Diljit Dosanjh's Sutlej directed by Honey Trehan which went for a direct streaming on Zee 5 platform was removed from it without any notice shocking the makers.The film is based on the life of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra. What surprised all is the film got streaming on Zee 5 without any censor. In the midst of all this, Ram Gopal Varma who is known for his free and frank talk came up with the following post.Just saw SATLUJ and it is not a film , but a deep wound that will never heal. It stirs up the sludge in one of the darkest chapters of our history This is cinema used as confrontation , where @diljitdosanjh acts with a quiet fury with no chest thumping heroism.. His only weapons are a ledger and a conscience. @rampalarjun adds layers of moral rot in the institutional complicity that feels chillingly realistic Director @honeytrehan instead of sensationalising the horror unfolds the film like a slow burn investigative thriller through bureaucratic files, cremation records, and hushed conversations This restraint makes the brutality of the subject matter hit that much harder because it explodes &nbsp;with the force of truth and not exploitation.The philosophical core of the film about how a democracy devours its own citizens and then tries to erase the evidence is explored without any preachiness and that’s no normal achievement .The various issues surrounding its exhibition and publication prove that any art which makes the powerful uncomfortable has done its job, and that is the true purpose of true art , which SATLUJ &nbsp;is .It is highly courageous essential filmmaking because it unsettles, educates, and lingers . In the times where main stream chases spectacle and popcorn cinema , SUTLEJ shoots out a hard reminder of what cinematic medium can truly achieve when it takes on truth and honestySATLUJ &nbsp;is a film that has to be seen , shown, discussed, debated and not ENCOUNTERED like the victims in the film My appeal to all the powers is , please don’t do to SATLUJ what has been done to JASWANT SINGH KALRATRUTH HITS HARDER when one tries to HIDE IT . &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;— AYN RAND---- Pramod Nandivada

Rao Bahadur 's OTT rights have been bagged by Netflix and streaming will be after the completion of its theatrical run. The film is releasing on 3 July and let us see how Rao Bahadur entertained move lovers.Rao Bahadur (2026) Movie: Story ReviewRao Bahadur story revolves around a person from the royal lineage suffering from a rare disorder. The developments in the psychological patient and how he navigates them form the plot.Bhuvanam Ramappa Rao ( Satyadev) suffers from a rare psychological disorder and starts behaving weirdly. Where this leads to, what is the reason behind his disorder and weird behavior and how &nbsp;his wife Renuka ( Deepa Thomas), his friend Dr.Achari(Vikas Muppala), Achchamma(Balakrishna Parasar), A. Jagannadhan IPS (Anand) and others form rest of the developments.Rao Bahadur (2026) Movie: Artists ReviewSatyadev put in lot of effort for his role. He is seen in different outfits, mannerisms and transformed his body language accordingly as per the timeline in the narration. He modulated his dialogue delivery according to the situation and impressed with his dialogue delivery. He showed good expressions and emotions according to the situation. This is best performance in all his films till now and even the nay Sayers will concur.Deepa Thomas who played the female lead did justice to it. She got limited screen presence but came up with energetic performance. She got good dialogues and looked bubbly and lively on screen. She expressed with her eyes only to mesmerize all.Vikas Muppala is good in the role of the protagonist's friend. He looked natural and realistic with his performance driving the story forward. He made an impression with his dialogues and natural performance.Bala Parasar is good in the role of the maid. She entertained all not only with her dialogue delivery but also with her humour.Others like Anand Bharathi, Pranay Vaka, Kunal Kaushik, Master Kiran performed according to their roles.Rao Bahadur (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewRao Bahadur story is opened by Venkat Maha. Venkat Maha tried to thrill people with a different kind of psychological thriller. He starts the narration on an interesting note and Satyadev's introduction and the follow-up scenes increases curiosity levels.However from then on the pace of the narration tests the patience of the movie lovers. There are many scenes and viewers will be left wondering what's going on and where the story is heading and when the first half ends, it comes as a breather for the people.The narration and pace picks up a little bit in the second half though the story progresses no where. The climax twist comes as a relief. Even after the twist, the proceedings are dragged before the film ends making viewers heave a sigh of relief.Smaran Sai's music offered nothing much to rave about. The tunes are not catchy and are not even shot on an appealing manner. However, he made up for it, with his captivating background score. It elevated the mood of the story and proceedings.The cinematography of Karthik Parmar used the colour combinations, grading and camera angles to show the period backdrop in a natural and realistic way.Venkat Maha who handled the editing failed in this aspect. He left many unnecessary scenes unattended and this slowed the pace of the film drastically in the first half testing the patience of all. Dialogues are just ok. Production values are good.Rao Bahadur Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e89f9bccf5ae0f998e260186ab7d6fd60">Satyadev</li><li data-list-item-id="e322931614dda05d784b4fbb74121d7f5">Different Concept</li><li data-list-item-id="e63a40f8b4b0f16133d33fc7835eef2c1">BGM, Cinematography</li><li data-list-item-id="e67e3a2d0153e06c3e6c7038c57016bb7">Good Production values</li></ul>Rao Bahadur Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e955e04c11cec9e5b6c9e8ea0c3f7fec6">Slow Pace</li><li data-list-item-id="e657e6604870655ad79ea2e8130ef569d">Screenplay</li><li data-list-item-id="e1d6f85d1109b9b85e95dac4694418f43">Writing</li></ul>Rao Bahadur (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Rao Bahadur turns out to be patient testing psychological thriller. Satyadev showed faith in Venkat Maha's direction and gave it all for the role. Venkat Maha seems to have penned the story after deciding to the climax twist. This impacted the overall output to a point of no return.The idea turned out to be interesting but he failed with his story. The writing turned out to be weak, screenplay didn't come with anything special and there is much to talk about the direction which is directionless. A little &nbsp;reworking on the script by adding strong emotions, witty one-liners, doing away with preachy elements and having more racy screenplay would have changed the result. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2.25 rating for Rao Bahadur. &nbsp;

