Sai Dharam Tej's Second Telugu film "Rey", which was to mark his acting debut, but got delayed due to financial problems, has finally been released in theatres worldwide (on 27 March).
"Rey" is a musical-romantic entertainer, which is high on dance and action. The film's hero is a third generation Telugu guy living in the West Indies. The heroine is a Telugu girl from India, who comes to the West Indies to take part in a dance competition. The subject of the film is completely away from the Telugu nativity. The word "Rey" is a shout for success and is quite suitable for its title.
Written, directed and produced by YVS Chowdary, "Rey" features Sai Dharam Tej and Saiyami Kher in lead roles. Shraddha Das, Farhad Shahnawaz have also played equally important roles in the film, while Arpit Ranka, Tanikella Bharani, Brahmanandam, MS Narayana, Jaya Prakash Reddy, Ali, Raghu Babu and Venu Madhav are in the supporting cast.
"Rey" has good story, superb performances by actors and rich technical aspects. Sai Dharam Tej's energetic performance, YVS Chowdary's script, Chakri's music, Gunasekharan's cinematography and wonderfully choreographed action and dance sequences are the main highlights of the film, according to the audience.

#Rey has been watched. I am not satisfied personally with the outcome. #SaiDharamtej excelled in dances. Don't expect much, one time watch.

An amazing story packaged in a beautifully tight screenplay without a wasted scene that keeps the audience engaged fully throughout.... Best Telugu movie dat I hv saw in long tym n it's probably one of the best movies dat I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Period YVS Chowdary deserves an applause for handling a top billed cast wit such perfection n thereby delivering one gem of a movie. SDT flesh out a performance that can only be described as magnificent. He shuld be grateful to his director 4 offering him such a role. Go see it! Bcoz otherwise u would b missing the chance to see a most remarkable film performed to perfection.Game changer of TFI #Rey
