Boyapati Srinu is the director of the 2014 Telugu-language action drama Legend, which is produced by Varahi Chalana Chitram and 14 Reels Entertainment. In the movie, Nandamuri Balakrishna plays a dual role with Radhika Apte, Sonal Chauhan, and Jagapathi Babu. Devi Sri Prasad wrote the background score and soundtrack.
Legend debuted on March 28, 2014, all over the world. It was well-received by reviewers and went on to become the fourth-highest grossing movie at the box office in 2014.
A harsh faction leader from Kurnool named Jeetendra travels to Vizag in order to finalise his marriage arrangement with the daughter of the local MLA. When confronted, Jeetendra pulls a gun on the onlookers and causes an accident on his way back. They are then taken before a family and an arbiter who attempts to resolve the conflict by requesting that Jeetendra offer an apology to the parties he has wronged. Rather, Jeetendra gets slapped and taken into custody when he objects and makes a commotion. He gets really irritated by this. The arbitrator’s wife and son are abducted by Jeetendra’s father in an attempt to free him.
Jeetendra discovers his father dead not long after being freed. He finds out via his goons that this was the young son of the arbitrator taking revenge for the boy’s mother’s death. The mother of the arbitrator is deeply affected by this tragedy and asks for an end to the violence. The arbitrator replies, however, that this will not end and that his son—the legend—is the answer to this issue. In parallel, Jeetendra settles in Vizag to seize control of the region and his animosity becomes irreversible. Additionally, he murders the arbitrator, which leads the arbitrator’s grandmother to move her grandson to a distant place.
The arbitrator’s youngest son, Krishna, resides in Dubai, where he destroys lawbreakers and will not stand for injustice. In defiance of his grandmother’s wishes, he travels to India with his fiancée Sneha. While travelling, he witnesses Jeetendra’s older son Chotu killing Simhachalam, a former MLA, in order to resolve an ongoing legal matter and influence his father to become Chief Minister. Sneha’s father, a local DC, witnesses Krishna beating him severely. Later on, at his meeting with Krishna, DC warns him about Jeetendra’s harshness. Chotu, who is admitted to the hospital, passes away inexplicably the next day. In this situation, Jeetendra becomes enraged and begins a fierce pursuit for retribution.

