fights came out well.
Dialogues are Major asset to Mirchi.

Mirchi Dialogues:

Ila Ayithe Ee Ammayiki Enti..A ammayikee Annayyavi Avvavu
Baditho Vyaapaarama? Saara Kottu Pettuko
Foreign lo MS chesanu ante..10th kuda Pass kaleda!
Na Vuriki Ravalante sketch vesukuni ravali, Nenu shirt vesukuni Vacha

Negative Aspects:

Week story. As a debutante, Koratala Shiva succeed in directing Mirchi. But, he had to improve his narrative skills.
Slow pace. Especially, In the second half. Audience will definitely get bored.
Devi Sri Prasad's song "Katuka Kallanu" remembers us Sarocharu film "Katuka Kallu" song lyrics.
Poor interval bang. Dhothi fight scene and some other scenes remembers us Bhadra, Athidhi, Eshwar and Krishna movies, As expected.

Verdict: t is a stylish and enjoyable movie for Prabhas fans...!!!
