Kiran Abbavaram and Gouri Priya's acting is a highlight.
'Chennai Love Story' presents a fresh love story in a completely new way. You can say the screenplay does its magic. The story, told from the heroine's point of view, lets Sri Gouri Priya shine. Her performance is a major highlight. Kiran Abbavaram is equally brilliant. He nails the emotional scenes and expressions, proving his mettle as an actor. While the first half is amazing, the second half slows down a bit. If that was balanced, the film would have been on another level.
