Heroine Raskmika’s characterization as a routine village girl in a deglamorized role has nothing to talk about. Ajay Ghosh, Suneel and Rao Ramesh played villains and honestly there isn’t much conflict here to generate rugged action scenes of any sort. The lack of a proper villain does not help the movie either. However, it borders the line of a flat narrative. For most part director Sukumar maintained the subtle narration without over-the-top heroism. The rustic Chittor Forest village set up, people and dialect are done effectively. Pushpa’s character is well established through the first half as a realistically greedy youth who aims to reach the next level of success with just his guts and foresight. Pushpa’s introduction as a coolie in the gang is rustic and seemingly authentic. The film opens with a voice over describing the demand for red sandalwood in the international market, via graphics in an interesting reverse flow from the consumer in Japan to the Seshachalam forest from where it is smuggled via Chennai & China. Set in the forest backdrop of the Seshachalam forest, the film follows Pushpa’s rise from a coolie to that of a red sandalwood syndicate leader. Pushparaju is a daily wage worker with the ambition and attitude to win big.
