Positives in the film:
1. As a book lover, I was happy by watching the trailer and the intro but later it was cringy and at times feel like it has no point.
2. Actors did the best they could. Suhas delivered the best and all the actors gave their best.
Negatives: 1. Very lagging and felt like leaving at many times. My hopes on the actors made me sit back and still hope but nothing delivered.
2. Unnecessary background score. It felt annoying at times. Music was not impressive.
3. Definitely not the breezy comedy or story u might be expecting.
One liner: would be good as a short film maybe.
Great team but had high expectations maybe that is why it disappointed.

I usually don't write movie reviews. This is actually my first here on IMDB, so you can imagine how much the movie impressed me.
Why did it impress me so much? For starters, this is a debut work, the director's first time; bringing his written story to life. Then you have the cast, while it is seasoned with veteran artists like Rohini and Ashish Vidyarthi, it is dominated by the new and young artists. All of them, all of them delivered exceptionally! This is what makes it so impressive. It is no common feat.
The story in itself has a way of engaging you, keeping you guessing till the end. But it is no thriller. It appears as if the story doesn't take itself seriously... till it does. This balance is spectacular!
The debutant director/writer thus takes you on this light-hearted journey and drops you off in the territory of powerful messages. I absolutely loved it! <3.

Padmabhushan working as an asst librarian for a meagre salary is also an aspiring writer. His first novel remains barely sold and earns him no fame. He is in an honest way, desperate to make people read his book and share their feedback, even negative one. He has supporting parents and a best friend who encourage him to follow his dream. One day, he is made famous as a writer for a book he never wrote. Initially he agrees to use this newfound fame for his own gain, to get married to the one he loves. Will this fake fame last longer enough till he actually writes a successful novel or does he truly realise what he wants?
The writing is again heartfelt, especially the climax and the performances too elevate it. The first act is filled with subtle gems where Padmabhushan feels proud when someone is reading his book or even the pride his father takes hearing praises about his son as a writer. The second act is a bit middling with more focus on the humor but the performances carry it through. The real highlight remain the final act and though the reveal is convenient, the emotions attached to it are far too strong.

Writer Padmabhushan is a family-friendly film with a relatable plot and engaging moments. While the message and drama are satisfying, they come too late to truly make an impact. Despite its occasional lack of logic, the film's heart is in the right place. Suhas and Rohini deliver outstanding performances, adding depth to the story's intricate details. To be more interesting and entertaining, the first half could have moved at a quicker pace. If you enjoy slice-of-life dramedies, give Writer Padmabhushan a shot, but keep your expectations in check. Be aware that the slow-paced beginning may bore some viewers.
