Ooru Peru Bhairavakona

Story is quite unique blended with a touch of folklore. Especially Bhairavkona, the village which is a prison for souls soughting revenges. The story revolves around Bhairavkona and the actor. Casting actors have well portrayed their characters. I wished the story could have been knitted more properly as the subject was good. 2nd half could have been more detailed. Though it's not a romantic film, yet in my view, it wouldn't have spoilt the main subject. A little bit of more romance could have made it even more engaging. It sure that one will not regret after watching the movie. It's more then an average movie.

The film presents a promising story but falls short in its execution. The screenplay struggles, leading to a narrative that often feels uninspired and lackluster, although it does have its moments with a very few standout scenes. Unfortunately, the dialogue fails to elevate the material, lacking depth and impact.

Musically, the film manages to deliver two nice songs.

Sandeep Kishan delivers a commendable performance, consistent with his reputation for solid acting. Varsha Bollamma shines in her role, Kavya Thapar adds a spark to the film with her presence. Kishore and Harsha are fun.

The supporting cast turns in acceptable performances, doing what they can with the material provided. The cinematography is competent, offering some visual appeal, though the film's VFX elements do not meet the same standard, detracting from the overall experience.

While it may not justify the price of a movie ticket, the film could be an option for streaming on OTT platforms for those who find the premise intriguing enough to overlook its shortcomings.

Fantastic movie one of best movie of 2024. Proud to be hindu its shows true strength of hindus. Action , songs, story is excellent. Modern Indian who forgot out culture should watch this movie. The hero for love take risk rob jewellery and escape he burns himself and escape on bike. He finds a girl met with accident but like true hindu try to help her. To hide from police they enter a village in a remote jungle whose people follow true hindu culture and in that village the hero realise how strong and powerful his religion is. Imagine can any one fight with ghosts for his right but like a true hindu the hero fights. All indian should watch this gem to feel proud of their religion.

It's a below average watch.

The only movie which I never discussed with my friends after watching it because there was nothing good about the movie.

The setup of BhairavKona was good were people with unfulfilled wishes get settled but sadly the direction and screenplay came out very poor.

Even after setting up a perfect scenario the movie never has the intent to show the events in a serious manner The comedic punches ruined the whole movie.

The actors did an okayish job.

Only positive things were VFX and cinematography of the movie which felt good to watch otherwise the plot twists were not that good and climax was also forgettable.

A fantasy drama set in a village has become quite a trend in so called pan Indian South Indian cinema, especially in Telugu films. This wave started with movies like Karthikeya 2, Hanuman, and Kantara, which churned out big numbers. However, simply trying to capitalize on the trend often fails, and that's exactly what happened with this one.

The story follows a thief who, after a major robbery, escapes from the police and ends up in a village called Bhairavakona. Little did they know, the village is haunted by ghostly inhabitants, leaving them with no way back home. Moreover, the village holds a mysterious connection to the thief's past and love life.

This is a movie that makes no sense in any way. Even if you go in expecting a no-brainer, you'll find yourself in disbelief, wondering how such scripts get approved for production. With caricature-like characters and an absurd storyline, the film neither scares nor amuses. Even the so-called comedy feels like mockery.

Sundeep Kishan, despite being given a weirdly written character, holds his ground, making the film barely tolerable. Viva Harsha as his friend fails to deliver either comedy or impactful acting. Kavya Thapar's performance was amateurish, though Varsha Bollamma fares slightly better. Among the supporting cast, only Vennela Kishore stands out with his good comic timing. The rest either overact or seem to have forgotten how to act.

The screenplay is the biggest flaw here. It doesn't fit into any genre-be it horror, comedy, or fantasy. Logic takes a backseat, and you're expected not to question anything that unfolds on screen. Director VI Anand seems confused in his vision and should work on refining his craft.

Movies like this should only be watched when you're in the mood to watch just anything. It's not so bad that it'll give you a headache, but it's far from engaging.
