.Veeram might not have one of the best storylines, but it was a movie that targeted a set of audience and was made to satisfy them. One of the main reasons the flick clicked was majorly because of Ajith Kumar’s screen presence.

Pawan Kalyan is someone who has his own style of acting and mass factor and without an iota of doubt, you could say that Powerstar would do complete justice to a script such as this, even without seeing his performance. That is the consistency of the actor over the years. Having said that, let’s see how well the film as a whole has worked?

A hot-tempered guy (Pawan Kalyan) with 4 younger brothers, who falls in love with a soft, kind-hearted girl (Shruti Haasan). But to gain the love of the woman, he should never again resort to violence but that’s not going to be easy especially when the girl’s family is in danger. Does he manage to tackle the baddie at the same time not letting his love life fall berserk? This is the story of Katamarayudu. The core theme of Veeram has been retained, but the director has kept the screenplay as fresh as possible from the original Tamil version.

Even Pawan Kalyan's characterisation has been sketched quite differently from Ajith in Veeram. Here it is stiffer and subtle. They have taken special care on the romance part which is laced better and dealt more logically. The segment where Pawan falls in love with Shruti Haasan looks interesting, mainly because it shows Pawan Kalyan in a different shade - a subtle, fun, graceful and shy side.