Nagabandham The Secret Treasure (2026) Movie: What's BehindVirat Karrna's Nagabandham The Secret Treasure directed by Abhishek Nama has been promoted in the most extravagant manner. The film's grand VFX and CGI increased the curiosity levels among movie lovers. Nagabandham OTT rights have been bagged by Amazon Prime and the streaming will be after the completion of its theatrical run. The film released on 3 July 2026 and let us find out how Nagabandham captivated movie lovers.Nagabandham (2026) Movie: Story ReviewNagabandham story revolves around people with evil intentions going all out to possess the all powerful Brahma Kamalam and creating bloodbath in the process and how the right thinking people try to protect Brahma Kamalam and their rich traditions.Rudra (Virat Karrna) leads a peaceful life in his village but everything changes on the day of his sister Manasa (Sonia Singh) marriage. What happened during his sister's marriage and how it is connected to the archeological guru (Prabhakar), Abdali (Rishab Sahwney) what roles Parvathi (Nabha Natesh), Manasa (Iswarya Menon), Bairagi(Garuda Ram), priest Achyutha (Murali Sharma) played, how it is connected to Shiva (Virat Karnna), and Brahma Kamalam form the interesting part in the narration.Nagabandham (2026) Movie: Artists ReviewVirat Karrna performed well in both roles, Rudra and Shiva. He showed innocence, love for his family as Rudra and fury as Shiva. His screen presence is good and he enacted stunts with ease. Rishab Sawhney is menacing with his look as Abdali and also as the Muslim emperor. He impressed with his mannerisms.Nabha Natesh is good in the role of a traditional girl. She also oozed with glamor in a song. Jagapathi Babu performed the role tailor made for him perfectly. Sonia Singh, popular youtuber performed well in the sister's role. Anasuya is ok in the role of aunt. Iswarya Menon is ok in her role. Murali Sharma made his presence felt as a priest.There are many actors like Daksha Nagarkar, Mahesh Manjrekar, Ankit Koyya,John Vijay and others did their job according to their roles. Nagabandham (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewNagabandham-The Secret Treasure story is penned by Abhishek Nama. The story offered nothing new as many films came in the recent past highlighting the power of God and how ultimately he eliminates the evil forces who try to wreak havoc to posses the supreme powers.Films like Mirai and Hanuman turned out to be hits and of late many filmmakers are trying to milk people's interest in Sanatana Dharma and the secrets with dialogues pertaining to them but most of them are failing in their mission. If mythological and elements on God in a story comes naturally then it will connect chords with the people. However, all the so called Sanatana elements are forced and this ends up testing the patience of the viewers.Nagabandham also fell in the second category unfortunately. There is no clarity how the hero became the protector of the all powerful Brahma Kamalam right from the first half. The film lacked the drive and direction and it drifted in various directions and the screenplay turned out to be topsy turvy. Emotions play a key role in the films and the film lacked them completely. Only when emotions are strong and realistic, natural, it will help in taking forward the drama or action sequences.With emotions missing , the scenes come and go one after another and viewers are left wondering what was happening. The extreme violence in the marriage looked totally unnecessary and unwanted except for the gory scenes which the director felt would have made an impact on the viewers emotionally.Though the first half had no story, visuals are extravagant and the interval bang covered all the loopholes setting the stage for the second half. However the second half turned out to be extremely slow and all the characters turned unnecessarily loud shouting at the top of their voices. Director included family scenes revolving around children but none of them created an impact. The flashback episode lacked clarity and it is also filled with mindless violence.The climax action episode itself came to more than 30 minutes and the story revolved around it but none of them connected chords with the viewers. Everything goes with loud shouts and intense and senseless action. On top of it, they gave immense torture with irrelevant dialogues on Sanatana Dharma.The background score tuned by Junaid Kumar elevated the scenes to the next level creating the maximum impact. However, at times it turned loud and routine. The cinematography of Soundar Rajan S is top class. The VFX and CGI are of top class most of the time, except in few scenes where they looked pale and substandard.Junaid Kumar - Abhe's songs acted as speed breaks to the narration. Except for the Namo song, others failed to impress and some songs came with in 2-3 minutes gap. Editing left a lot to be desired, especially in the second half. Dialogues are just ok and production values are grand.Nagabandham Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="eb594ad9e18a42338b69b01eb1eee6864">Visuals</li><li data-list-item-id="e994ee9df25be8da1cfade0f49ab27cec">First Half</li><li data-list-item-id="e03c19a6434f469d2b00550495feb463d">BGM</li><li data-list-item-id="e53ac52f471f627ae2ae87dc2ff31adce">Some engaging episodes</li></ul>Nagabandham Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e6eaf2810d307659ae2e849ec6b6267a6">Missing Emotions</li><li data-list-item-id="edbe53ecdbf341a82efb00f11137c4966">Lack of Novel Story, Screenplay</li><li data-list-item-id="e26ed5b5acf569fcb4c720e74a5911376">Dragging climax</li></ul>Nagabandham (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether Nagabandham The Secret Treasure offers visual treat minus story feast. Director Abhishek Nama depended only on extravagant visuals and over the top dialogues on Sanatana Dharma and action sequences surrounding them but failed to come with strong story. He failed completely with his screenplay and direction. His script turned out to be senseless and he should have reworked on it completely. Everything turned senseless and mindless in the name of Sanatana Dharma. He and other filmmakers should realize that loud dialogues on Sanatana Dharma and Hinduism will not give them guaranteed blockbuster at the box office. It should be backed with strong content which is missing in Nagabandham. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with 2.25 rating for Nagabandham. &nbsp;

