Plot - It is about a complex relationship between a girl and boy, which explores the complexity of girls' attitude.Performances - Naga Chaitanya is the best among the current lot when it comes to acting in romantic movies. May be, that quality is inherited by him from his father (Nagarjuna) and his grand father (Nageswara Rao) who are known as the best actors for romantic roles in their respective times. His cool attitude and underlying arrogance is just fabulous. He carried the role with élan. Samantha makes a fine debut. All other actors like Krishnudu, Sanjay Swaroop, Devan, Surekha Vani, Sudheer Babu,Lakshmy Ramakrishnan did well in their respective roles. Director Puri Jagannadh, Trisha Krishnan and Simbu shine in their brief cameos.Story, Screenplay & Direction - Story is wafer thin though a refreshing one. Screenplay is what makes this thin story-line workout. It is outstanding. Direction by Gautam is superb.Music & Background Score - Music by A.R.Rahman is just out of the world. It so melodious, intricate, intriguing, captivating, serene... Well words fall short to describe his genius. This is easily his best work for straight Telugu films. And the Background Score is equally extraordinary. Each and every emotion undergone by the lead couple has his backing. In a way, he carried the entire film on his able shoulders. This again proves a point that, what a great music composer can do to a subject which has scope for good music.Dialogues - Dialogues by Umarjee Anuradha are classy.Other technical Departments - Photography by Manoj Paramahamsa is just extraordinary. Editing is good. Art work is nice. Production values are excellent.Finally - This is a beautiful Lovestory and is shot beautifully & aesthetically. Don't go looking for some cheesy commercial elements. This is not for you if you anticipate a few laughs and larger than life fights. Thumbs up for Naga Chaitanya's acting, A.R.Rahman's music, Gautam Menon's direction and Manoj Paramahamsa's photography. Thumbs down for a (little) slow second half. Classic movie.

well to say...days after the movie released....still the memories preserved fresh of the flick "ye maya chesave".i myself bought the blu- ray....that grabbed a place among the few telugu flicks i have in my rack.the beauty lies in the narration of the story,which is scintillating and flamboyant. gautham handled the script in a sensible manner(may be his own personal depiction),and the dialogues are laudable.the costumes are catchy(spykar) that adds a light to the background scenes.this is to be lifted,the cinematography.manoj has done it all.it is the main reason for the beauty of the movie.music by arr is outstanding.all the songs in the album are awe(,after boys)chaitu has done a better performance than his previous flick josh. samantha the new comer stole the hearts.overall a perfect movie without the so called bang bang scenes,tear rolling sentiments,nasty items and head cracking dialogues.thanks to gautham for bringing this flick to us.

It's a beautiful movie. Most of the love stories go through the situations pictured in the movie, though the ending in Telugu is predictable. But it doesn't matter as most of the film revolves around the two principled characters describing their journey.Many of the situations in the movie stand out. The whole sequence of samantha asking chaitanya to take her to a movie and then finally as they return back home, their small dispute is very engrossing. Even the dialogues are so simple, there is no loud music, bang-bang going on and finally samantha is mesmerizing. She allures you and even her acting for a first timer is brilliant. The scene where she asks chaitanya about why he is so crazy about her is terrific; her expressions, body movement and the way she speaks is superb. Also to be lauded is the person who dubbed the dialogues to samantha.Kudos to chaitanya also for underplaying so wonderfully and trying to venture into subtle kind of cinema.

Ye Maya Chesave...It's about the love and only love,,,, i never seen a movie like this on telugu screen... I would like to appreciate Mr Gautham Vasudev Menon for his brave attempt...it is a movie of excellency...It is the story about two people and their feelings (excitements,conversations,fighting's & pain ) in love... the characters in this movie are so realistic and romantic... dialogues are very nice & simple, just like how we would talk to anyone in real life...Music by AR Rahman is excellent... songs are picturised well and placed nicely in the movie...
