&nbsp;Suriya’s latest film Scene is continuing its impressive box office run, setting new career records within its first week. After registering the biggest opening day and opening weekend of his career, the film is now heading towards another milestone. In just six days, Scene has emerged as Suriya’s biggest first week grosser.The film opened with around ₹40 crore worldwide on its first day. It went on to collect ₹125 crore during its opening weekend. Interestingly, Scene has achieved these numbers despite being made on a considerably smaller budget than some of Suriya’s bigger projects and relatively limited release compared to his previous outings due to competition from Ramayana in other states and Mookuthi Amman 2 in home state Tamil Nadu.Scene has maintained its momentum even after the opening weekend. The film collected around ₹35 crore gross worldwide on Monday, followed by ₹20+ crore on Tuesday. This took its worldwide total to ₹180 crore, bringing it close to Karuppu’s reported first week collection of ₹185 crore.On its sixth day, Scene is expected to cross the ₹185 crore mark and become Suriya’s biggest first week grosser. The next target is the ₹200 crore worldwide milestone, which could put the film closer to its reported break even requirement of over ₹200 crore gross. If the current box office trend continues, Scene could finish its opening week with a strong total and put itself in a favourable position for the coming days.- Veda&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp; A video going viral on social media has put actress Sreeleela in the spotlight for the wrong reasons. Several users have mistaken a woman appearing in a revealing outfit for the actress, leading to widespread discussions online. However, the viral footage is reportedly a deepfake video and does not actually feature Sreeleela.The original video features actress and model Rose Sardana, who has appeared in films such as Drishyam 2 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. The footage reportedly dates back to August 2026, when she attended the birthday celebration of television actor and Bigg Boss 17 runner up Abhishek Kumar. The original clip has no connection with Sreeleela.The video is believed to have been digitally manipulated using AI face swapping technology. This technique allows someone’s face to be replaced with another person's face in an existing video, making the edited footage appear genuine. In this case, Sreeleela’s facial identity was allegedly superimposed on Rose Sardana’s original footage before being circulated on social media.This incident once again highlights the growing misuse of artificial intelligence to create misleading content involving female celebrities. Actress Rashmika Mandanna faced a similar deepfake controversy in 2023 when a video falsely showed her in a black outfit.

Nayanthara’s Mookuthi Amman 2, Mahasakthi in Telugu and other languages has witnessed a slight improvement in box office collections during the Diwali holidays. However, the growth has not been strong enough to make a difference. The devotional drama has collected approximately ₹20 crore gross worldwide in its first four days.Made on a reported budget of over ₹100 crore, Mookuthi Amman 2 is among the most expensive female led films in Tamil cinema. The makers had high expectations, considering Nayanthara’s popularity, the devotional subject and the festive release window. However, the film failed to create the expected excitement among audiences before its theatrical release.The film had a disappointing start, with its all India advance bookings reportedly collecting only around ₹1 crore. Although collections have gradually improved in Tamil Nadu during the Diwali holidays, the overall numbers remain underwhelming. The film has struggled to attract audiences in other Indian markets and overseas territories as well.Mookuthi Amman 2 has reportedly collected around ₹15+ crore gross in Tamil Nadu, while the rest of India and overseas markets have contributed approximately ₹4 - 5 crore. Strong competition from Suriya’s Scene and Ramayana has further affected its theatrical run.

