What is good about the movie? Ravi Teja
Why should you watch this movie? Ravi Teja

Ravi Teja has established himself as a different actor with his coastal andhra accent and highly energetic performances. I have not seen anyone in Indian Cinema who has more energy levels than Ravi Teja. There is a song in "Naa Autograph" where one line about Ravi Teja goes like this "alupantu eragani ravitejaanni" (ravi means sun and teja means radiance. the phrase describes him as sun's radiance which doesnt know what is being tired). I couldnt agree with it more.

Pre-movie Talk
There was a lot of hype surrounding the movie as Srinu Vytla's previous movie Dhee was a super hit movie and Srinu Vytla-Ravi Teja's earlier combination was again a super hit comedy riot. This movie was supposed to be a milestone in providing entertainment and Ravi Teja was to repeat his magic.

Plot
Ravi Teja plays a character, Srinivasa Rao who is known as Dubai Seenu for his passion to go to Dubai. He gets tricked in Mumbai and had to put up a vada paav shop there. He gets to meet Nayantara and follows her to Hyderabad. There is a small suspense element and what Ravi Teja does is the 2nd half.

Entertainment
Entertainment is mostly provided by Ravi Teja. Though there were 2 booze scenes (booze scene in Srinu Vytla movie is defined as something that makes people laugh non-stop from 15-20 minutes), they werent as effective as they were in Dhee or Venki or Anandham. Shayaji Shinde wasnt effective in making audience laugh with him. He looks funny though. Raghubabu as Shayaji Shinde's side kick is good. Brahmanandam is wasted in his role. MS Narayana steals the show in the 2nd half very well supported with an excellent characterization.

Music is average unlike Dhee or Venki. Dubai Seenu title song is good and a melody "Kanyaraasi".

Dubai Seenu has most of the cast, hero's friends, Krishna Bhagwan, Brahmanandam, heroine's father, Mallikarjun Rao, as in Venki. Movie narration is different from those of Srinu Vytla's movies. The way movie starts makes one feel that it might be an action movie. Srinu Vytla tried to put in lot of entertainment and mix it with drama and revenge. Of course there wouldnt be any movie these days without a little romance.

Ravi Teja was in his usual self. He drives the entire movie. Ravi Teja shares a good chemistry with Nayantara. Nayantara looks good (and great when she wears sarees) but is without any expression in some scenes and in some songs as well. She suddenly changes her expression. It looks as if she was not informed before the camera was called. MS Narayana looks awesome as SalmonRaj, the aged actor who intereferes in all the roles and is a nuasance to everyone on the sets. He was clearly protraying a leading actor in telugu cinema.

Overall, the movie makes a good watch. Suitable for Category A, B, C & D viewers.
