Performances:
Sai Pallavi is the heart and soul of Virata Parvam. She excelled in the role of Vennela. She lived in the character and no words can describe what justice she has done to the character.
Rana Daggubati has done complete justice to the character. His appearance and his diction have made Ravanna’s character lively. He is commendable.

Technicalities:
Suresh Bobbili should be commended for the work he has done in Virata Parvam. All the songs are passable on screen and he has excelled with his BGM work. The editing is fine. The cinematography artwork is decent. The forest backdrop and the night effect are captured in a nice way.
The production values are decent for a mid-budget flick. Coming to Venu Udugula, he has done a nice job when it comes to writing. The dialogues are hard-hitting and thought-provoking. His direction is flawless and doesn’t deviate from the core point. He should be appreciated for that.
Analysis:
Virata Parvam is a hard-hitting, raw, and emotional love tale. The Naxal backdrop is utilized very well. However, the lack of universal appeal and limited reach might hinder the box office prospects. Overall, it is a decent one-time watch.
