Plot - Surya is an Indian Army Officer, whose wish to protect our India from the border. He has a severe problem of controlling his anger for small issues. His reaction will be worse for that. This comes as an obstacle in his army life. So, the Colonel wants him to be certified by India's best psychologist Dr. Rama Krishna Raj. He wants him to be completely alright. How does he control his anger and what happens next forms the crux of the story. 

           'Naa Peru Surya, Naa Illu India' is an action thriller directed by V Vamsi, who is a famous dialogue writer in Tollywood industry. 'Stylish Star' Allu Arjun plays the male lead. The film has an Indian Army backdrop, mixed with commercial elements and patriotism content. The film gets released in Tamil(Dubbed) as 'En Peyar Surya, En Veedu India' yesterday along with the original version release. 

Performance of the Star Cast - Allu Arjun delivers a splendid performance and he pulls off the entire content with his terrific style. Whether it is action or dance, he is just stealing the show like a boss. He emotes very well and his energy level is completely stunning. Anu Emmanuel plays her part decently. Arjun Sarja plays a supporting role and he gives his usual best performance. Sarath Kumar's characterisation could have been more stronger. Still, he gives his best in his portions. Thakur Anoop Singh and Harish Uttaman gives good justification to their negative roles. Vennela Kishore, Nadhiya and all other actors in the film have done their part well. 

Technical Works - Rajeev Ravi and Sushil Chowdary handles the cinematography work. Their visuals are really superb and cool. Kotagiri Venkateshwara Rao's editing work makes a steady flow for the film. Vishal-Shekar's songs are not bad (saying only about the tamil version). His background score helps to elevate the high-voltage action sequences. The tamil dubbing is good, which conveys the emotions in a very good manner. 

Director's Involvement with the Script - Director V Vamsi is known for his dialogues in many Super Hit Telugu films. He marks his directorial debut through this film. He mixes the commercial elements and patriotism content in a right proportion, but it goes slightly wrong in some scenes. His dialogues about patriotism shows his great love for our India. The message he tries to convey has worked very well. He conveys the family sentiments decently. But, he should have concentrated to correct the lagging issues in the film. 

Screenplay Execution - The film opens with the introduction of Allu Arjun, with some action elements. After that time, the film takes few minutes to enter into the plot. From that point, the film holds the audience's interest towards the audience with both commercial elements and patriotism content. The interval block is a terrific one. In the second half, the film moves in a good flow. The interest of the audience goes to a peak level at a point. After a song, the interest of the audience slightly slows down. The climax looks unbelievable, still the message creates a good impact. 


Main Negatives of the Film - The song placements of 'Adi Kalukae Nenjukula Than' ('Lover Also Fighter Also' song)and 'Adi Aathe Ezhuthu Manasa' ('Iraga Iraga' song) looks unnecessary and it disturbs the flow. The screenplay pace of the second half slows down slightly. In some places, the commercial elements looks like force fitting. The duration of the film is also a big problem. Even though the climax has a good message, some of them may not get convinced with the climax. Mistakes apart, Allu Arjun makes a stronger impact through his performance. So, this makes us to come happily out of the theatre. 

Verdict 
           'En Peyar Surya En Veedu India' is a very good action thriller, in which the mixing up of commercial elements and patriotism content works well in many scenes. In some parts, the audience may not get satisfied fully. But, you won't get disappointed with the film. So, this film deserves a 'worth-watchable once' category for Allu Arjun's terrific screen presence and for some patriotic moments. 

Cut Short Rating - 8/10