'Legend' Review: Balayya Does Not Disappoint
Movie: Legend Rating: 3/5 Banner: 14 Reels Entertainment, Vaarahi Chalana Chitram Cast: Bala krishna, Jagapathi Babu, Radhika Apte, Sonal Chauhan, Bramhanandham and Others Dialogues: M ratnam Music: Devi Sri Prasad Editor: K Venkateswar Rao Cinematographer: C Ram Prasad Producers: Anil Sunkara, Ram Achanta, Gopi Achanta Story, Screenplay and Direction: Boyapati Sreenu Release Date: 28th March, 2014
Simha in the combination of Boyapati Srinu and Balakrishna in 2010 was a stupendous hit. The film ended the string of flops that Balayya was encountering prior to that. So when a film was announced in the same combination, there were lot of expectations. Will Balayya live up to the expectations? Will he deliver? Will Boyapati’s magic work once again remains to be seen.
Story: Jeetendra (Jagapati Babu) is insulted in a village. So, he develops hatred on the village and the village people and its head played by Suman. Suman’s son Krishna (Balakrishna) is sent off to study by his grandmother to stop him from taking revenge. Years later, Krishna returns with the girl he loves (Sonal). After his return, he ends up having a fight with Jeetendra’s son. From then on, a tug-of-war begins between Jeetendra and Krishna. Meanwhile, there is a surprise twist in the tale.
Artistes’ Performance: Balakrishna is a pro when it comes to showing intensity. Boyapati Srinu has created a character that is in keeping with Balayya’s image. The character makes full justice to his style of dialogue delivery and powerful expressions. In the second half, he puts in a performance that is bound to be liked by his fans. However, he fails to hide his age through the young character. But his dressing and characterisation perfectly suit the Legend character.
We cannot point a finger at Jagapari Babu’s get-up. He did not look so good even when he played the hero. His dressing and his acting get full marks. But due to some glitches in characterisation, his character falters at places.
Coming to the heroines, there is nothing much they get to do. Radhika Apte bores to the core. Even Balakrishna irritates by calling his sister-in-law ‘amma’.
It is probably one of those films where you will actually want Brahmanandam’s character to end soon.
Technical Excellence: Devi Sri Prasad’s music is so-so. You will not remember any songs once you walk out of the film. But the title song has been well-picturised. However, Devi does leave his mark while giving background score.
Coming to editing, there are some loopholes. Since it is a heavy subject line, the editor should have been slick. Cinematography is good though.
Boyapati Srinu repeats himself and this film is technically not very different from his earlier films. All his films show the hero in two shades and so is the case with Legend. Balayya’s character is a mix of heroism and comedy. Boyapati who had shown Balayya in a powerful role in Simha, successfully repeats the earlier characterisation.
Highlights:
- Balayya’s performance as Legend
- Jagapati Babu’s get-up as villain
- Some scenes in the second half
- Brahmanandam’s comedy track
- Free climax sequence
Analysis: The biggest draw for Legend is his performance. There is nothing much to the story and the same can be said about screenplay. But Boyapati Srinu manages to make a character that is in keeping with Balayya’s image.
Balayya gives his 100 per cent to a character that suits his age and boosts the performance. Though there are many loopholes in the story and despite it being weak in places, Balayya manages to pull it through.
The film’s highlight is surely Jagapathi Babu. In fact, if the writer would have pitted Balayya and Jagapathi Babu, then Legend would have turned out differently. But in keeping with the taste of the Telugu audience, the hero’s character is rather strong and the villain’s character is rather weak. Due to this, the film does not excite you. The hero pulls it along on his own strength. Had the director picturised a powerful showdown between Jagapathi Babu and Balayya, it would have helped the film a lot.
Boyapati mixes up various characters of Balayya along with his two shades formula and whips up Legend. But Balayya’s trademark dialogue delivery and dialogues that interest his fans induce some excitement into the film. However, the film will not be well-received by others barring his fans and mass audience.
Since it released at a time when there are no big films, it remains to be seen how far Legend will cash in on the situation. But if one were to compare this with Balayya’s Narasimha Naidu and Samarasimha Reddy, then the fans are likely to be disappointed. And if one were to compare it with Balayya’s recent flops, then the film is ‘much better’.
Bottomline: Great Legend for his fans... Small celebrity for others!

Legend Rating: 3.11/5 From All the reviews on the web Showing 9 Reviews
Ratings: 3/5 Review By: Karthik Pasupulate Site:Times Of India (TOI)
A Balakrishna movie is an acquired taste. You need to have grown up on a diet of Telugu cinema to appreciate its nuances. Like why there are at least two heroines (in this movie he is playing a bit of a dual role), one inuendo laden number that goes lasku tapa, lasku tapa…, the high decibel dialogues, the flying suvs, and “David Blaineesque” stunts. Yet the audiences go berserk with chants of Balayya Balayya at the most juvenile of his antics. Simply put its Simha remade with bad music. How much you will enjoy it will be directly proportional to your love for Balayya.

First half of the film is okay. Interval bang is good. Second half has powerful moments and emotionally charged scenes. Plus points of the film are Bala Krishnas ferocious performance (as Jai Dev) and powerful dialogues written by M Ratnam. On the flip side, there is a lot of bloodshed. On a whole, Legend is a feast for fans and will be liked by masses.

Boyapati pens a film that has something for everyone, except those youngsters who can’t connect with a generation of heroes that revel in everything larger-than-life and over-the-top. There is second-rate Brahmi comedy, there are a couple of elements that mirror the debauchery pervasive in politics today, there is that chest-beating for people. A film that falters in first half and picks up from the interval bang. All in all, it is Balayya’s one-man mighty show. Barring a few lacunae, it should be a hit with the mass audience.

The talking point of the film is the effortless performance by Nandamuri, which is a combination of romantic action and a mass entertainer. The storyline has been used a lot earlier but the director has managed to keep the audience hooked till the end. The film is fast-paced with introduction scenes of the character played by Balakrishna making his entry in a chase sequence in Dubai. The first half of the film is full of punch dialogues.

