A Reasonably Engaging Tale of a Reluctant Factionalist
NTR Jr. It will not be an understatement to say that the film would not have worked without his electrifying presence. There is a certain comfort seen in the way he balances his calm demeanour in certain portions along with his fiery side otherwise.(more)

Trivikram's treatment of this plot scores over his indulgence as Jr NTR delivers another fine performance.
Trivikram's fascination for mythology lends well with the theme and the treatment scores over his indulgence this time. And Thaman's evolution as a composer truly benefits the film. A emotional drama camouflaged in a commercial exterior, here's a film that's courageous to stand apart from slapstick madness. (more)

Trivikram's Mark Faction
"Aravindha Sametha" is an old faction story that relies more on performances of NTR Jr and Jagapathi Babu and other actors. This is intense story with uneven screenplay. But it is worth a watch for NTR and the final sequences.(more)

Emotional Roller Coaster
Aravinda Sametha is an emotional roller coaster which has been narrated on a serious note. NTR gives a stand out performance and carries the film on his shoulders. Story wise, there is nothing new but Trivikram has made sure that the proceedings are content driven and do not sidetrack with unnecessary aspects. As it is a holiday season, the film will do well and please the audience who look for a perfect Dussera treat.(more)

Jr NTR, Trivikram Srinivas come together to deliver a riveting action drama
At a runtime of 167 minutes, there are a few segments in the film which are a tad too long, but thankfully, Trivikram Srinivas never loses focus on what he wants to say. For a while, there have been murmurs that the ink in Trivikram's pen is vanishing, but with Aravinda Sametha, he has made a strong statement that not only is the ink full in his pen, but also he paints the whole story with such broad strokes that you can't miss his signature style throughout the film. The trick lies in turning a familiar story into a character study and what would happen if only men listen to women more often. In times like these, it's more relevant than ever and needs to be underlined. Two big thumbs up for Aravinda Sametha.(more)