&nbsp;&nbsp; Ramayana Part 1 dialogues attracting backlash. Ranbir Kapoor-Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Part 1 is creating a collections tsunami at the box office across the world. While the film is hailed for the extravagant visuals and top class CG work, it is attracting backlash over the dialogues and the content. Many already felt that the film lacked the emotional connect.Ramayana is now just a story for Indians but it is an epic which is revered by all the Hindus across the world. So directors has a huge responsibility while making and showing the same on the screen. While making the film based on Valmiki Ramayana, one should be extremely cautious regarding the main incidents, behavior of the various characters and their conversaations.In Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Part1 the same went missing. As the film was made on a large canvas and had top star cast and extravagant visuals, expectations soared on the film. Those who watched the film expressed their unhappiness by the way the makers made some changes in the story.From the beginning there has been huge opposition to the Seetha shown as the warrior. Many felt that such scene was not there in Valmiki Ramayana. People are questioning why the makers should make such change to make the story interesting.Similarly, Lakshman always speaks with Seetha looking at her feet. However in the film, Lakshman is seen delivering powerful dialogues. Even the dialogues involving Rama and Seetha also crossed the limits. They felt that the makers didnot show Rama as per the narration of Valmiki. Many are surprised with Seetha addressing Rama as 'Rama'.The abduction of Seetha by Ravana is not shown in a proper manner at all. There is nothing wrong in making few changes for the film but people are of the opinion that the makers should give importance to Valmiki Ramayana. Many of those who revere Rama are of the opinion that it is better the filmmakers donot make films on Ramayana rather than make changes according to their whims and fancies. If they make Ramayana, they should make it as it is without any creative liberties.- Nirvighn Nandivada

Addressing to the huge turnout, Pawan Kalyan has an intense criticism on minister Narayana. "He may be a minister Narayana for his Narayana. But he is an ordinary Narayana for me. He tired to stop to visit Nellore during 'Rottela Panduga'. Nellore is my mother's hometown. My loyalists are there in every nook and corner such as Phathekhan Peta, Moolapeta etc. You would teach tuition to students. How could your establish too many colleges? You better teach, tuition to Lokesh," Pawan Kalyan quipped.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, Pawan Kalyan also posed satires on TDP and YSRCP's symbols. "TDP's cycle has no tubes. The chain was broken and nobody is riding the cycle now. Fan has no power so it can't rotate. I have that power now," Pawan Kalyan said.

Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: What's BehindNayanthara's Mookuthi Amman 2 is releasing on November 6, 2026 in Telugu as Mahasakthi.The film is generating interest as it is the sequel to the hit film Mookuthi Amman. Let us find out what impact the film created on movie lovers.Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Story ReviewMahasakthi story revolves around the fight between Godly and Evil forces and the secret behind the sacrifice of a Queen. Police Officer Shakti (Nayanthara), experiences nightmares for unknown reasons.What is the mystery behind it and what role her mother (Urvashi), and how it is connected to Periyava (YG. Mahendran), unknown power (Regina Cassandra) and others from the rest of the developments.Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Artists ReviewNayanthara slipped into the role effortlessly. She entertained with her graceful performance and also at the same time impressed with her valor and made powerful impact.Urvashi in the role of mother is good balancing her expressions and emotions. &nbsp;Regina Cassandra made her presence felt on the screen in a different role. But her attire and costume design is not up to the mark and she looked odd on the screen.Duniya Vijay made is Kollywood Debut came up with a decent performance. However, Yogi Babu's comedy didn't work out. Others performed according to their roles.Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewMahasakthi story is penned by Sundar C. While the first part is directed by RJ Balaji and NJ. Saravanan, Sundar directed the sequel. The story is different from the first part. The first part dealt with take godmen exploiting the beliefs of the people. Sundari C went one step ahead, including Goddess, evil forces, Saitan and what not.However the story follows the routine template of devotional and fantasy elements and comes with a little twist. He blended commercial and entertainment masala elements in his own style. Though there are experienced actress like Urvashi, even her presence couldn't take the film to next level. To the top of it, Yogi Babu's comedy looked irrelevant and out of sync and impacted the narration.The narration starts with the mysterious elements in the temples and the pace is slow and steady. Only after Nayanthara starts to unravel the mystery, the screenplay picks up pace. After the fight between good and evil, the story ends on a predictable note. Sneha and Khushboo made special appearances and feature in a high octane doing ahead of the heavily used VFX climax.Hip Hop Tamizha's music didn't add any value to the proceedings. His elevated the scenes to some extent with impactful background score but most of the time it turned out to be loud.The re-recording highlighted the mood of the film's genre. The Cinematography of Gopi Amarnath added value to the narration and is effective. VFX turned out to be the weak link. The editing of Fenny Oliver is ok but could have been far better at times. Dialogues are ok. Production values are good.Mahasakthi Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Nayanthara</li></ul>Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Weak Screenplay</li><li>Illogical Scenes</li><li>VFX</li></ul>Mahasakthi(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Mahasakthi fails to make any impact devotionally. People are left to wonder, why Sundar named the film as the sequel to Mookuthi Amman. He could have named it with different title or Aranmanai 5. It seems he was under the impression the more characters, supernatural elements will excite all. But weak Screenplay, illogical scenes and characterizations brought down the intensity. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Mahashakti.

