Twisted storylines to engage is not novel anymore.
saikarunbalivada12 April 2024
The story takes a while to pick up since the happenings are common like many other flicks in this genre. However, the intertangled connections between characters is the interesting part. There are no scares nor the movie is a horror flick. Its a thriller around black magic and has its platter decently full and tasty. The premise reminds of a recent good film 'Maa Oori Polimera-1'. Anyway actors are good and the screenplay isn't boring.

The ghost depictions are rather funny.

Killings or murders have been shown in a casual way which surprises. Its like a normal task. Haven't heard or seen the word LAW or POLICE anywhere.

Still with a few flaws its an interesting one time watch. Though next movies of the same premise would definitely start to get boring.

Hard Pass

This flick is a wild ride into the land of "what were they thinking?" territory. It's got a sprinkle of decent moments, sure, but then it's like they decided to bulk up the script with all sorts of nonsense, as if someone's younger sibling got hold of the draft and went to town with a crayon.

The screenplay is a disaster - imagine trying to assemble a puzzle where none of the pieces fit, and for some reason, they're all covered in glue. It's a struggle, and not the rewarding kind. And the dialogues? They're so clunky and awkward, you'll find yourself wincing more than anything else.

Directing seems to have been an afterthought, with the whole thing coming off as if someone watched a couple of YouTube tutorials and declared themselves a director. It's amateur hour from start to finish, lacking any sort of coherence or finesse.

Don't even get me started on the production values. If cutting corners was an Olympic sport, this movie would take home the gold. Everything from the sets to the costumes screams budget cuts, making you wonder just how much they actually spent on making this film.

As for the acting, well, it's about as inspiring as a wet napkin. No one seems to be putting in much effort, with performances ranging from "barely there" to "please stop."

In short, this movie's a hard pass. It's not even worth the watch for ironic enjoyment or as a background noise. There are countless better ways to spend your time.

engaging thriller in Tollywood is rare (less or no horror).

In telugu in general horror and thriller gnere is always missing in either engaging story part or screen play part of narration or weak backdrop... But this movie has almost every aspect is good. Even songs are also good... nice love stroy... nice and unexpected twists...

It would be nice if the climax of the movie is more stronger and challenging. Ofcourse that slimax is defnitely better than several other horror movies, but weak in comparison to what movie has been promised.

Good Movie. Some good info about tantra is shown. Those who know will appreciate it. Climax should have been strongly made, it should have been effective and should create goosebump moment. Movie went well thrilling and awesome except much simple climax with no effect. Overall thrilling. Good concept and info given is nice. Less characters and good connecting points. Appreciations to director! New way of horror concept drama with no unusual worst revenge scenarios. Concept explained clearly about tantras and divine worship natures. This was happening in earlier days in villages but now it is very rare to see and so feels foolish and not believable. This is true and it's a potential skill which was unfortunately used and linked to destruction sequentially because it was used for so so..