She lived in the role, coming up with intense expressions and powerful screen presence. She showed variations in her role quite well, looking realistic in her Transformation.Samuthirakhani is known for good performances but this time he looked a complete misfit in the role of a routine political leader. His dialogue delivery turned out to be a big minus.Naresh Agasthya performed well but he looked subdued bringing down the intensity. Sudhakar Komakula impresses but his character is under developed. Raja Chembolu is good. Sunil's role is just ok.Talented actors like Rohini, Mime Gopi, Ravi Varma, Rajeev Kanakala, and Benarjee nothing to rave about. Others performed scoring to their roles.Isakapatnam (2026) Web Series: Technicians ReviewIsakapatnam story is penned by Prashanth Ragathi and it is directed by BH. Garry. The story is simple and predictable with couple of interesting twists. Many such stories came where daughter takes on her politically powerful father. One is reminded of films like Chhatrapati and webseries Parampara.He tried to be realistic ,showing the happenings in the steel plant but the entire political tussle and battle on the family turns out to be predictable. The narration despite all this is made interesting with few twists and turns unraveling them at the right time in all the episodes.Though it raises curiosity among viewers, the missing emotional connectivity disappoints all.The music of Praveen Lakkaraju is in sync with the story and Narration. As the story itself offers nothing new, it seems he didn't try hard to create something out of the box.Vamsi Patchipulusu with his &nbsp;cinematography added value to the narration. He showed the happenings in the fictious town interestingly using the camera angle and colour grading.But one gets a feeling that both the music and cinematography followed the known generic and standard pattern.The editing of BH. Garry is good. He ensured that the narration is racy and pace doesn't dip drastically. Couple of dialogues of Taijuddin are good and thought provoking.Production values are decent.Isakapatnam Web Series: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="ef770023c38cf4dcffab2411cfa496e04">Aishwarya Rajesh</li><li data-list-item-id="e201bd14058e642e08a4863657b1fec39">Interesting Twists</li><li data-list-item-id="e7a564f8c042003def4f4b3f67f681e4a">Couple of Performances</li></ul>Isakapatnam Web Series: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e6eea4cc01eacab675a05aaf2ba82a9b3">Missing Emotions</li><li data-list-item-id="e72be34588c2bc7d39c9367738c1cb925">Predictable Plot</li></ul>Isakapatnam (2026) Web Series: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Isakapatnam turns out to be a decent political thriller. Director BH.Garry did a decent job to the story that is highly routine except for few twists. Little fine tuning of the script, exciting screenplay, &nbsp;having strong emotions, powerful characterizations and suitable cast could have added more bite. The character arcs could have been more intense and inclusion of free more thrilling elements would have taken the series to another level. Action choreography could have been more intense. Considering all these elements Cinejosh goes with a 2.75 rating for Isakapatnam. &nbsp;

