Poorna looks good and is passable in her role. Bhumika is beautiful and she is convincing in her brief limited role.

Kota Srinivasara Rao is regular while others Brahmanandam, Ali, Venu Madhav made cameo appearances

Technical Analysis

Chakri’s musical scores are mediocre and same is with the background score. Cinematography is okay and has nothing to boast of. Ravi Babu’s direction is bad, screenplay is terrible while editing is pathetic. Makeup artists however did amazing job. Being a Ravi Babu directorial with Allari Naresh as lead, audiences would expect entertaining comedy scenes from the film, but Laddu Babu is poorly penned movie. Production values are standard.

Analysis

Being the Allari film combo (Ravi Babu and Allari Naresh), audiences have expected a good comedy entertainer. The posters and look of Allari Naresh has raised hopes on the movie, however, Laddu Babu has neither entertaining elements nor engaging script. Ravi Babu seems to have totally focused on Allari Naresh’s look than the script. Screenplay is highly predictable that the curiosity element is missing.

Laddu Babu lacked impressive comedy scenes and the film falls flat with nothing exciting coming up. Too many illogical scenes make the proceedings unconvincing. Allari Naresh has put in lot of efforts to be shown as a fat guy but his work has gone completely in vain due to wafer-thin storyline and uninteresting narration.

Laddu Babu remains as one of the poor films in both Allari Naresh and Ravi Babu careers.
