MOVIE REVIEW :-Hello everyone welcome to review and this is our non-spoiler review of the movie (Kishkindapuri). After watching the movie, my opinion is that the first half was good. The movie continues to be thrilling till the interval. The twist is also good. But the second half is not like the first half. It ends in a very regular way and is a horror film. I will tell you how I felt overall at the end. First, let's talk in depth. Coming to the story, Raghav and Maidili are doing ghost walking tours. Once, they have to go to a place where real ghosts are. They go to a radio station in Kishkindapuri. Who is the ghost in that radio station? Why is he killing everyone? The story is how the hero stops the ghost. Now, in the first 10 minutes of the movie, they show what happens if the ghost goes to the building and give the hero an introduction fight. Later, they show the hero working in a horror house and also give a song. Once they go to Kishkindapuri, the main story picks up. Actually, we get invested here. They design the story in such a way that we think what should not happen to them. The first half of the story has good horror and thriller elements. Actually, the movie would have been better if the same line had been kept for the second half as well. Except for the fact that the beginning of the movie started a little slowly until the interval, I didn't see any major minuses. The twist for the interval was good. In our Telugu movie template, the second half opens with the question of who is the ghost and what is its backstory. However, the better the ghost flashback, the better the movie. The entire second half depends on this point, but how did they deal with this point? The second half is not as thrilling as the first half.
2) And the reason for not liking it is some bad choices. The people who played the ghost character in the first half did very well. Their performance was good. The same actor recently did it in another successful movie. That is also not the reason. But that bad story is not that solid. Now, they have added strange twists in it, like I will give you a twist once in 10 minutes. What do these twists add to the movie? They just prolong the story. For example, in the second half, a character tells the back story of a ghost. After that character tells that story, they add another twist. The main characters themselves question why this happened and look for logic. But then again, when someone else tells the same back story of the ghost in a different way, they tell a point about the ghost that no one knows. Actually, no justification is given anywhere as to how that character knows this ghost story. However, this is not the main reason either. Okay, now the ghost story is known. Now we will see with interest how the hero fights the ghost, but this is where the issue begins. Nothing New Happens is doing the same thing that we have seen in ghost movies since our childhood, and in addition to that, the climax ends very uninterestingly. Shouldn't they give the lead to another part? Isn't it the latest fashion that is why I said that they went abroad for the movie's beginning song, and the hero and heroine will be performing again at the same song location. The movie ends with a cliffhanger. This cliffhanger doesn't come randomly. We should clearly understand that this point is being saved for the ending from the beginning. In a two-hour, five-minute movie, they put too many elements in the second half that is one hour long.
3) And what was not presented properly firstly. These movie makers have picked a good point. Our Ramayana is used in the movie. Actually, many people use Ramayana as a metaphor for storytelling. If you use it like that, the story is greatly enhanced. They also use it like that but in an efficient way. I will tell you what to do because you need to link it to Ramayana for example. The hero is named Raghava. There is a monkey scene in which Hanuman is like Rama. Under Kish, you know, the story is happening under Kish. The hospital is called Sanjeevini. The cemetery is called Lanka Vali, so everyone is included in it. In fact, there is also a head shot of Ravana 10. Again, this is a storytelling device that you have seen in the movie, not a spoiler, but it has no significance to the story. If the pony story has been enhanced in any way, then sadly, it is not a problem. The director tried to put a new point, but it did not change my watching experience. To say that the first movie directed by Kaushik Pegala Party is a bit better, Chavu Kabar, because it has a concept of love between Chavu Puttakalaka. I did not find anything like that in this one. The music is decent. Chaitan Bharadwaj's score went very well for the first off. When it comes to visuals and performances, Bellamkonda Srinivas' acting is like in his previous movies. Anupama actually had a good movie in the beginning of the year. His character in Jackin is very good. But he did not add anything to the next Parada or this movie. His performance in Parada would have been good, but this one is sadly lacking. And the villain in this movie is to good.