Dridam (2026) Movie: What's BehindMalayalam movies are captivating movie lovers across the country and now a thriller named Dridam &nbsp;released in theatres last month and did well at the box office. The film is now streaming on Jio+Hotstar and let us see what the film offered to movie lovers.Dridam (2026) Movie: Story ReviewDridam story revolves around a police officer and how his life changes when he discovers human remains. Vijay (Shane Nigam) lands in Kuzhinilam town after getting appointed as the &nbsp;sub-inspector. Everything goes well with him, including his subordinates who are genial and develops a liking for him and the town is also free of crimes.However everything turns drastically with the discovery of the dead body and crimes increases one by one challenging his investigative skills. Where this leads to and what role &nbsp;CPO Vidya Jayachandran (Saniya Fatima), &nbsp;ASI Krishnan Kurup (Shobi Thilakan), &nbsp;CPO Remya Surendran(Krishna Praba), &nbsp;CPO Sathyan(Dinesh Prabhakar), Manoj (Abhiram Radhakrishnan) and SCPO Balan Nair (Kottayam Ramesh) form the interesting part.Dridam (2026) Movie: Artists ReviewShane Nigam is good in the role of a cop. He showed good expressions and emotions as a new and inexperienced SI but at times he looked inconsistent as his body language is stiff. He looked convincing when it comes to show his confusion and anger.Others like Shobi Thilakan, Kottayam Ramesh, Dinesh Prabhakar, Nandan Unni, Vinod Bose, Krishna Prabha, Saniya Fathima, Mathew Varghese, Abhiram Radhakrishnan, Prashanth Murali, Bitto Davis, Joji K. John and Abhishek Raveendran performed according to their roles.However most of their characters are underdeveloped and under written and offered nothing new to the story.Dridam (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewDridam story is penned by Jomon John and Linto Devasia and is directed by Martin Joseph. He tried to thrill viewers movie lovers with invetigative drama and it seems he drew inspiration from the films like Drishyam etc. He started the narration in an interesting manner and didnot devaite from the main plot and manages to surprise all with a climax twist.However, as he drew inspiration from Jeethu Joseph's films, much to the shock of all, he included the same flaws and this impacted the film. He showed the transformation of the cop from a rookie to an efficient one in an able way. However the director failed with his lazy manner of story telling. There are many scenes that looked artificial and staged and looked awkward on the screen.He spent most of the time, showing the admiration of the subordinates to the protagonist and all these looked unnecessary and irrelevant. At times, the scenes and the screenplay looked clumsy and convenient insulting the intelligence of the viewers. There are also many illogical scenes and this impacted the final output. The director failed to execute the decent story with the screenplay and direction.The behavior of the protagonist in various scenes looked silly and this impacted the basic investigation and the whole idea. Some of the so called scenes and the scenes looked absurd and even kids would laugh it out loudly.The cinematography of PM. Unnikrishnan showed the scenes in a natural and realistic manner showing the village atmosphere in a serene and calm way. The background score of Sreerag Saji elevated the scenes and managed to keep the viewers glued to the screen with the twists and turns. The editing of VS. Vinayak could have been better as there are many scenes that slowed the pace of the narration. Dialogues are ok and production values are good.Dridam Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e410418a17f0e1841e24b25c86c98ead1">Climax Twist</li><li data-list-item-id="e987c73815e6d58ebdd8bec9433c4115c">Cinematography</li><li data-list-item-id="e789bea59783cde88be7866b6487ca7ce">BGM</li></ul>Dridam Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e7a1dab478b8dfe23508637c97d08cb21">Slow Pace</li><li data-list-item-id="ee4653122438d168cf57adb5cdf37e164">Sub Plots</li><li data-list-item-id="ee871dab49c3fc76114600f72e08d0554">First Half</li></ul>Dridam (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Dridam turns out to be a botched up thriller. Director Martin Joseph came up with a thriller that looked like a slow poison and unlike other investigative thrillers where a twist comes during the interval bang, the twist appears only during the climax. Till then the director passes time with unnecessary scenes and the slow pace in the screenplay and narration tested the patience of the viewers. Only the cinematography saved the film from sinking further. Except for the final 30 minutes, everything goes for the toss in Dridam. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2.5 rating for Dridam.&nbsp;

