Birbal Trilogy: Case 1 - Finding Vajramuni

After the success of his 2016 rom-com - Srinivasa Kalyana, MG Srinivas is back with a crime thriller. The story begins with the murder of a cab driver and an innocent guy, Vishnu (VJ Vineeth of OMK fame) who happens to pass by the crime spot is framed by the police. A young laywer, Mahesh (MG Srinivas) takes up this case to find out the real killer & to prove Vishnu as not guilty. How he does this, is what the movie's all about. The plot is interesting with quite a lot of twists. All the actors have acted well and the cinematography & the background scores are impressive. The title track of the movie is psychedelic, having vividly intense and abstract beats. However what hampers this movie from making it a great watch is its slow pace and lengthy screenplay which will bore you in between. Although the movie can get you confused with so many things happening, the climax is explained really well, with each & every scene shown in detail. All in all, this is a decent thriller to watch.
