A cop (Rajendra Prasad) approaches Waltair Veerayya (Chiranjeevi), a sailor and respected member of his community, and requests his help in extraditing Solomon Caesar (Bobby Simha), a criminal, from Malaysia to India. Waltair Veerayya has consented to finish the project for Rs 25 lakhs despite being reputedly skilled at such duties. Michael Solomon (Prakash Raj) and Solomon Caser, his younger brother, run a drug distribution enterprise in Malaysia. After having affections for the hotel supervisor (Shruti Haasan), Veerayya is startled to discover that she is actually an undercover cop who intends to exploit Veerayya in their operation.

However, Veerayya is more than just a fisherman, and the police are unaware of the fact that he consented to bring Solomon to India for objectives aside than personal gain. What is the plot of Veerayya’s tale and how does it relate to ACP Vikram Sagar (Raviteja)? The remainder of the story is formed by the replies to these questions.

PLOT

Waltair Veerayya is played by Chiranjeevi, who is excellent as always. The dancing and fight scenes are good. He has a sharp appearance and excellent comic timing. The second half is brought to life by Ravi Teja in a unique role, and his interactions with Chiranjeevi are delightful to watch together. His enthusiasm and on-screen charisma greatly increase the entertainment value. Despite playing a negative character, Bobby Simha has finally landed a solid job with lots of performance room. He managed to accomplish it. Although she is only in the first part of the film, Shruti Haassan gets a good role.

Performances

There is a lot of humor and fun in the first half, including the attractive song, the Boss Party. Even though Chiranjeevi receives the traditional “hero” entry in a masala film, the very first half of the movie appears to be a significant departure from his usual films. To please Megastar Chiranjeevi fans, Bobby Kolli makes an effort to distinguish as much as he can between the two portions of the movie. The director sets up a thrilling intermission block post when there is a ton of action and Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja enters. The writing itself is flawed. The first part of Waltair Veerayya is somewhat unexceptional.

Direction / Technical Side

At 67 years old, Chiranjeevi is a tremendous powerhouse of energy, and the director has utilized him to revive the image of the classic Megastar. Chiru and Raviteja working together on screen ought to have produced some amazing combination situations, yet nothing like that happens. Although the concept might have been excellent, the way the film is presented by director Bobby falls short. Only for “vintage” Chiranjeevi fans.
