Artists Performance:
Dhanush: Playing a tailor-made role, This skinny hero yet again reminds us what a fabulous actor he is in his 25th Movie. His ease of acting, expressions and dialogue delivery were remarkable.
Amala Paul: She does justice to her role playing a girl-next-door & neighbour who falls in love with Protagonist.
Saranya as Hero's Mom has played her part so well. Samuthirakani as Hero's Father is equally good. Surabhi looks pretty and makes her presence felt. Comedian Vivek produces few laughs. Hrishikesh as Hero's Brother and Amitesh as Antagonist were decent. Rest of the cast in adequate!

Minus Points:
- Telugu Lyrics
- Slow Pace
- Predictable Second Half
Analysis:
'Raghuvaran B.Tech' is the Telugu dubbed version of Dhanush's landmark flick (25) 'Velai Illa Pattathari'. While the First Half throws a light on the life of an unemployed youth, The Latter Half banks heavily on Mother Sentiment & his success as a Civil Engineer. Love Track, Witty One-liners and Message work in favour of this movie. On the flip side, Its a bit slow paced and predictable at times.
Anirudh's songs and backgrounds score were impressive. However, Its the Telugu lyrics which were a big let down. Cinematography is pleasing. Dialogues were pretty good but gets repetitive at times. Editing could have been better in Second Half. Production Values are laudable.
Box Office: 'Raghuvaran B.Tech' has got decent chances of turning successful at the ticket window. Both 'Mukunda' and 'Chinnadana Nee osam' losing the steam will help this dubbed dubbed flick eventually. May be, It marks Dhanush's first success in Telugu is everything goes well.
Verdict: Watch it for Dhanush's stellar performance!
