while Sunil is good with his subtle comedy.....Satya is much bothered about the students in the college going astray by becoming addicts to bad habits.....Naga Chaitanya's performance is impressive;....The dialogues too are not impressive.....In short, Josh is average, but not the right script for star son Nag Chaitanya's launch..... ...
