In all, Yamaleela 2 lacks the freshness and charm of Yamaleela. Blame it on story or blame it on mundane narrative style of Krishna Reddy which is reminiscent of the ’90s, Yamaleela 2 is tedious watching. Bottomline: 20 Years Later.

Overall, this is a film which required better execution but thanks to the performances it was a little watchable. At the box office, the film would appeal the masses to an extent but it doesn’t have enough to score big. Bharatstudent verdict: Not smo.

All in all, Aadi’s backbreaking physical strain did not get a right platform to elevate. For any class of audience, you find nothing to rejoice here. Commercially, it’s a tough journey for ‘Rough.’.

Box Office: 'Rough' is a film aimed at attaining mass image for Aadhi. This action flick got released in 425 screens across the World but have very little scope to do well at the Box Office.

On the whole, ‘Rough’ is a below par mass entertainer which lacks an interesting story line. Aadi’s performance and a few emotional scenes here and there are the only saving grace in this film which is quite outdated and boring..

Watch Rough to see Aadi as an action hero, Srihari as a brother and killer onscreen chemistry of Aadi and Rakul Preet..
