Plus points (+)


We saw many popular movies in the past, mostly in Bollywood, where a simple man filed a law suit against God when his shop was destroyed in a natural disaster, and many more humorous movies. But Director Sandeep Reddy Bandla goes one step ahead, where his whole movie revolves around condoms—comedic drama.

The first half totally revolves around Suhas and Sangeerthana's day-to-day lives, where director Sandeep Reddy Bandla mostly highlights Suhas's character, who faces financial issues and takes bold decisions not to become parents, while the first half's target audience's are those people who like silly comedy and less logical. Because these are many scenes, mostly of Vennela Kishore's character, where his mission is grabbing audience attention through silly comedy where logic does not exist.

While the other side, the second half, gives us mixed feelings of comedy and emotional scenes of the harsh reality of a middle-class person who has a low salary and a large family face society and parental pressure. Janaka Aithe Ganaka film is very similar to Good Newwz (2019) comedy and Daram movie directed by Raj Mehta because both movies story is different but comedic plot is similar to each other.

Janaka Aithe Ganaka film perfectly matches Suhas personality. Because the first half of his emotions gives a clear indication about what the film is all about and what's going to happen next, Prasad as Suhas plays a wonderful role. In the first half, he shines as a salesman who hates his job and boss due to being less educated; he has not many options to quit this job while Suhas and Sangeerthana married. Life and family drama gives mixed vibes.

Technically, we can say that Suhas is the hero in the film, which is absolutely correct, but in terms of comedy, silly comedy, Vennela Kishore beats him, especially in the first half of the film, where Vennela Kishore comedy dialogues hold the audience on their seats while Sangeerthana Vipin, who is the lead actress and plays the role of Suhas wife, performance hits differently; she appears most of the time on screen wearing a nighty.

Gadde Rajendra Prasad as judge mostly appears in the second half of the flim where his performance is next level; his character is most funniest after Vennela Kishore; he looks a little bit awkward in the judge role if you see his Brahmalokam To Yamalokam Via Bhulokam (2010) romantic-comedy flim. 

Minus Points (-)


Director Sandeep Reddy Bandla's intentions are good about this film, and he adds a social message in the ending of the second half, But due to the slow pace and unwanted dramatic scene, the audience loses interest before reaching the end.

The first half plays 90% contributes to flim success, while the second half only contributes 10%, not because of the interesting story because of the screenplay. While Sangeerthana Vipin is a talented and wonderful actress, in the after-interval we can clearly see that her character is artificially compared by makers. If makers give her more freedom to express her character, which looks more natural and interesting.

No doubt Gadde Rajendra Prasad is a comedic actor in the Telugu film industry, but in this film, where he plays the role of judge, he is looking a little bit awkward, not just with his silky comedy but due to the play's more devotional movies like Brahmalokam To Yamalokam Via Bhulokam and more.

Technical aspects


After successfully writing the Salaar (2023) movie script, Director Sandeep Reddy Bandla this time put his hand in a mid-budget movie where comedy and drama lead the whole film. He did wonderful work in the first half, where everything perfectly works, but in the second half he is not maintaining the same level of energy as in the first half.

Vijai Bulganin's music is decent, but his background music hits differently while Sai Sriram's cinematography skills are clearly seen in the film, but if editor Kodati Pavan Kalyan speeds up the second half, which gets a positive response from the audience.
