Sasivadane movie review:
Sasivadane, now streaming on Sun NXT, is directed by Sai Mohan Ubbana and stars Rakshit Atluri and Komalee Prasad in the lead — a pair who fit naturally into the film’s serene rural backdrop. It’s a movie that feels like a quiet walk through the countryside: pretty, gentle, and occasionally slow.
The Good Stuff
The film’s biggest strength is its atmosphere. The Godavari/Konaseema landscape is captured beautifully, almost functioning like a character of its own. Rakshit Atluri brings a soft, sincere presence to the screen, while Komalee Prasad slips comfortably into her role with a natural charm. Together, they create a believable village-side romance.
The music also deserves credit — the songs and background score give emotional weight to several moments that might have otherwise felt too simple.

The Not-So-Good
As appealing as the setting is, the story itself plays very safe. The plot follows a well-trodden path: innocent romance, societal obstacles, predictable conflicts. The first half, in particular, drags with scenes that could’ve been a lot tighter. The antagonist lacks depth, which weakens the tension the story tries to build.
Should You Stream It?
You’ll enjoy Sasivadane if you’re into:
Classic rural Telugu romances
Slow-paced emotional storytelling
Scenic visuals and soft music
But if you’re craving fresh writing or a gripping narrative, this one might feel too familiar.
