ETimes review praises visual grandeur
The ETimes review reads, “The film’s intent to portray Krishna’s ethos of love and devotion comes through, further elevated by its performances. Siddharth Gupta takes time to feel fully convincing in the role, but once he settles into the part, he delivers a strong performance. Sushmita Bhat as Radha, Sanskruti Jayana as Bhama, and Nivaashiyini Krishnan as Rukmini deliver sincere turns overall. Sanskruti Jayana deserves special mention for portraying Bhama’s jealousy and heartache, and shines in the role of slaying Narkasur. The story is familiar and spectacle-led, but the grand visuals, music and sincere performances make it worth a theatrical watch.”With over Rs 10 crore in India gross collections in just six days, Krishnavataram Part 1: The Heart has made a promising start at the box office.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
