    Good Work - Different and Worthy

    Dhoota is a Webseries. I liked the direction and script of the series. Its well written and executed.

    The plot is nice. It moves in a good flow in the timeline and the attempt to keep the thrill is great. Some acting is offcourse overwhelming because of the usual work done in Telugu movies but it is still very well executed.

    There are some goofs here an there but thats ok, the overall part is well done.

    I liked the way Dhoota has taken the web thriller series of Telugu cinema to a next level. There are some shots which are an exaggeration of violence which gave the final destination vibe.

    Overall a worth watch and I would recommend to viewers to watch it.

    Well Made Supernatural Thriller

    13B, directed by Vikram K Kumar, was a critically praised thriller. He proceeded on a similar path with his first-ever web series, Dhoota, which stars Naga Chaitanya in the lead role. The Protagonist, a journalist, experiences unanticipated catastrophes in his life and learns about them through newspaper clippings. The series follows the protagonist's life as he faces hardships and attempts to alter the course of events. The series gets off to an exciting start, and the investigation part afterward also dealt very well. The backstory was a bit predictable and acted as a minus point. Except for this part and a few dull moments, Dhoota works as a satisfactory watch. Naga Chaitanya was decent in a new role, and Parvathy Thiruvothu made an impressive debut in Telugu. Prachi Desai, Priya Bhavani Shankar, Tharun Bhascker, and others were appropriate.

    The finest Writings and excellent screenplay

    Actors gave their best performances but all credit goes to Vikram did the same thing 'blockbuster' and edge of the seat thriller and not to be watched with kids.

    Coming to actors Naga Chaitanya gave his best and telugu audience will love the performances of Parvathi (Malayalam Heroine) Prachi and Priya have done their roles perfectly. Every artist is properly utilised.

    Spoiler alert Enjoy the 6 th episode like hell Positives Screenplay Writing Music Actors at best Cinematography Production values Negatives It would have been 30 min less but this wouldn't be an issue if you like explaining the plot clearly Overall The best Telugu straight ott till date.

    Above Average

    I wanted to watch this one because of Parvathy. She usually picks up good scripts. I however felt this was her weakest role. Naga Chaitanya was good but could have been better as the main protagonist. Telugu movies/series can do with less digression to the back stories and focus more the plot on hand.

    The series was above average. I feel it could have been better. The story was good. The execution should have been much better. With Parvathy I was assured that the story would not be chauvinistic like most Telugu movies.

    The end was a little hurried and could have been a little better then it actually was.
