"Chirru" does not boast of a fresh story. The content seems to be a ready mix of several films, but the presentation is really good and engaging. Though the film drags in the first half, post interval its pacy and there are many attractive things that makes it an interesting watch.
New find Kriti Kharbanda looks ravishing in song sequences. She is good at dancing, but needs to improve her acting skills.
Coming to the flaws, the flow in the first half should have been pacier. Some unnecessary sequences in the first half should have been chopped off. Mahesh Babu has borrowed a few sequences from Telugu blockbusters including "Magadheera".
In the film, Chirru gets a job in a music firm in Bengaluru and there he meets Madhu accidentally. She is the daughter of the Home Minister.
Chirru bumps into Madhu on several occasion and it creates problems for him because the Home Minister's henchman mistakes him as her lover. Meanwhile, Madhu is dating Deepak and she even introduces her lover to Chirru. But the Home Minister's associates are unaware of Madhu and Deepak's relationship. They try to threaten Chirru and even attack him.
Chirru is unable to understand why he has been targeted. He loses his job because he fights with the Home Minister's 'chelas'. When a frustrated Chirru tries to return to his native place, he finds that Madhu is being chased by her father's henchman.
Among the character artists it is Rangayana Raghu who fares well. His performance in the climax sequence is sure to touch heart strings. Bullet Prakash is wasted in the movie.

Music is one high point of the film and Giridhar has certainly emerged as a talented composer. Three songs - "Ille Ille Ello", "Nanna Kannallidhe" and "Shambo Shiva Shankara" are sure to impress audiences.

"Chirru" is a well-packaged entertainer. Go for it.