Boyapati Srinu packed it with right mix of commercial ingredients and showcasing Bala Krishna in a powerful role. Second half is the major asset of the movie and the sharp dialogues in the second hour are an additional asset. While the first half is okay with few interesting moments, the interval bang in too good leaving scope to second half. Legend- Bala Krishnas Legendary performance delights fans!!!
Visit Site for more Ratings: 3.5/5 Review By: Gulte Site:Gulte
Legend is a complete commercial package with all the ingredients neatly packed in. The film starts off with a bang with Jagapathi Babu setting right expectations on the film. The graph dips a bit after Balakrishna’s character was introduced. Director tried to add comedy flavor to the film by giving maximum footage to Brahmanandam for a while. There is good sentimental touch to the film which will appeal to classes and families. Excessive violence is the weak point of this film and it may restrict the reach.

The second half of the film is a big plus point, with emotionally charged scenes and powerful action episodes. The fight sequence near train track is excellent.Interval episode and twist have good impact value.Legend has some explosive moments in the second half and powerful punch dialogues from Balakrishna. The film is a solid commercial entertainer that can do great business at the Box Office
Visit Site for more Ratings: 2.5/5 Review By: Common Man Site:AP Herald
First half of the film is okay, with solid interval bang but things fall apart in the second half due to thin point and dragged narration. A better script, more believable characters, some real trimming, pulsing narration and a modern style could have done wonders for Legend. But in the current form it succeeds in reminding about the earlier movies. Overall, the intentions were honest, the effort that has gone into the making of the film very evident in every frame. It certainly has its moments, but not enough to deserve the price of your ticket unless of course, you’re a Balakrishna fan. If you are, don’t think twice, go watch it.

boyapati srinu
Devi sri prasad, local language, sonal chauhan, visakhapatnam, vishakapatnam.
Krishna (Balakrishna) a happy go lucky guy falls in love with Sonal Chauhan. With the help of Manikyam (Bhramanandam) Krishna comes to Vizag to attend a marriage. But things fall apart as "Naku Oka Bad Habbit undi life lo konni vinnakudadu chudakudadu anni anukuntanu vi na kantiki kanipinchina chaviki vinpinchina Temper lechudhi" that's how he goes against Jitendra (Jagapathi Babu)'s brother. But seeing his brother's condition, with the help of local police. Jitendra tries to kill everyone in Krishna's family by kidnapping Sonal Chauhan. Everyone in the family survives the attack due to Jayadev. Who is Jayadev? What's his connection with Krishna and family forms the rest of the storyline.
Although the film is loaded with talent in the acting department, it doesn't exactly come as a saving grace. While some excel the other's disappoint. Balakrishna clearly outshines the rest with his high spirited performance and spontaneity. The very talented Jagapathy Babu is good with histrionics and mannerisms but his characterization fails to make his presence felt. His timing with Balakrishna wasn't good enough either. Though there is no point in comparing the two, it is Balakrishna who scores more, especially with the maximum presence on screen. Jagapathy Babu Looks a bit wan but he impresses with his dialogue delivery.
Legend even includes two beautiful actresses. Radhika Apte (Rakta Charitra fame) did a typical role and she did it with sang-froid. Sonal Chauhan (Rainbow Fame) did well within the limitations of her character. She is redhot in the trendy look. Most of the actors have limited roles to play. Bhramanandam fails to tickle the funny bones with his Thrills. Suhasini Maniratnam, Kalyani Suriyakiran, Bhramji, Chalapathy Rao and Ahuthi Prasad are just there to make their presence felt.
Boyapati Srinu's Legend had potential to be a mass entertainer film but it fails to capture the essence and falls flat due to a standard script. The screenplay lacks freshness, is loosely written and amateurishly handled that it goes from good to average to bad and ends up being a long yawn that evokes nothing but boredom. However, the film does manage to work in parts with some emotional sequences well enacted and some comical scenes that turn your grin to a laughter. The first half of the film is fine with good interval bang and second half its starts dragging after few minutes. The producer seems to have made this film keeping the success of Simha in mind. They have selected the same set barriers and Boyapati tries tried to emulate the formula of Simha. What this film lacks is powerful screenplay and pulsating direction. The film is just way too long. At around 160.29 minutes, Legend feels like a long, tiring watch. What makes the film seem even longer is the repeated scenes and the frequent change of mind that almost all characters go through. Better editing (Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao) would have done wonders to the overall impact.
When the screenplay fails to rise above the clichés and initiate a decent flash back, the writers try hard to induce humor through dialogues. Although at some instances the dialogues manage to tickle, the overall impact is nothing but dingy. Editing (Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao) could have been better while Cinematography (C Ram Prasad) is first-rate. Dialogues in the film are highlight "Rajakeeyam nee Blood lo undi emo naku Blood lo undi.. Bloody fool..", "Champithe Chavanoduu evadaina unte cheppu", "Narake kodhi neeku alapu vasthadi emo naku oopu vasthadi" etc. Music by Devi Sri Prasad is passable. Art work of the film is good. Production Values are grand.
First half of the film is okay, with solid interval bang but things fall apart in the second half due to thin point and dragged narration. A better script, more believable characters, some real trimming, pulsing narration and a modern style could have done wonders for Legend. But in the current form it succeeds in reminding about the earlier movies.
Overall, the intentions were honest, the effort that has gone into the making of the film very evident in every frame. It certainly has its moments, but not enough to deserve the price of your ticket unless of course, you're a Balakrishna fan. If you are, don't think twice, go watch it.

