Sasana Sabha Telugu Movie Review: Despite having some unfamiliar faces on stage, Sasana Sabha has received a great deal of anticipation. Nata Kiriti Rajendra Prasad, of 7/G Brindavan Colony fame Soniya Agarwal, and the enticing trailer and marketing only added to the excitement. The film’s star power came from Sonia Agarwal, who became a media sensation. Now that it’s out, let’s check out the review and see if this political drama is worth your time.
Story
Sasana Sabha is about Narayana Swamy (Rajendra Prasad), a selfless politician who campaigns for office against the corrupt Sonia Agarwal character.

Movie Verdict
Sasana Sabha is a political film, a genre to which we have accustomed thanks to the countless others we have watched over the years. The movie starts out strong, delves into the plot, and picks up steam thanks to Rajendra Prasad’s early appearances. But then it just kind of goes downhill from there, with a boring love story and a lethargic first half that fails to keep our attention.
The second part of the picture has the same problem; except from a few political sequences, there is little fresh to the story, and the love story, comedy, and various commercial components feel tacked on. Although the film’s intriguing idea hooks you in, there is ultimately no significant tension. The plot is dated, which makes it difficult to hold the audience’s interest until the finale.
When it comes to acting, newcomer Indrasena (7/G Brindavan Colony) does an okay job as Surya, keeping up the heroic front but completely bombing at conveying any kind of emotion. Sonia Agarwal is a wonderful performer, but she seems miscast as a self-centered politician. The performance by Rajendra Prasad as Narayana Swami is excellent, and the rest of the cast does a fine job as well.
Although the premise is strong, K. Raghavendra Reddy, the film’s writer, has crafted an outdated tale, and Venu Mandikanti has only partially succeeded in captivating the audience’s attention amongst the recent invasion of content-based movies in Telugu.
Sasan Sabha, while being shot on a limited budget, manages to seem technically solid. The stunning photography by Krishna Murali made it seem larger than life, and despite the film’s predictable plot, the technical excellence kept audiences enthralled.
Overall, Sasana Sabha is a movie that will only resonate with a select audience and can be enjoyed in a single viewing.
