    A Bloody Scary Blockbuster

    I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt congratulations on the remarkable success of movie *HIDIMBHA* . Seeing that vision come to life on the big screen and receiving such positive feedback from audiences and critics alike is truly a testament.

    The countless hours that spent meticulously planning every shot, carefully selecting the cast, and tirelessly editing and re-editing until every scene was just right. Have undoubtedly paid off, as the final product is nothing short of a masterpiece.

    Beyond the technical aspects of filmmaking, what resonates most with me is the emotional depth and thought-provoking messages woven throughout your movie. The Director had an innate ability to capture the complexities of human emotions and bring them to life on screen, allowing viewers to empathize with the characters and contemplate on deeper themes.

    Hidimbha (2023) - A Gripping Mix of History and Excitement

    "Hidimbha," directed by Aneel Kanneganti, is an interesting Telugu thriller that combines history with suspense. In the 2-hour-16-minute film, we follow the story of Abhay (Ashwin Babu) and Aadhya (Nandita Swetha), two investigators in Hyderabad, as they try to solve a series of kidnappings with a connection to India's past.

    Ashwin Babu plays Abhay, a character with a hidden history, and Nandita Swetha is convincing as Aadhya, a cop dealing with childhood trauma. The chemistry between the main characters adds emotion to the story.

    Supported by a talented cast, including Srinivasa Reddy, Vidyullekha Raman, and Makarand Deshpande, the film keeps the suspense high. Director Aneel Kanneganti skillfully blends thriller, action, and history.

    The cinematography by Raja Sekar looks great, and Vikas Badisa's music and Kalyan Chakravarthy's dialogues enhance the overall experience.

    As the investigation unfolds, the film surprises by linking the crimes to a tribal community with a dark past related to the 1857 revolt. This revelation adds depth to the story. The climax, where we learn about Abhay's connection to the criminal, is both shocking and emotional.

    While the film has a few predictable moments and loose ends, "Hidimbha" succeeds in offering a mix of history, crime, and personal drama. It provides a fresh take on historical events, making it a noteworthy addition to the thriller genre.

    In conclusion, "Hidimbha" is a recommended watch for thriller fans who enjoy a unique story that combines history with intense suspense. The engaging plot, strong performances, and visual appeal make it stand out in the genre.

    Action suspense thriller must watch for weekend

    Overall, Hidimbha presents itself as an action-packed thriller with some thrilling moments. The intriguing backdrop adds to its appeal, although it suffers from a lackluster narration in the first half. The movie gains momentum only during the pre-interval portions, and the second hour provides some engaging sequences. However, it falters in maintaining logical consistency at times, which significantly diminishes its overall impact. Moreover, the film's intense violence may not resonate well with all types of viewers. Consequently, Hidimbha ends up being a passable choice for your weekend movie watch.

    Hidimbha : A Cinematic Misfire- Not worthy to watch.

    The story started very well but eventually it gets worse and Acting wasn't that good.

    I wonder how this got this much imdb rating.

    If you are just entertainment lover and want to pass time without any expectation then you can watch it.

    The Finishing climax wasn't expected but what base was good.

    The direction could be better, acting could be better.

    In conclusion, "Unveiling Hidimbha's Legacy" possesses a strong foundation that, with improvements in direction, acting, and attention to detail, has the potential to be a captivating cinematic experience. By embracing the richness of its mythological roots and addressing technical and narrative shortcomings, the film can earn the acclaim it aspires to.
