After more than 17 years, this bitter wine has aged perfectly well, as this is being well received about the music, the screenplay and the direction. The cinematography as said in the above original review and the recording of live voices during shooting is revolutionary at that time. The entire backdrop and setting are light-hearted at start goes with blend of emotion and action. Attention to detail and serious acting really make you connect with the film and characters who barely speak.
While the expectations are truly high at the time of release and the kind of audience not just Pawan fans are still in the cocoon phase of being accepted anything radical and unconventional. Also, the controversies during that time added great amount of negativity over positiveness. Whether Pawan should've debuted with a different 'safe' script or not attempted at all is a waste topic to discuss. Hence, here no one to blame but the 'TIME'
I think this result didn't made pawan to rethink as we have seen much more experiments (in terms of Gudumba and Balu). But then it certainly made him mature.Now with the mainman is not being seen in the movies anymore at least for now, all we can do is to revisit these classics and get down the memory lane...

As it is known wisdom has no age, we cant expect that pawan is not wise to direct a movie, it is not that experience that counts but the zeal and inquistiveness. In tollywood many debutant directors made a mark, if pawan loses one , he may strike back just as in the case of his movie career
dear sir, the more things change the more they remain the same.this is true of pawan kalyan"s johnny.the film's screenplay has been bestowed with scant attention which has been diverted towards the stunning fights.that fights would be the piece de resistance of a pawan kalyan movie was a foregone conclusion.to handle the emotional scenes better it would have been apt for him to take a page or two out of manirathnam's book.the emotional scenes are the ones on which pawan fails to deliver and they end up causing unrest among the die-hard fans .all in all , an ordinary debut for pawan dharani
We, Pavan fans waited two years for a blockbuster movie. we are very much disappointed with tons of senti scenes in film. We strongly advise pavan to go for another music director in his next movie. Gogula scores are monotonus. Its better for pavan kalyan to stop showing Johnny and release his past films till his next film hits theatres.