Scene (2026) Movie: What's BehindSuriya who is riding on the success of Karuppu and Viswanath &amp; Sons is coming to show his police power with his film Scene which released on 6 November 2026. Let us see whether Suriya's police power shook the box office or not.Scene (2026) Movie: Story ReviewScene story revolves around a police officer and the happenings after he starts investigating and reopening an unsolved case. DSP Premraj(Suriya) who stays away from the police force for unknown reasons, is bestowed upon the responsibility to reopen an unsolved case and start the investigation.What Premraj stays away from the police force, what startling findings he unravels in the investigation and how it is connected to his girlfriend Maya( Nazriya Nazim), his father (Anandraj), Stephen (Lal), Eeswaran(Naslen), Inspector Sibi (Rajpriyan) form the crux of the developments.Scene (2026) Movie: Artists ReviewSuriya looked young , energetic and dashing on the screen. He as a police officer showed variations in his expressions and emotions as an unpredictable and eccentric person. He with his mannerisms and comic timing entertains all.Naslen came up with a chilling performance and his psychological battle with Suriya is good. Nazriya Nazim is good and enacted action sequences with ease. Her chemistry with Suriya is attractive. However she looked older than Suriya.Lal with his performance evoked a few laughs. Others like Anandraj and Raj Priyan are ok in their roles.Scene (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewScene story is penned by Jithu Madhavan of Aavesham fame. He made his Kollywood entry with this film. He starts the narration in an interesting manner before the introduction of Suriya in a typical stylish way as usual.The first half is full of investigation proceedings, dialogues between three cops and a few hilarious elements in the backdrop of serious tone. However, a couple of scenes and twists looked unconvincing. Still the first half turns out to be a decent watch.The second half nose dives completely with uninteresting elements and insipid investigation. Except for a few scenes here and there, everything turns lackluster. The climax ends on a disappointing and weak note with no real face off.Sushin Shyam failed completely with his music. However, he came up with a breezy and groovy background music to elevate the scenes. His innovative background score added a quirky look to the proceedings.Vineeth Augustin with his Cinematography elevated the tone and tenor of the film's genre. Ajmal Sabu's editing turned out to be a mixed bag. He left many dragging scenes unattended in the second half which resulted in a tedious watch. Production values are adequate.Scene Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Suriya</li><li>Background Score</li><li>Few Entertaining Elements</li></ul>Scene Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Uninteresting Investigation</li><li>Characterizations</li></ul>Scene (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Scene turns out to be a routine investigative drama. Except for Suriya's performance and few hilarious elements, it offered nothing new. Jithu Madhavan is successful in showing Suriya in a different way but the weak characterizations and surprisingly weak investigation along with the underwhelming climax played the spoilsport. A racy screenplay and powerful characterizations doing with redoing of the script would have added more power. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2.25 rating for Scene.

