this film for its comedy elements and Mahesh's powerful presence."  

 dookudu collections till now


The Times Of India also gave a three and half rating noted ""Dookudu" is a typical Srinu Vytla film with a generous sprinkling of comedy. His narrative manages to keep the audience engaged     until the end of the movie."
Deccan Chronicle rated three stars commented "Although, it is a tale of a honest   cop who is on
the trail of a dreaded don, director Sinu Vaitla relies on a band of comedians like Brahmanandam
and M.S. Narayana to sustain audience interests, before his protagonist accomplishes his mission."

Sify praised the lead performances writing "Mahesh Babu`s role, particularly in the action episodes, rocks."

NDTV stated "Mahesh Babu's style, dialogues and his fight sequences are a plus. Samantha Ruth Prabhu is largely an eye-candy in the film. Despite the star cast, the film's biggest flaw is the       weak screenplay and several illogical sequences".Venkat of Greatandhra.com said "Overall, the film has the right ingredients to appeal the family audience and though most of it is expected, it is the pace and ability with which the audience is engaged and the entertainment value they get."
On the other hand, the film also received some mixed and negative reviews from other critics. Pavithra Srinivasan of Rediff gave it 2.5 out of 5 and criticized the film's screenplay and logic-defying sequences, 
while praising the performance of Mahesh Babu, calling his role a "cakewalk" and recommending the film
for his fans in particular.
Prakash of Oneindia.in said "To sum up, Dookudu is just another average entertainer and not in the same league as Mahesh Babu’s earlier blockbusters like Athadu and Pokiri."
Haricharan Pudipeddi of nowrunning.com said "Mahesh shines in Dookudu but movie falls short." giving it 3 out of 5 stars.

Box office
