Beautiful and Touching!

While the movie is laced with emotional scenes, all these are stored in the second half. The first half of the movie is not that convincing though it sets up the mood. On the downside, the film is excruciatingly slow. Despite these minor flaws, “Manamantha” is one of the best made emotional dramas in the recent times in Tollywood. All in all, watch the film for its emotional content, good and earnest scenes and superb performances from the lead actors.

A 'slice of life' film

Manamantha is a slice of life film that deals with middle class values. Director Chandra Sekhar Yeleti gives an authentic narration coupled with a thrill element. Though it has four stories, director has made sure that there is no confusion in narration. Plus points of the film are terrific performances, different orientation and a heart-wrenching climax. On the flip side, narration is pretty slow. On a whole, Manamantha has all the ingredients to walk away with awards!

A Chandrasekhar Yeleti-mark Film!

Compared to First Half, Second Half is much better and the emotional scenes in Climax hit the right chord. Except for the Love Story, All the scenes were executed well and audience connect with them instantly. The pace of the movie is a big worry. 'Manamantha' will be pleasing to watch if gone with minimal expectations.

Realistic and beautiful

On the whole, Manamantha is a unique family thriller which impresses you completely. Movies like these are rare to come by and when they do, they are a treat to watch. The near perfect casting who gets into the skin of their characters is seamless and undoubtedly the greatest asset for the film. It would be really interesting to see how the commercial audience lap up a serious film like this. Finally, Manamantha is a movie which can be enjoyed thoroughly. Go for it.

Cliched, but feel good & heart-touching

'Manamantha' largely fits into a particular genre of human drama. And the telling is riddled with several cliches. Splendid performances, co-incidences, a heart-touching climax win the day for 'Manamantha'. Don't expect formulaic stuff. Put up with many cliches.

Yeleti hasn’t got back his mojo yet 

Manamantha is an anthology film. Each thread composes a character of a different age and gender and the challenge they are upto. But, one thing common between them is they belong to middle-class. The movie definitely had a handful of sparkling scenes, but the overall impact gets diluted due to the length. All in all, a film that could have been much better.

A film you cannot miss

Manamantha portrays human emotions convincingly and has a strong and gripping narrative.  The simple storyline is sure to touch the hearts of viewers at the end. Although the story begins slowly, the momentum builds up as the story progresses and completely grips the audience during the last 25 minutes.
