Entire story happens inside a house. It's difficult to engage audience for 2 hours inside a house. Team did a good job on that.

All actors seems to be new, except rajeev kanakala. It doesn't feel like they are inexperienced.

Music is a big plus to the movie. It feels fresh. I haven't heard this type of bgm in telugu movies.

Director claimed this is a true story. Usually im not a fan of true story movies. Even if this is not a true story, I would have liked same.

The look of the film feels a bit new. Party lights and golden. Cinematography is nice.

Scenes in film feels real. Dubbing done very nicely, gave organic feel.

During the birthday party, all their friends give birthday bumps and the birthday boy dies. Then later it is revealed there are twists.

For first 20 minutes it was decent. Around 20 min mark birthday boy dies. From here movie gets really interesting until the end. I was hooked until the end. It's 2hr length movie. For every 10 to 20 minutes there is a twist in the story.

Its a true story. After watching movie, just imagining how the real people in that situation might have felt and dealt with gave me chills.

All departments did good. Looks like all of them are new. Coming this quality from people new people is great.

I usually don't write movie reviews, but this film was so good that I couldn't resist. It's an emotional rollercoaster with a compelling story that keeps you hooked from start to finish. Every aspect of the movie was well done, but I was particularly moved by Balu's mother-her performance added the perfect emotional touch. The entire cast gave their best, bringing the story to life in such a heartfelt way. I highly recommend everyone to watch this movie; you'll truly enjoy it. I'm also looking forward to when the director finally reveals their identity-it's exciting to think about what they'll do next!