The interval block, climax and few more scenes and the twists involved in it turns out to be the highlight and writers should be commended for their innovation.However, though the movie runs at a steady pace, the extremely slow narration ends up testing the patience of the viewers. Many of the simple scenes are repeated and dragged unnecessarily. Dialogues are natural and realistic. Sushin Shyam's music is impactful and he elevated the scenes with his background music.

Director Chidambaram came up with simple idea but he turned it into an interesting story and aided by Jithu Mahendran's gripping screenplay, he managed to surprise viewers. He is ably supported by the performances of Adisheshan and Farzana Palathingal &nbsp;and the technical crew to create the maximum impact.

He is ok with his performance. There is nothing new and he looked raw and rustic in his expressions. He delivered dialogues accordingly.Rashi Singh got limited screen presence in her role. Shilpa Tulaskar is artificial as the antagonist despite the elevation to her character.

Right from the start till the finish the narration, screenplay turns out to be uni dimensional. His thought process remained outdated and out of sync with the current generation. He still followed the same hero elevations, three songs, six fights, item song and cheap comedy scenes.With in five minutes into the story, viewers will be treated the same monotonous scenes that test their patience to the core. It increases with the passage of time and reaches its peak in the second half. The interval comes as a break from this torture. The story lacks basic emotions and everything looks artificial.Everyone passes through the motions and the director's cheap taste is revealed when he showed the rape scene in detail even though it was shown initially. There are many such scenes and that include the CM candidate directing her aides to molest her to gain sympathy. Finally viewers heave a sigh of relief when the film comes to an end.Vijay Mukthavarapu's didn't get much scope to showcase his talent. This is because the story offered nothing new and as the scenes assume monotonous flavour, had Vijay applied his editing scissors, there wouldn't have been any film.The cinematography of Karthik Sujatha Saikumar is ok and the background score by Kalyan Nayak followed the predictable template. The romantic song tuned looked that of the 80s flavour. Dialogues are average and production values are ok.Transfer Trimurthulu Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="ef9fe3597178457bd9dfe52ffe513cc3a">Nothing</li></ul>Transfer Trimurthulu Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e66bbbbcf257f0c4464dbcf2dca481cfd">Everything</li></ul>Transfer Trimurthulu (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Tranfer Trimurthulu turns out to be an outdated entertainer. Vadde Naveen on comeback performed as per the story. Director Kamal Teja Narla failed completely as a director with his story that turned out to be atrocious, screenplay turned ridiculous and script turned senseless. No amount of rework should have changed the output. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating for Transfer Trimurthulu.&nbsp; &nbsp;

