Devaki

First thing I hate the most about this movie is the horrible song made for the kidnappers glorifying their criminal character and it keeps repeating. Poor direction on the cop's role in second half. The overall plot of the movie is good but it has many annoying and sometimes overly predictable unnecessary twists. I'm definitely recommending not to watch this movie.

What a start to Aishwarya upendra . Devaki daughter & mother emotion will be remembered for years. Congratulations to the director lohith.

After his successful directorial horror thriller 'Mummy' which was released in 2016, Director Lohith is back with another impressive thriller film.

The story of the film is about a resilient mother who sets out on a quest to find her missing daughter. The film is based on a real life story and mainly explores the dark side of the city of Joy - Kolkata. There are some rather horrifying sequences where the rampant child trafficking and sexual exploitation of girls is shown.

The film has an engaging screenplay and keeps you hooked throughout. The film also has a subtle tone, with some really good cinematography, especially the dark red streets of Kolkata are captured brilliantly through the camera lens. Also the background score is impressive and gives the necessary thrills perfectly.

The climax of the movie could have been better. The other thing which is disappointing is the mismatch in the lip syncing of dialogues. This is quite evident at many places in the movie and partially hampers the viewing experience. Also since the story is based in Kolkata, the audience will have to refer the subtitles to understand the Bengali & Hindi dialogues.

Priyanka Upendra has given her best performance as a resilient & strong willed mother and her display of emotions is really good. Kishore Kumar stands out as a skilful & able cop. Aishwarya Upendra is cute but her acting skills could have been better.

Overall this film is gripping enough and makes for a good worthy watch for all the thriller movie enthusiasts.

A tribute mother. Fully suspence movie. One must watch. All the struggle she goes through despite of her weakness. Hats off to all the mothers

I was reluctant to watch this initially but turned out to be an amazing movie . There are very few Kannada movies where a lead is female and this stands out among those . If you are not the one who like female leads then do not try to watch this movie . The movie has enough emotions and suspense to keep you engaged .
