STORY: White(Ram Pothineni) enters into Ongole mirchi yard in his childhood with an aim of becoming it's chairman. With time he becomes successful and owns few shops in the yard. Prakash Raj is the head of this mirchi yard and has a good name for his caring nature.In the same time MLA(Aahuthi Prasad) tries to shift this mirchi yard to make some money. Will the MLA succeed in his plan?What happens between White and Chairman? This makes the rest of the story.

ARTISTS PERFORMANCES: Ram performs this mass role with ease and lot of energy. This role offers nothing new from him.His dance moves too were energetic.Krithi Kharbandha looks gorgeous as ever.She acted well as a bubbly girl.Praksh Raj action was superb. Especially his expressions in the chairman election scene needs a special mention. There are too many senseless nude scenes of Prakash Raj makes you feel uncomfortable. Only director should know why those were picturised.Raghu babu's comedy timing is good.Prabhu is asusual.

TECHNICAL DEPARTMENTS: Bhaskar choosed a mass script this time which was new for him. He fails to deliver any impact.First of all the script chosen by him was routine and outdated one.Strangely this film has some scenes which resembles tamil nativity and makes you irritate.Even some of the scenes clearly shows the that Bhaskar doesn't know the mass pulse and their taste.Some are overly portrayed.G.V.Praksh's music is second class.None of the songs makes you hear them for the second time.Manisharma's BGM is okay.Dialogues written by Surrender Reddy are simple.'But the dialogues written for the people in 'Thikkavaaripaalem' needs a special mention.Cinematography is good.Editing could have been better.

First half of the film is okay with some entertaining scenes.Second half of the film is dragging and fails to grab the attention of the audience.Climax could have been better.

PROS: Prakash Raj action,Thikkavaaripaalem comedy scenes

CONS: Weak script,Slow pace,music,touch of tamil nativity

BOTTOM LINE: Idhi Ongole Githa kaadhu On'Gola'githa..

RATING: 2/5
