Praveen Sattaru is back with another Love entertainment flick after LBW.
Story –
Sanjay (Sundeep) and Tanvi (Regina) become friends on a condition that the latter should agree to love the former in six months. After six months feelings towards each other changes and what happens to their love story is what this film is about.
Performances –
Sundeep is natural. He is very good in the confrontation scenes with Regina. He is a decent actor with loads of confidence. Regina is the show stealer. She has good looks and can act well. This combination is a rarity in Telugu films. She can go miles if she picks right films. MS Narayana’s comedy is okay and Vennela Kishore did a cameo. Tagubothu Ramesh is fine and rest of the star cast played their parts well.
Technical Performance –
As this is a love story, the colors are vibrant and it has cool locales. Art department and Camera department gelled well. Dialogues are alright and editing is adequate. Technical crew has been led by Mickey J Meyer’s music, which is the major asset for this film. Production values are good.
Director did a decent job in ably handling his resources. He has a different style and approach towards film and that is evident in all the scenes. His debut film scores on the content front and this one falls short of expectations, especially for the people that have seen LBW.
Analysis –
Director opened the story in a funny flashback format which is nice. Hero’s approach towards love and Heroine’s clarity have been explained well. First half races ahead until the interval point and later on it gets stuck for a while.
This is a typical story that doesn’t move ahead and fixes to a point and moves back and forth. Dealing with such subjects is a huge risk. Director challenged himself, but couldn’t come out with desired results. Last half hour of the film didn’t click as the comedy scenes and the climax backfired.
Despite the short comings, Routine Love Story scores due to the freshness in narration and good performances topped by cool musical score. Audiences who love to watch routine films with different approach can watch it. RLS appeals to young audience.
Verdict: Can be watched once

Prabhas Juggles Spirit and Pauji Amid Director Vanga’s Condition
March 1, 2026
Pan-India star Prabhas is set to lead the high-octane action thriller Spirit, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film is currently in production, and while shooting is underway, Prabhas is also simultaneously working on two other projects – Pauji and Kalki 2.
However, there’s a crucial condition that has gone viral. According to Vanga, once Spirit begins shooting, Prabhas cannot take on another film until it is completed. The director believes that juggling multiple projects at once would prevent Prabhas from giving 100% focus to his role. Reports suggest that Prabhas agreed to this condition and is committed to dedicating his full effort to Spirit.
That said, the current scenario shows a slight exception. Prabhas has been spotted working on Pauji alongside Spirit. Since Pauji is nearing its final schedule, holding the project could delay its release. It is said that Prabhas convinced Vanga to allow this overlap, balancing both commitments carefully.
Shooting for Spirit is progressing at a steady pace. Sandeep Reddy Vanga is known for his meticulous approach, preferring precision over speed. His previous films, such as Arjun Reddy and Animal, also took considerable time to complete.
The project has no budget constraints, but Vanga insists on completing every scene perfectly, even if it takes time. For Spirit, he is continuing his signature careful approach, ensuring the output matches his vision.
Meanwhile, Kalki 2 is set to go on floors soon, with director Nag Ashwin fully prepared. Once Pauji wraps up, Kalki 2 will officially begin.
