Telusu Kada Twitter review: Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s romance drama receives mixed response from audience |
Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s much-awaited romantic drama Telusu Kada, directed by debutant Neeraja Kona, has finally hit theatres, and audience reactions have started pouring in on social media. Starring Srinidhi Shetty and Raashii Khanna as the female leads, the film has received a mixed response, with most praising Siddhu’s performance and the film’s visuals, while others pointed out its emotional shortcomings.
Mature take on love earns appreciation
Many viewers have lauded Telusu Kada for its modern and mature portrayal of love and relationships. On X (formerly Twitter), one user wrote, “Telusu Kada is a mature, intriguing, and deeply humane drama. The conversations hit hard and beautifully question societal conditioning. It has its flaws, but the central point and the lead’s performance keep one hooked. Good luck, anna Siddhu Jonnalagadda—you were brilliant!”
Visually stylish but misses emotional heartbeat
Some critics felt the film lacked depth despite its polished presentation. One tweet read, “A visually stylish drama that misses the emotional heartbeat. While the film radiates charm through Siddhu’s confident screen presence, the narrative feels hollow, weighed down by forced conflicts and shallow emotions. Neeraja Kona’s direction is visually classy but emotionally detached, while Gnana Shekar’s cinematography stands out as the true highlight.“
Mixed opinions on execution and emotional connect
Several viewers called Telusu Kada an “underwhelming romantic drama” that had potential but faltered in execution. One review read, “Though the plot sounds bold and unconventional, it’s executed in a way that feels over the top. Siddhu carries this one on his shoulders. His performance and timing are the saving grace. Raashii and Srinidhi support aptly.”
Others appreciated the film’s relatability and youth appeal. A reviewer tweeted, “Telusu Kada revolves around two girls who think breaking up is the solution when problems arise, and a boy who has complete clarity about love. The urban tone and dialogues work well for today’s generation.”
Praise for Siddhu and Neeraja Kona
One post applauded Neeraja Kona for handling a rare theme, saying, “Really impressed with how a woman director subtly explored the self-respect of men, a theme rarely handled with such nuance. Siddhu shines as Varun. Raashii, Srinidhi, and Harsha deliver strong performances too.”
