      Watchable

      There is not even a single minute that the movie felt boring. It's all powerful acting and story.

      In the starting it raised a bar and kept on going above it. You don't see that typically in movies. Even Carry ok but few scenes felt boring but this is just crazy.

      Director and his friends did fantastic job, who so ever did their casting just nailed it.

      Shriya sharan looked different in the movie and even story was very different, and good acting.

      Sharman joshi carried the movie throughout but I really want to mention him a new face whose chemistry with shriya was amazing. They complimented each other.

      A Melodic Message with a Few Off-Key Notes

      "Music School" (2023) strikes a chord with its heartwarming message about the importance of nurturing a child's creativity and passion for the arts. While the film's narrative may not always hit the high notes, Shriya Saran's performance and the film's musical numbers create a harmonious and engaging experience.

      Shriya Saran delivers a captivating performance as Mary, a passionate music teacher who inspires her students to embrace their artistic talents. Her portrayal is both heartwarming and inspiring, showcasing the transformative power of music education.

      The film's musical numbers are a highlight, with beautifully choreographed sequences and soulful renditions of classic songs. The integration of music and dance into the narrative effectively conveys the film's message about the importance of artistic expression.

      However, the film's narrative occasionally falters, with some plot points feeling predictable and underdeveloped. The pacing can feel uneven at times, and the dialogue occasionally veers into preachiness.

      Despite its shortcomings, "Music School" is a heartwarming and entertaining film that celebrates the power of music and the importance of nurturing a child's creativity. Shriya Saran's performance and the film's musical numbers create a harmonious and engaging experience that will resonate with audiences of all ages.

      Entire movie was highly engaging.

      Paparao directorial venture is a poignantly written and superbly executed satire under the guise of a good screenplay. Situational dialogues and sharp dialogues are among the film's notable positives. It also helps that actors continues their string of excellent performances, Sharman joshi playing a character we couldn't imagine other actors do in early days. Backing up the lead performance are fantastic feats from the entire supporting cast. The entire movie was highly engaging.... All the characters were absolutely stunning.... Director brilliance amazing. BGM is superb and Expecting more movies from the team.

      Good One

      After watching this, I regret having it delayed so much. Papparao is a promising director and he has proven himself in his later movies. This I think is a turning point for him towards that.

      This movie is magical in its own way. Basically the cinematography is excellent.

      The chemistry between the characters is maintained perfectly through the night scenes and through the entire movie. There are times I felt that a certain scene could have made better to give the viewer a satisfying moment but that would be a totally different movie.

      Simply loved this just because of the visuals.

      I think this is really underrated and that could be because of the viewers expecting something different. Don't keep them high. Just enjoy it simply and stay with the flow.

      Fantastic

      I don't want to reveal much, but you need to watch this to make your own judgement. You're either gonna think there's a lot going on in the movie and dislike it, OR you're going be very pleasantly surprised with the message. You might have your own reservations on the HOW, but will welcome the WHAT that the movie is trying to convey.

      Overall, I think the story did try too hard to throw you off (and...it worked...?) but I guess I'll give it a pass. Surely worth a watch!

      All actors performed nicely, Sharman joshi, Shriya saran etc Bgm and comedies are one of the best. Movie is Fantastic. Must watch.
