Sudarshan
(Srikanth) starts Kanchanamala Cable TV Network in a
village called Juvvalapalem. He names his Cable TV network
after his niece who is been missing for the past ten
years. A girl called Sirisha (Lakshmi Roy) pretends
like Kanchanamala and starts living with Kanchanamala's
parents. Sudarshan realizes the uses of spy cams and
decides to experiment it by exposing the clandestine
deals and illegal happenings in that village. He starts
showing those incidents live to the people of Juvvalapalem.
The rest of the story is all about how he changes the
village and marries his niece Kanchanamala.
Srikanth is good as the
cable operator. He imitated Chiranjeevi at times and
it all appeared pretty natural. Debutant Lakshmi
Roy is a disappointment. Sunil
is good as assistant of Srikanth. Satyanarayana
and Annapurna are adequate.
Among the gang of comedy villains, Krishna
Bhagawan is better. Venu
Madhav is adequate. Allari
Subhashini did a respectable role in this film.
Story
- screenplay - direction: Debutant director Pardha
Saradhi came up with an interesting story idea. But
he could not support it with logical screenplay. Screenplay
of the film is inadequate. Direction is not up to the
mark. Narration of the film is sloppy. The following
points in the script sound unconvincing - 
Other
departments: Music by KM Radha Krishna is decent.
A couple of songs hold your attention. Lyrics by Veturi
are excellent. Cinematography by Poori is adequate.
Dialogues by Marudhuri Raja are good, but director could
not get the comedy timing and punch right while canning
the film. Editing by Srikar Prasad is OK.
Analysis:
First half of the film is mediocre. The second half
is a letdown. The plus points of the film are music,
lyrics and a few comedy scenes. The minus points are
screenplay, direction and heroine. On a whole Kanchanamala
Cable TV disappoints.