They bring innocence and natural expressions to their characters, handling the emotional and humorous moments convincingly.Baby Khushi and the other child actors add to the film's entertainment value. Jayasudha is effective as the grandmother, while Vasuki Anand and Harshavardhan do well as RV's parents. Rajeev Kanakala stands out with a strong performance.Summer Holidays (2026) Movie: Technical AspectsSrikar Nayan G builds the story around childhood friendships, summer holidays and the simple joys of village life. The film brings back memories of carefree vacations spent playing with friends and enjoying time away from school. It also underlines the importance of friendship, hard work and finding happiness beyond academic marks.The film begins with the conflict between a father and son before moving into the village setting. The narrative picks up pace as RV meets KV, and the emotional interval sequence sets up the second half well.However, the proceedings become predictable after the interval. Though the emotional moments, both happy and sad, have their share of impact, the screenplay follows familiar lines. The climax provides some emotional satisfaction, but the film could have made a stronger impression with tighter writing.Sai Prakash Ummadisingu's cinematography captures the village atmosphere beautifully. Sinjith Yerramilli's songs are pleasant and have been picturised well. Santosh Naidu's editing is decent, though a few portions could have been trimmed.

Debutant director Srikar Nayan G handles the central idea with clarity and conviction. The producers deserve appreciation for backing a story that focuses on simple human emotions rather than relying on violence and commercial gimmicks.However, the film's impact is limited by its flat narration and convenient screenplay. A tighter script, a more engaging pace and fewer predictable moments could have made it a better experience. Despite its pleasant moments, the film leaves the feeling that something is missing.Considering its strengths and shortcomings, Cinejosh rates Summer Holidays 2.5/5.

Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: What's BehindRamayana is one of the most ambitious Indian films, bringing the country's much-loved epic to the big screen on a grand scale. Nitesh Tiwari, known for films like Dangal and Chhichhore, has taken up the responsibility of presenting this timeless story to audiences across the world. Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana have added to the curiosity surrounding the project. With A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer handling the music, expectations are high. The film's massive scale and star cast have made it one of the most anticipated cinematic ventures. Let us see how far Ramayana lives up to the expectations.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: StoryThe Ramayana is a story that needs no introduction. Nitesh Tiwari brings the epic to the big screen, focusing on the journey of Rama, his marriage to Sita, their exile and the events that lead to her abduction by Ravana. The first part introduces the key characters and sets up the conflict between Rama and Ravana, with the much-awaited battle left for the next instalment.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: PerformancesRanbir Kapoor looks convincing as Lord Rama. He brings the required calmness and dignity to the character. Sai Pallavi is a good choice for Sita, and her natural performance adds grace to the role. Both actors do justice to their characters.Yash makes his presence felt as Ravana. His looks, body language and screen presence suit the character, and he brings the required intensity whenever he appears. Ravi Dubey is good as Lakshmana, while the supporting cast does its job well.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: Technical AspectsThe biggest attraction of Ramayana is its scale. The sets, costumes, locations and production design give the film a grand look. The visual effects work well in several important sequences, though a few shots could have been better. The Jatayu episode is one of the film's standout moments.A.R. Rahman and Hans Zimmer's music adds weight to the proceedings, particularly in the important sequences. The background score works better than the songs. Cinematography is impressive, while the editing could have been sharper in a few portions.Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: AnalysisNitesh Tiwari has taken up a challenging task, and there is no doubt that the film has been mounted on a huge scale. Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi do justice to Rama and Sita, while Yash brings the necessary power to Ravana. The casting is one of the film's strengths.However, the film doesn't maintain the same pace throughout. Some episodes take longer than necessary, and the narration loses momentum in a few places. Despite having several visually impressive moments, the emotional impact is not equally strong across the film. The familiar story also puts more responsibility on the writing to keep audiences engaged, and this is where the film could have done better.The first part largely concentrates on establishing the characters and their worlds. While it offers enough moments to enjoy on the big screen, the wait for the actual Rama-Ravana battle may leave some viewers wanting more.Ramayana Part 1 Movie: Plus Points<ul><li>Grand production values</li><li>Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi's performances</li><li>Yash as Ravana</li><li>Impressive visuals</li><li>Jatayu episode</li><li>Background score</li></ul>Ramayana Part 1 Movie: Minus Points<ul><li>Slow narration in parts</li><li>Lengthy runtime</li><li>Uneven visual effects</li><li>Emotional impact could have been stronger</li><li>Editing could have been tighter</li></ul>Ramayana Part 1 (2026) Movie: VerdictRamayana has the scale and performances needed for a grand theatrical experience. Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash make the familiar characters interesting to watch, and some sequences leave a strong impression. However, the slow narration and lack of consistent emotional depth hold the film back. It is a decent first instalment that sets up the bigger conflict for the next part.

