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

Producer Naga Vamshi delivered an energetic speech at the success meet of Lenin held in Guntur, expressing his happiness over the film’s positive response and thanking audiences, distributors, the government, and everyone who supported the movie. He described the event as a special occasion, as he was returning to Guntur for a success celebration after nearly a decade. He recalled that his previous success meet in the city was for A Aa with Nithiin and director Trivikram Srinivas.

The producer revealed that the team had already organized success events in Visakhapatnam, Tirupati, and Hyderabad, but felt that celebrating the film’s success in Guntur was equally important. He said he personally requested Akhil Akkineni to attend the event, making it a memorable celebration for fans in the region.

Speaking about the film’s box office performance, Naga Vamshi said he gained confidence after witnessing the audience response on the first day. He expressed his belief that Lenin could become Akhil Akkineni’s first ₹100 crore film, crediting the audience’s support for the strong collections in the opening week.

He appealed to audiences to continue encouraging the film, stating that with no major Telugu releases arriving during the weekend, families could watch Lenin in theatres and help achieve the milestone. He also shared his happiness that Guntur distributors had already reached the break-even point and entered the profit zone, adding that seeing distributors celebrate success instead of worrying about losses was a proud moment.

Naga Vamshi further thanked Andhra Pradesh Cinematography Minister Kandula Durgesh for attending the event and appreciated the support extended by the Andhra Pradesh government, including Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, towards the film industry.

Concluding his speech, the producer expressed gratitude for the immense love and support received by Lenin and invited Akhil Akkineni to address the audience, saying fans were eagerly waiting to hear from the film’s lead actor.
