This Sankranti clash is a bit special compared to others. Both 'Waltair Veerayya' and 'Veera Simha Reddy' were bankrolled by the same production banner and both of them had Shruti Hassan as the heroine. She paired up with senior heroes Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna in these films.
There was a time when people thought that Shruti Hassan's career was finished. But she came back to form with 'Krack' and she came with two big releases this festive season which made everyone hope that she would bounce back big time.
Many expected Shruti to reach the big league once again but looking these two movies, people were disappointed with the roles the actress did. She was kept just for the glamour sake and had very less substance.
In 'Veera Simha Reddy', she paired up with young Balayya's character. She indulged in heavy glamour show but her character lacked any substance. They wrote this role just to fit in a heroine beside young Balayya's role.
A lot of boring scenes in the movie are connected to Shruti Hassan. After an initial thirty minutes, her character was sidelined completely and she was presented in the second half just to dance for a song. Her jodi with Balayya did not work out as well.
Coming to 'Waltair Veerayya', she played an undercover RAW agent role and she was presented in a very silly fashion. People laugh at Bobby's depiction of serious RAW agents in this film. Her look did not work out at all and her pairing with Chiru looked a bit odd as well. While there was a lot of talk about being the heroine in both the big Sankranti releases, Shruti's fans were completely disappointed with the roles she was given.
