Radhika Rajamani feels that Telugu film Dammu is cliched and might only work for die-hard NTR Jr fans.Director Boyapati Seenu's new film
Dammu has an outdated and clichéd storyline, regressive content, and mindless and excessive violence.
NTR has lived up to his hero image by shouldering the burden of this primarily hero-centric film.
Films to do with warring families are old hat. Two villages whose landlords (played by Nasser and Suman) are at loggerheads means a bleak life for the villagers. Give film name Nasser practically wipes out everyone and orders no male child is to be born in the village.
Suman's character doesn't have a male heir; his fourth child after three daughters was a stilborn boy. Yet he promises the villagers that his child will come to their rescue.
Ramchandra (NTR Jr)'s character, an orphan, saves a businessman who gives him Rs 10 lakh. He is in love with Satya (Trisha). Kota Srinivasa Rao wants to adopt Ramachandra and use him to wipe out Nasser and his evil forces.
The battle begins. In the village, Ramachandra has to also contend with Nilaveni (Karthika Nair)