She delivered dialogues in Telangana accent with ease and showed innocent filled expressions before revealing her other side. She is realistic in her expressions and emotions and enacted high octane stunts with much ado.Diganth is ok in the role of her husband. Chaitanya Krishna is good as the cop. Gulshan Devaiah passed through the motions as the antagonist. Gautami is good, but she has limited screen presence. Manjusha Mukkavali is impressive in the role of Samantha's friend. Others like Sreemukhi, Srinivas Gavi Reddy, Lakshmi, Anand performed according to their roles.Maa Inti Bangaaram (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewMaa Inti Bangaaram story is penned by Raj, and it is directed by Nandini Reddy. The narration starts in a predictable and simple manner, introducing various characters and the ordeal of a newlywed girl at her in-laws' house. The proceedings though offer nothing new and manage to entertain viewers with hilarious scenes before the action blocks emerge.Though Samantha performed well in the action blocks, the scenes fell flat due to a lack of intensity. The runup to the interval block that includes the flashback turns out to be the biggest drawback. With the passage of time, the first half turns underwhelming as emotions fail to connect with Samantha's current and past happenings.From then on, the second half revolves around how the protagonist achieves success overcome all the obstacles. The complete second half turns out to be predictable and lacks the real twists and turns. None of the scenes excites, and even the actors seem to have passed through the motions.The so-called twist, similar to a hit film, didn't offer anything new. But few scenes enthrall viewers, turning the film into a decent one.Santosh Narayanan's music is attractive. He used Muthyala Muggu song in an entertaining way. His background score is not loud and it however elevated the scenes in an impactful manner. Om Prakash's Cinematography is good and showed the scenes in an effective way. The editing is ok but could have been more crispy. Dialogues are good and at times hilarious. Action sequences could have been more effective. Production values are good.Maa Inti Bangaaram Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="eb555ab9500326419417989e10a6efe29">Samantha</li><li data-list-item-id="e192e0dc64f82a734541e48fb7b324100">Soulful BGM</li><li data-list-item-id="e0d576520dd57f949760932447545d2cc">Few Entertaining Elements</li></ul>Maa Inti Bangaaram Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e2307004ebafbeda9be4b82aa0cccb2b7">Predictable Plot</li><li data-list-item-id="e3cd61f7c936acf3e3aa4941dc71e0fa2">Antagonist</li></ul>Maa Inti Bangaaram (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Maa Inti Bangaram turns out to be normal female action entertainer. Samantha worked hard for the role and even performed intense action sequences. However, the story turned out to be monotonous with the only change being the female protagonist instead of a male. Nandini Reddy's screenplay is just ok. The script had few entertaining and hilarious elements but the film failed to elevate the scenes with emotions and thrilling elements. Little fine-tuning of the script adding intense and exciting things could have added more punch to the final output. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2.75 rating for Maa Inti Bangaaram.

She elevated the scenes with her screen presence. She got powerful dialogues and delivered it in a powerful and impactful manner. She showed the love and care towards her sons and also her concern to give good life for them. At the same time, she expressed the feelings of a widowed woman and the trauma she faces living alone and how the society and men view her.Ajay Dhishan got meaty role and did justice to it.

Sasi, came with a story drawing inspiration from real life incidents. He did not waste anytime and stuck to the main point. Many films with such plot came in various languages, but Sasi is supported by the powerful performance of Swasika Vijay and the screen presence of Vijay Antony.The entire first half showed the struggles of the widowed woman, her quest to give better life for her sons and at times one gets a feeling that it was overdone and the story is going nowhere as the screenplay turns repetitive. The second half starts in the similar manner and just when viewers are left to wonder, where the film is heading, the introduction of Vijay Antony turned out tobe the added advantage.He with his screen presence took the film to another level. The screenplay also turned racy and after the predictable pre climax, the climax turned out to be different. Sasi tried to send message to the society about the plight of the widowed women and how the society and especially in the villages view them and what sufferings they undergo silently. He should be commended for selecting a topic and highlighted the problem but he could have been little more creative in narrating them.S. B. Darshan Kirlosh with his cinematography showed the rustic village atmosphere in a captivating manner giving a natural and realistic feel. Balaji Sriram came up with emotional song which is situational while the background music is in sync with the storyline. The background score takes viewers into the story. Editing of Harish Yuvaraj turned out to be a mixed bag. At times it is crispy while most of the times, he left many repetitive scenes unattended. Dialogues are natural and hard-hitting and thought provoking. Production values are good.Vanda Devullu Movie: Advantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="eaeb47b73bf4925de28e36a238e66705c">Swasika Vijay's performance</li><li data-list-item-id="e0658f8c42e7306e5bb2b38203701ddf7">Vijay Antony's screen presence</li><li data-list-item-id="ed8af5cde9707a4255e1b4867a83a1ca5">Hardhitting Dialogues</li></ul>Vanda Devullu Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li data-list-item-id="e7f0abab61c33af2aaf23dfa228d694c7">Predictable Story</li><li data-list-item-id="e0df19e4311aa217384419367695209af">Repetitive Scenes</li></ul>Vanda Devullu (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Vanda Devullu turns out to be a predicable but decent entertainer. Sasi tried to give a powerful message to the society and he is supported by the stellar performance from Swasika Vijay and the screen presence of Vijay Antony. However predictable plot, slow pace and repetitive scenes in the first half, impacted the film's output. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 2.5 rating for Vanda Devullu.
