Legend is latest flick from the combination of Nandamuri Balakrishna and director Boyapati Srinu after the blockbuster Simha in 2010. Unlike Simha, Legend is clearly made to get the political mileage in the ensuing elections as Balakrishna will be either fielding as MLA or campaigning for TDP. As the film is intended for political mileage, script takes backseat and story is driven with punch dialogues. And Balakrishna is shown in more powerful way (of course, he is superb in the role of Jayadev in the khaddar attire).

Script runs on Simha formula - hero in dual role (younger Balakrishna and elder Balakrishna who fights for people), a granny who doesn't want her grandson be involved in vengeance killings, reserving drama in the second half. But in Legend, scenes in the second half have no relation to the story. Take for example: Hero's sister is pregnant and her husband wants her to have an abortion as she is expecting daughter. Enters Balakrishna and beats his brother-in-law for this. Which is laudable! But he doesn't stop there. He gives huge lecture on women and ends his speech that he will be always there for his sisters in the state. That is what we call, a “poll dialogue”. Then there is another scene where in he calls in all MLA's who are jumping from one party to other. One politician says that he earns Rs 100 crore and gives freebies to voters. Balakrishna gives examples about voter's mindset which is again obvious reference to current young political leaders. These don’t gel with the story at all.

First half of is a big bore until the interval sequence. In first half Brahmanandam's comedy is so very irritating. Second half of the movie has some meat and has some interesting sequences. The film completely hinges on Balakrishna's charisma and dialogues. The film is watch able only for Balakrishna's performance and his absolute powerful dialogue delivery.

Talented Radhika Apte has not much role but she has done justice. But a Cambridge educated young girl dreaming to become wife much older personality who indulges in violent acts seems a bit unconvincing.

 

 Brahmanandam's comedy is outdated. 

 

But his story and screenplay is mediocre. He has this habit of presenting every scene like a hero-introduction scene, not caring about the story flow. This film has such scenes aplenty.
