Karma

Just watched Karma-the first half had me completely hooked with its engaging setup, but the second half? Absolutely mind-blowing! The intensity skyrockets with every twist and turn, keeping you on the edge of your seat till the very end. And that background music? It's next level, elevating every scene and adding a whole new depth to the thrilling atmosphere. Plus, don't miss the post-credit scene! It's worth the wait and adds an extra layer to the story. Stay till the end for the full experience! Trust me, this is one of those films that deserves to be watched in a good theater. The visuals and sound design are best enjoyed on the big screen for maximum impact. Don't miss out on this incredible cinematic experience!

Those who always say, Odia films are not upto standards, and are always a copy of Tamil or Hindi films, please go and watch KARMA.

It's a gripping thriller movie about "karma and karma ra phala".

Story Highlights - * Gripping screenplay * 1 plot twist pre interval * 3 plot twists in last 30 minutes (Don't leave in a hurry. The twists just keep coming till the last reel.)

Acting Highlights - * Amazing ensemble cast - the guys who play the cops, and the 1 veteran stage actor who plays the graveyard caretaker * Anubhav Mohanty - usual super star style befitting his fandom expectations (as usual some may think he is a bit overacting at times). But you cannot deny his amazing screen presence and personality

Production Highlights- * Amazing direction and camera angles * the background music is it's super strength, which elevated every scene * locations - shot mainly in and around Twin City (including a Church at Cantonment Road Cuttack) are amazing

Songs - * Amazing music by new music director * 2 chartbuster songs

If anyone has ever had any complaint about Odia film standards up until now, then please go and watch Karma. Your perception will change.

BTW this movie is Produced and Directed by Anupam Pattnaik, who earlier produced a 2023 National Award winning movie.

Just watched Karma movie!! Literally one if the Bloodiest movie in odia, I went to threater with low expectations because of now a days odia cinema is producing more flop movies,but this Karma went beyond my expectations, every frame is very important to this movie (very fast screen play) coming to performances the superstar anubhav mohanty rocked in Amar Pattnaik and rest of the cast did well and justified in their roles, music could have been better, DOP work is quite thrilling, coming to writer director Anupam patnaik he succeed in giving a direction can't wait for second part no piracy pls.

Coming from the makers of Gangs of Puri and Pratikhya, Karma is a brilliantly directed new age suspense thriller which has managed very well to captivate the audience and ensure everyone is glued to their seats till the end and still thinking about the twists even after the movie ends. All the characters have been beautifully placed in the amazing story. It's beautifully shot with the director having managed to extract the best out of each actor esp. Anubhav Mohanty.

Technically pretty sound be it BGM, colour grading, cinematography, scene selection, set designs, scene sequencing, etc. They too have put in massive efforts into the publicity and marketing of Karma which has reached the masses.

Director Anupam Patnaik largely has managed to justify the overacting of Anubhav (as many might feel) to the films strength through the character played by him. Very clever of him. All actors have acted well basis their respective characters and have managed to leave a lasting impression. The casting has been awesomely done.

As many might think of a specific character as the main antagonist, however the fantastic story of Karma sends the message loud and clear that each of them is in some way or the other the antagonist due to their deeds. Songs are great and are timed well as per the storyline. There is also a post credit scene which is a first for Odia cinema and a hint for a sequel.

Yes, there are many areas of improvement, and the Director surely knows all of them. But given the limitations of the Odia film industry, budgetary constraints, lack of high-end technical processes, tight timelines, etc, Karma has been made well. I am sure he shall review each of the areas of improvement when he goes back to the drawing board for the sequel and discusses each of those with his team. Hope he reviews and aims at providing answers to all questions which the audience shall have after watching Karma in the forthcoming sequel.

Anupam Patnaik is the best amongst the new age directors who has the capability to make amazing creative content which delivers well commercially as well. He has got the formula which is the need of the hour for revival of the struggling Odia Film Industry. He has managed to convert many movie buffs like me to come back to theatres to watch quality Odia films. Looking forward to the sequel.

A Masterpiece in odia cinema history. Highly recommended. Anupam and Anubhav a deadly combination. The level of suspense and thriller elements throughout the movie will keep you hooked and booked. The BGM was so good which adds a cherry on the cake. Each and every character of the movie was justified properly and director have utilized them extremely well. Apart from superstar Anubhav. Jayprakash Choudhary sir have stolen the show in the Interval and climax. Lead actres Suryamayee was also good in her role as well as new upcomers like Manmay and Sanoj. The second actress Divya plays a short role but that portion was not required. Watch and support odia cinema.