Legend is an acquired taste.
A Balakrishna movie is an acquired taste. You need to have grown up on a diet of Telugu cinema to appreciate its nuances.

Legend Movie Review
Behind the Movie Legend: Just before the elections in state, a film from Balakrishna with political touch is enough to keep high expectations set. Moreover, when the proven combination of ‘Simha’ is back, Nandamuri Fans were quite on high morals. Let us see, how ferocious are these roars of Lion?
In the Movie Legend: Jithender (Jagapathi Babu), a cruel cum rowdy politician belonging to Kurnool area eyes on Vizag due to an ego clash with local leader (Suman). After brutally murdering this leader and his wife (Suhasini), Jithender faces a tough opposition. Who is it?
Fast forward by many years, Krishna (Balakrishna) staying in Dubai comes to Vizag to get married with Sneha (Sonal Chauhan) before his family members. On the very stepping into Vizag, he reacts violently on atrocities of Jithender’s three sons. Immediately, Jithender attacks the entire family of Krishna but a brutal shock comes in the form of Jaidev (Balakrishna) to rescue the family.
Who is Jaidev? What is his flashback? What is his connection with Krishna? Why did he leave Jithender twice without killing? How did Jaidev spoil the political ambitions of Jithender? All these form rest of second half.
Values of the Movie Legend: When Lion begins to Roar, no one can stand before. This is why Balakrishna is called the Real King of Tollywood. No words to describe the outstanding, exceptional and gargantuan performance. Boyapati Srinu mastered the knack of satisfying Nandamuri Fans to core and he does it again without mistakes. Story is simple with rivalries and ego differences between two powerful people (Balakrishna and Jagapathi Babu). What mattered is the strong narration with high voltage scenes. Ratnam’s dialogues stand out inviting the shrieks from Fans especially in second half. Ram Prasad’s camera work is decent while Kotagiri’s editing was little confusing and erroneous. Stunt composition of Ram-Lakshman and Kanal Kannan stood on top of the credits. May be for the first time, DSP tasted the first power punch to his career composing to Balakrishna’s heroism. Of course, songs are mediocre and BGM was reverberating. Production values of Varahi and 14 Reels are stylishly beholden.
On performance front, there is not even an iota of negativity I can point out with Balakrishna. He is a power house performer. To be more straight, I can see teary eyes of Fans when ‘Legend’ arrives on screen just before interval. That is more than an achievement for any hero and any director. More than Krishna, it is Jaidev the show stealer. Styling done for Jaidev’s character is forever the best for Balayya after ‘Simha.’ While Sonal Chauhan filled the glamour part, Radhika Apte left an impression in a purposeful role. Coming to Jagapathi Babu, the voracious and blood thirsty broad eyes spoke the real villainy. He is the new antagonist on Telugu screen. Brahmi is a mere waste. Jayaprakash Reddy was not good and the voice dubbed for him was wrongly chosen. Nothing great to mention about others.
Out of the Movie Legend: On story front, ‘Legend’ has no great content. It’s the selection of lead artists and the highly scaled directorial abilities lifted the film to top. Even screenplay wise, more or less Boyapati showed the traits of ‘Simha.’ So what, when audiences are satisfied, rest goes to a corner.
If Jagapathi Babu took the responsibility of giving an explosive take off for the film, Balakrishna shouldered the entire second half. Of course, the character of Krishna and the total romantic, family thread looked weak and flaccid in first half. The real show begins with pre interval block when ‘Legend’ saves the family. Rest of the movie is completely taken upon oneself and that is the original Balayya. May it be the conversation with Delhi MP or the serious lecture on aborting the female fetus or the train action episode… everywhere Balakrishna showed the mark and you cannot stop Nandamuri Fans. Here and there, we can see loopholes in screenplay with sidelining of Krishna role in second half and the forcibly added climax thread with political motives or the excessive and lengthy sentiment yet presence of Balayya, even wrong becomes right.
Overall, the film is made to serve the interests of Nandamuri Fans and Boyapati Srinu delivered a perfect film as the right political footing to Balakrishna. When BP rises for Nata Simham, AP has to shiver! Theatres are to echo with only two slogans… ‘Jai Balayya Jai Jai Balayya’ and ‘Balayya… CM.’

