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

vAccording to Shirish, 2026 is set to be a major year for Sri Venkateswara Creations, with at least six releases lined up and nine films currently in production. Venu Yeldandi’s Yellamma, featuring Devi Sri Prasad in the lead, is scheduled for release next year. Rowdy Janardhana, starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Ravi Kiran Kola, is currently on floors and is planned for a Dussehra 2026 release. Ashish’s Dethadi is also slated for 2026. A Hindi remake of Sankranthiki Vasthunnam starring Akshay Kumar marks a significant Bollywood project, while Pawan Kalyan’s next film with the banner is expected in 2026. Vamsi Paidipally’s Hindi directorial debut with Salman Khan is set to go on floors soon, with a targeted release next year as well.
With multiple Telugu and Hindi projects moving simultaneously, Sri Venkateswara Creations is gearing up for one of its busiest and most ambitious years yet, strengthening its presence in both regional and national cinema.
