It is so daring, it is so ambitious, it is so thrilling and weird and pointed and powerful. I never knew where it was going.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Godavari is the movie directed by the famous Telugu movie director Shekhar Kammula.The movie has been mostly shot on a boat that travels between Rajahmundry and badrachalam
on Godavari river and scenes are natural,the whole scenes are mesmerizing.you can have laugh whenever the animated dog speaks .
Godavari has been shot not in dandakranyam.but on the river.characters mostly resemble of those in everyday life .
The plot is love between an egoist lady and smooth ,humanitarian .The woman presents herself an individual and disrespectful when one condemns her.is this ego ?yet the character is beautiful ly carved.the protagonist is ever helpful and always indulging wants to marry his relative but refused by the father of the girl due to his volatile behaviour.
Though sumanth character is a smooth ,helping individual,he played superbly as it suited him.
The second half of movie is dragged and hurried .if some more picturesque scenes are added,it would have been a great pick

This is a kind of film, that reflects the collective thoughts of the current generation.You can't even find a single irrelevant scene in this movie, and each and every character in this film was sketched neatly for some reason. Please watch this with out fail. Particularly the way director portrayed Godavari and the people belonging to this region was natural.With in just 15 minutes after the title cards, you can feel the importance of all the characters. Particularly Tanikella bharani(Boat Owner), pullatla pullamma and the balloon seller (kid) characters were very entertaining and helped in maintaining the flow of the film very well. excellent performance from sumanth, kamalini and sekhar kammula till date.

By far the best Telugu movie I have seen. I am a Tamilian but I like Telugu movies. Godhavari really touched my heart, every moment of it was just pure emotions. The cute dog especially, hats-off to the creativity of the director and the graphics in-charge. Sumanth and Kamalini were great, the way Kamalini expresses her emotions in every scene is remarkable. Being a Bengali, acting and moving lips to a Telugu script must have been difficult, but she has done it with ease. The music was enchanting though I understood very little - the lyrics. The editing was also great, flawless. Hats off to the whole team of Godhavari.Suresh N

The other day when I was telling my mother how refreshing this movie was, she asked me why I thought it was so special. I said, "Imagine being out of hometown for a couple of weeks and living on junk food. When you return home and have simple homemade rice and curry, how do you feel?" In addition to capturing life around the lifeline of Andhra, Godavari, in a laudable manner, the movie makers put together a good cast. Radhakrishna embellished the movie by wrapping Veturi's lyrics in melodious tunes. Godavari might not be remembered by Thelugus four or five decades down the line like how Lavakusa is, but it can make any given evening pleasant and memorable. Anyone who loved movies that were made by Baapu or Viswanath (or one of their ilk) will add Sekhar Kammula to their list after watching this movie.Movies such as this salvage Thelugu cinema and rekindle hopes, in people like me, that there still are people who can make neat, simple, and straightforward Thelugu movies. Kudos to Kammula and his team!
