I think this movie is just a soft conversion movie more than based on cooking. I don't know why they used Hindu Muslim concept in a cooking based movie which is ridiculous.
And quotes from Ramayana and other are just baseless. One of the scene in which nayantara started doing namaz instead of cooking. Thats the worst scene in this movie. I hope this review will be same as many. I have never reviewed any movie before but i can't stop myself after watching this one. And hopefully i wish that girls will watch kerala story and kashmir files instead of watching these kind of soft conversion movie.

The portrayal of Shree Ram and Sita consuming meat during vanvas may not align with ancient Hindu texts. Such deviations from established narratives can be viewed as misleading and potentially contribute to misinformation. It is crucial for creators to prioritize accuracy and sensitivity when depicting revered figures, rather than sensationalizing for commercial gains. This kind of misrepresentation can be considered disrespectful to the cultural and religious sentiments of the audience, and it is disappointing when creators prioritize sensationalism over authenticity Shame on creators for doing this.
Brace yourselves for a cinematic masterpiece! This riveting film unfolds with a plot so exhilaratingly dull, it makes watching paint dry feel like a roller coaster ride. The characters? Oh, they're practically dripping with charisma, said no one ever.
Prepare to be swept away by the gripping screenplay that's as engaging as a blank wall. The plot twists are so mind-bogglingly hilarious; you'll question if you accidentally stumbled into a comedy instead of a cinematic marvel. And those dialogues? Well, let's just say Shakespeare would be green with envy.
As for the direction, it's a true blast from the past, bringing you the cutting-edge techniques of yesteryear. Move over, modern cinema! Nayanthara graces the screen looking like she stepped straight out of an AI-generated dream - because who needs real emotions anyway? Her performance, oh, it's a masterclass in monotony; forget about bringing anything new to the character, she's practically on repeat.
But fear not, dear viewer, because the production values are at least decent - if you consider "decent" a compliment. The cinematography? Oh, it's so fine that even your grandma's old home videos could give it a run for its money.
And the music? Well, it's the kind of dullness that could lull a caffeinated hummingbird into a deep slumber.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly and with overflowing enthusiasm, don't recommend this film. It's an absolute must-not-see for anyone who values their time and sanity.

The Annaprna Movie is a nothing but a mockery on everything and misuse of the name what AnnaPurna stands for. It's nothing but an attack on anything remotely Hindu and glorification of preparing food sourced form violence on speechless souls - no medical, no environmental no economical justification at all - it s brutal attack on those who stand for non violence of all kinds - not sure what Ghandhi Foundations do or want now a days

I watched Annapoorani with high expectations, as I am a fan of Nayanthara and a lover of food. However, I was deeply disappointed and offended by the film, which I found to be a mockery of my culture and tradition. The film shows a Brahmin woman secretly reading recipes for non-vegetarian dishes, which are considered taboo by orthodox Brahmins. The film depicts a Muslim boy falling in love with a Brahmin girl, which is seen as a violation of their religious and social norms. The film mocks the Brahmin rituals and practices, such as wearing the sacred thread and chanting mantras. The film also has a predictable and cliched plot, with many convenient and unrealistic twists and turns. The film does not explore the culinary aspects of the story enough, and lacks the mouth-watering visuals of food that one would expect from a film about a chef. The film has some poor sensibility and logic-defying scenes, especially in the second half. I felt that the film was an insult to my beliefs and lifestyle, and I regret wasting my time and money on it. I would not recommend this film to anyone who respects their culture and tradition.