Starring: Arul Saravanan, Urvashi Rautela
Director: J.D. Jerry
Producers: Arul Saravanan
Music Director: Harris Jayaraj
Cinematography : R. Velraj
Editor: Ruben
Famous businessman and Saravana stores owner Legend Saravanan is making his acting debut with the film The Legend. Apart from acting, the entrepreneur also produced this film on a whopping scale. The film hit the screens today. Let’s see how it is.
Dr. Saravanan (Legend Saravanan) hailing from Vanaparthi, is an eminent and world-renowned scientist who has made an exceptional contribution to the field of science. He comes back to his native with an intention to do something for his people and to make students great scientists like him. Moved by the death of his friend, due to juvenile diabetes he decides to come up with medicine that can cure the disease permanently. VJ (Suman) who does insulin business feels this invention is a threat to his business. What did VJ do to stop Dr. Saravanan? Did Dr. Saravanan achieve what he wanted to do? The answers can be known only on the big screen.
Plus Points:
The movie is mounted on a large scale which is very much evident on the screen. Each and every frame looks very rich and the makers have spent a bomb on the film. The songs are picturized in an amazing way.
Legend Saravanan’s performance is ordinary in his debut film. Both the female leads Geethika and Urvashi Rautela looked gorgeous and had good scope for their roles and they did a fine job while the former gets more screen time. The action scenes choreographed were of high quality and were also shot well.
Minus Points:
The main drawback of the film is its plot. It is very routine and predictable from the initial scene. The film runs on a commercial template that has become outdated now. The key twists placed in the film are pretty ordinary and one can easily guess them.
Neither of the halves makes an impact. As said during the promotions the film had all the aspects like emotion, romance, comedy, and action but nothing worked well as the execution is quite miserable.
The big-budget movie is irritating with many boring elements incorporated into it. The film keeps us constantly reminded of several other films where the protagonist takes on the might of the pharma mafia.
The film has a massive casting like Prabhu, Nassar, Suman, Robo Shankar, Yogi Babu, and Devadarshini but none of them make a mark as their scenes end abruptly. Lengthy run time tests the patience levels.
Technical Aspects:
The music by Harris Jayaraj is very good and his background score also makes an impact. The cinematography by Velraj is magnificent. The herculean effort put in by the technical team deserves appreciation as they made the film watchable.
Editor Ruben could have done a far better job by trimming the movie length. Coming to director JD – Jerry, he has done a poor job. He failed in delivering entertainment for the most part of the time and made it hell boring. He tried to tick all the boxes a commercial film has, but his packaging is misplaced.
On the whole, The Legend is an epic snore-fest. The film is quite disappointing with a lackluster screenplay and many boring elements. The director tries hard to give a proper masala entertainer but he fails to do so. The amazing production values and the lovely heroines are the saving grace in this routine drama. You can skip it and wait for another good film this weekend.

At around 160.29 minutes, Legend feels like a long, tiring watch. What makes the film seem even longer is the repeated scenes and the frequent change of mind that almost all characters go through. Better editing (Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao) would have done wonders to the overall impact.