Where this leads to, how it is connected to his wife Swarna (Preeti Sunder), Anji (Charu Vaken) and others form the interesting twist.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Artists ReviewNaresh Agasthya performed well in his role. He showed his acting talent showing variations in his body language and screen presence. He showed the required seriousness in his role during the investigation and while following orders from the higherups. &nbsp;He delivered dialogues highlighting the emotions with his expressions. Charu Vaken impressed with his performance in the final episodes.Banerjee is good in the role of the higher up. Shravani Reddy is good in her role. However Anji's character is not shown in the most interesting manner. Raja Ravindra, Preeti Sundar, Shiva Alapati performed according to their roles.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Technicians ReviewRudravanam PS story is written by Taj Sayed and is helmed by Sasidhar Munnangi. He tried to excite all with the crime thriller. The first four episodes progress in a interesting and exciting manner. He designed the character of Naresh Agasthya. The happenings involving the character of Anji is good. But these things could have been shown in the more impactful manner.Sasidhar Munnangi the loses plot in the last three episodes diluting the intensity levels. Had these scenes designed in &nbsp;an interesting manner, things would have been different. The more subplots as the investigation progresses resulted in the decrease of interest leves as it resulted in confusion all over. It turned out to be a mixed bag with few scenes getting dragged unnecessarily and some scenes ending rather abruptly.Many murder mysteries came with such plot and very few of them are engaging. Rudravanam PS also fails to engage. The first four episodes though interesting are dragged showing the restlessness in the police force and the story do not head anywhere. The entire story is narrated in the last two episodes and the &nbsp;motive of the culprit is shown in the last episode and this is little interesting. However, even that pales due to the weak motive.Ashkar Ali with his cinematography showed the rural village atmosphere in the natural and realistic manner. However Madhav's editing should have been &nbsp;more sharper as there are many scenes that slowed the pace of the narration. The background music of Saluri Vasu Rao is good and added value to the narration. Production values are good.Rudravanam PS Web Series: Advantages<ul><li>Naresh Agasthya's characterisation</li><li>BGM</li><li>Cinematography</li><li>Interesting &nbsp;Climax</li></ul>Rudravanam PS Web Series: Disadvantages<ul><li>Missing Emotions</li><li>Spineless Screenplay</li><li>Subplots</li><li>Weak Twists</li></ul>Rudravanam PS Web Series: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Rudravanam PS turns out to be a routine investigative thriller. Naresh Agasthya came up with a spirited performance and director Sasidhar Munnangi tried to thrill viewers in this 7 episodes webseries. While he made an impactful start with the first four episodes showing the investigating episodes in an exciting and interesting manner, the last three episodes except for the climax goes for a toss. For all his efforts, though the characterisation of Naresh Agasthya's role appeals, everything goes missing. The story lacked the emotional connect with things passing through the motions and screenplay turning spineless and stale without offering nothing much to excite. Little finetuning of the script and racy screenplay and powerful emotions would have added more punch to the story. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating for Rudravanam PS.

