Anaganaga Oka Raju is a light-hearted time-pass entertainer that works mainly because of Naveen Polishetty.
His comedy, energy, and screen presence carry the film. Dialogues and a few comedy blocks land well, aided by pleasant visuals and Mickey J… pic.twitter.com/hJoDeikMoC

#NaveenPolishetty steals the show in #AnaganagaOkaRaju, with a hilarious first half and a decent second half. The films comedy and energy keep it entertaining, despite some monotony in the latter part. Overall, its a fun watch.

#Review – #AnaganagaOkaRaju
Vibe:
A festival entertainer that proudly wears its predictability like a silk pancha. Anaganaga Oka Raju doesn’t ask, “What’s new?”—it asks, “Laugh first, logic later.” And to be fair, whats life with out some laughs 😆.

Anaganaga Oka Raju- fun entertainer with some drags. The comedy works very well especially the ghost segment in the second half. The songs and bgms are all good as well. Overall good entertainer, the random drags could’ve been avoided. 3.5/5 pic.twitter.com/GjTiQZv3gN
