A fun watch, Premam shows a man, played by Naga Chaitanya, falling in love thrice.

Taking up a pan-Indian craze flick like Premam for a remake, that too within a year and half from its release and replacing Nivin Pauly and the much loved Sai Pallavi (Malar teacher) with Naga Chaitanya and Shruti Haasan is a courageous decision knowing they will not be spared by online trollers. You might not find a poetic visual narration or massy goosebumps moments in this version but if you want to witness a simple feel good romantic film again, Premam is not a bad option after all.

Premam will undoubtedly be the film that will take Naga Chaitanya to the next level as a star. He surprises you with his standout performance and is the sole reason to watch Premam. Romantic songs, entertaining narration and a feel-good nature of the script will surely be loved by the audience big time. If you stop drawing comparisons from the original and go with an open mind, Premam is one romantic entertainer which will keep you hooked throughout and makes up for a good watch this festival season.
Full of Love !

Chay has simply done a fab job and his expressions in all the three phases were outstanding. Especially in the third love story, Chay looked much more matured and the beard is just awesome. His styling and dialogues were completely apt. Shruti Hassan, Anupama and Madonna have done their best and lived upto the expectations. In the place of Sai Pallavi, the Malar Star, Shruti has done justice to it. On the whole, everyone in this movie has delivered their best performances.
Remake With No Soul

The beginning of the film is decent with a younger looking Naga Chaitanya going bonkers. Before one can make an impression of his performance the track is over and we get into the best part of the film that lasts three-fourth of the film. The chapter with Shruti Haasan is without any doubt best part of the film.