Rudravanam PS Web Series Review

Akka (2026) Web Series: StoryAkka is set in the 1980s in Pernuru, a fictional South Indian kingdom ruled by women for generations. The society follows its own traditions, with women holding power and men having a limited role in the kingdom's affairs. Bhavani (Keerthy Suresh) is the powerful matriarch who controls the kingdom and tries to protect its traditions and authority.However, her world gets disturbed when Rudra (Radhika Apte), an outsider with a personal vendetta, enters Pernuru with plans to take control. What follows is a violent battle involving power, revenge, betrayals and family rivalries. How Bhavani handles the threat and what happens to the kingdom form the rest of the story.Akka Web Series: PerformancesKeerthy Suresh gets a strong character in Bhavani, but the writing does not give her enough emotional depth to make the role memorable. She manages to bring some authority to the character, although the overall impact remains limited.Radhika Apte gets an interesting role as Rudra, but her characterisation and dialogue delivery do not create the desired impact. Tanvi Azmi and Monika Panwar have their moments, while Mahesh Manjrekar, Anshuman Pushkar, Vishak Nair and the rest of the supporting cast have limited scope to make an impression.Akka Web Series: AnalysisAkka starts with an interesting premise. A fictional kingdom controlled by women, where power struggles and gangster politics take centre stage, offers plenty of scope for an engaging period crime drama. The conflict between Bhavani and Rudra also provides an interesting foundation.Unfortunately, the writing fails to make proper use of this idea. The series spends considerable time establishing its fictional world, traditions and characters, but struggles to create emotional involvement. Despite several betrayals, violent confrontations and power games, the proceedings rarely become engaging.The biggest problem is the lack of strong characterisation. Both Bhavani and Rudra are introduced as powerful women, but their motivations and emotional journeys are not explored effectively. Several subplots occupy considerable screen time without adding much value to the central conflict.The series also relies heavily on violence and grand visuals to create an impression. However, the action sequences lack the impact required to elevate the drama. Even when the narrative reaches important turning points, the emotional connect remains weak.Akka Web Series: Technical AspectsThe production design, costumes and locations give the series a lavish appearance. However, the artificial presentation and excessive stylisation make the fictional world less convincing. The background score is largely unremarkable and fails to enhance the intensity of the confrontations. The writing and direction needed much more conviction to turn the ambitious premise into an engaging drama.Akka Web Series: Plus Points<ul><li>Interesting central premise</li><li>Some detailing of the matriarchal society</li><li>Lavish production design and costumes</li></ul>Akka Web Series: Minus Points<ul><li>Weak and simplistic writing</li><li>Poor character development</li><li>Lack of emotional depth</li><li>Unconvincing world-building</li><li>Underwhelming action and background score</li></ul>Akka Web Series: VerdictAkka has an interesting premise and a lavish setup, but the execution fails to match its ambition. The power struggle between two strong female characters could have made for an engaging gangster drama. However, weak writing, shallow characterisation and a lack of emotional depth make the series a disappointing watch. Despite its visual grandeur, Akka turns out to be more about show than substance.

She indulged in glamor treat to attract youth. She is ok with her expressions. Most of the role her role demanded singular expression and it is ok. She delivered dialogues accordingly. She also enacted few stunts to thrill.Chandrakanth Kollu who made his debut in the role of brother is good. He showed emotions and delivered dialogues and came up with a decent performance. Poorvaj played the role of the scientist and investigating officer. He overacted in the role of the investigating officer testing the patience of all. He is fine in the role of the scientist.Manish Gilada, Archana Ananth,Vishal Raj, Chakradhar and others performed according to their roles.KilleR(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewKilleR story is penned by Poorvaj. He tried to thrill viewers with spy thriller with sci fi elements. He started the narration in an &nbsp;interesting way but quickly loses plot even before the interest is built. He tried to come up with numerous questions and with different screenplay and taking, use of various technological jargons, he decided to provided the answers.While he generated interest with some of the scenes, the investigation scenes irritates viewers with the overaction of the cast and the repetitive scenes. The end of the first half sets the stage for the second half. Couple of twists in the second half turnout to be ok but many scenes in the second half turned repetitive and routine. There are many illogical scenes and also the climax scenes looks out of snyc.Ashirvad &amp; Suman Jeeva's background score followed the same template. While in the beginning it is good and makes an impact, later it turned out to be typical and routine. Jagadeesh Bommisetti's cinematography is of good standards.

