Satyam Movie Review          The movie was much hyped and much awaited movie for all the fans of Vishal. But the script in his film gets lost in the middle and then emerges out from nowhere. Although the movie is scripted to highlight a strict cop, the narration and the screenplay are not perfectly up to the mark. Though the fans of Vishal and Nayan get disappointed by the story, the on -screen chemistry between the lead brings some soothing breeze to the audience. The story begins in the first frame showing Satyam (Vishal) as a strict law abiding police officer who goes according to the law full procedures. He is against non-violence and believes that every culprit who evades law must be punished in accordance with the Justice and the Indian penal code. He is also against the Encounter police which the present day cops employee to eradicate the anti social elements. In the meantime the political scenario in the state changes and a well known politician with an evil background is made the Chief Minister (Kota Srinivas Rao) of the state. He in order to reduce his enemies hires a killer on contract and hands over them all then name who have to be eradicated from his path. Incidentally, the Chief Minister discovers that his job is being made easy, as an unknown killer is on a killing spree in eradicating the CM’s enemies. Then our powerful and strict police office Mr. Satyam is given the job to nab the killer. He is none other than Prathap which is a character played by the well known artists Upendra. Prathap is a former police officer who gets betrayed in his profession by some men who hold high post in the society. Then the real fight begins between Satyam and Prathap. And the lawful police officer is keen to eliminate Prathap from the world in order to save some people. In the meanwhile, Divya (Nayantara) emerges on the screen as a crime reporter. Then the real suspense and thrill begin in the minds of the audience. What is the mission of Prathap? Who is Nayantara? And what happens in the end is the conclusion of the story. Vishal looks superb with his six pack abs. He is going to get molested by young girls if he goes into the public. His well toned body adds more glitter to his tall, dark handsome resemblance. His character as a cop well suits him. But it can be concluded that for a dull subject like this, Vishal has wasted his voluble time. Upendra has acted according to his character his serious role suits to his body language and well apt expressions according to the dialogues make him a versatile actor. Nayantara is just limited to a brief role of a crime reporter. Her costumes in songs and her dresses in the scenes are really seductive. She is like a glam doll to attract the mass audience.

Ennanbe (Sadhana Sargam, Beney Deyal) Seemingly an extension of the 'Chellamae' song, this number has catchy lyrics that dwells a lot on romance. Harris comes up with new sounds that stick to heart immediately. Sadhana Sargam is the perfect choice to render the song as she has given her heart and soul to the number, which is appealing. Paal Pappali (Naveen, Mahathi) A kuthu number from Harris is a rarity. However, having proved his mastery in coming up with melody and western acoustics, Harris has got an opportunity to show his skills at a pacy kuthu number. Hats off to him as he manages to render a song that is mind-boggling. Rahul Nambiyar is a bundle of energy and his style is with a lot of enthusiasm. Aaradi Kaatre (Hariharan) Harris has proved once again with ease his mettle in coming up with songs on catchy instrumentation using only drums and guitars.
