Itlu Maredumilli Prajaneekam: Review
Critics identified flaws with the writing of Itlu Maredumalli Prajaaneekam, stating that the story lacked novel aspects and did not have elements which could keep the audience engaged. Though the film was made with honesty, few aspects of the premise and performances held the film together. While the first half of the film was decent, issues with the second half made Itlu Maredumalli Prajaaneekam a disappointing watch. On the other hand, the social message shared from the drama and narration was appreciated.