Director Poorvaaj came up with a story that looked silly to the core. The cast and crew just passed through the motions. The non-linear screenplay ended up testing the patience of all the movie lovers and also confuses everyone. No amount of changes in the story, screenplay, or soul would have changed the final output. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.25 rating for Killer.

Home Minister (Murali Sharma) aspires to be the next CM and in the meantime, shocking incidents happen in the birthday party hosted by his son Elvin (Tarak Ponnappa). &nbsp;What are those shocking incidents, what role DSP Sanklap Nayak (Vishwak Sen) played and how Maya (Gayatri Bharadwaj), Police Commissioner Vijay Mishra (Srikanth Iyengar) are connected form the crux of the narration.Cult(2026) Movie: Artists ReviewVishwak Sen once again made an impact with his swag and mannerisms in the role of the police. He showed non sensical attitude in a realistic way in his body language. He made good impact with his expressions and emotions. His dialogue delivery &nbsp;and punches elevate the scenes. He enacted stunts with ease and with full energy.Tarak Ponnappa is good in the role of the minister's son. He impressive with his arrogant mannerisms. Murali Sharma is good in the role of the Home Minister and Srikanth Iyengar made his presence felt as the commissioner. Gayatri Bharadwaj is ok with her performance but her role is not that of importance in the film.Cult(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewCult story &nbsp;is penned by Vishwak Sen. He tried to thrill viewers with the violent action thriller. However he came up with a routine revenge drama increasing the dosage of violence. Most of the time, the narration is high on action and violence sequences and due to this the story and screenplay went for a toss. The entire first half is loaded with predictable elements and the story picks up pace only after the entry of Vishwak Sen &nbsp;and the games in the party. The interval bang sets the stage for the second half.The second half is racy with the unraveling of the mystery and blended with action elements. But &nbsp;the flashback turns routine and climax lacks the thrill. The film ends with the lead to the sequel. The story resembles that of Squid Games and though it is new to the Telugu movie lovers on the big screen, those who watches similar films in OTTs find nothing exciting.The background music of Ravi Basrur elevated many scenes. Aravind Viswanathan's cinematography is good and showed the scenes in a stylish way. The editing of Ravi Teja Girijala is ok. Production values are ok.Cult Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Vishwak Sen</li><li>Action Sequences</li></ul>Cult Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Flashback</li><li>Climax</li></ul>Cult(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Cult turns out to be routine violent action entertainer. Vishwak Sen acted and directed the film. Vishwak Sen drew inspiration of Hollyood films and series like Squid Games. The story turns routine and screenplay turned out to be a mixed back. With the most of the story starting only after more than one hour, viewers get impatient. The weak flashback and climax played the spoilsport.To the top of it, Vishwak Sen who made an impact as an actor on the screen appears only at the end of the first half, disappointing all. Little finetuning of the script and racy screenplay, doing away with predictable first half and other scenes, things would have been different. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Cult.

He entertains with his trademark mannerisms, dialogue delivery and expressions. He also emotes well in the serious portions and carries several scenes with his screen presence. His performance remains one of the film's biggest strengths.Srinidhi Shetty looks good on screen and impresses with her innocent performance.

Though the proceedings are somewhat predictable, Trivikram's dialogues and Venkatesh's performance keep the momentum going.The interval sequence comes with a surprise and creates some interest for the second half. However, the sequence also reminds us of the Tamil film Blast.The second half is where the film loses some of its freshness. The proceedings become predictable and repetitive, with the story largely focusing on how the family tries to save themselves from the criminals. Still, there are a few entertaining moments and twists that keep the film watchable before it reaches a predictable conclusion.Trivikram's story does not offer anything particularly new apart from a couple of twists. The screenplay is straightforward and lacks the novelty expected from him. However, his trademark dialogue writing and the performances help the film in several places.Thaman's songs do not make much of an impact and are not presented particularly well on screen. His background score, however, is effective and suits the proceedings.Ravi K Chandran's cinematography gives the film a colourful and appealing look. Naveen Nooli's editing is good, though the second half could have benefited from tighter cuts.
