STORY<\/strong> :<\/span><\/p>\n

Story is about a gem named Marakathamani which is possessed by the ghost of King Vikramadithya. Whoever touches the stone gets killed by hitting a mysterious vehicle. Raghunandan (Aadi) who is a small time burglar accompanied by his friend Bujji makes a deal to steal Marakathamani. In the process he takes the help of spirits. How the spirits helped him stealing Marakathamani ? How he escaped the wrath of Vikramadithya forms the story.<\/p>\n

PERFORMANCES<\/strong> :<\/span><\/p>\n

Aadi Pinisetty fits the role perfectly. He did an impressive act with his subtle performance. Though Nikki Galrani doesn’t have much part as heroine, she did a neat job in interesting character. Ramadoss is impressive with his comic timing and expressions. He provided ample entertainment in the film. Kota Srinivasa Rao, Aanand Raj are adequate.<\/p>\n

POSITIVES<\/strong> :<\/span><\/p>\n

NEGATIVES<\/strong> :<\/span><\/p>\n

Wafer thin Plot<\/p>\n

Slow paced Screenplay<\/p>\n

ANALYSIS<\/strong> :<\/span><\/p>\n

Initially the film starts as a story about a diamond heist. As the story proceeds it takes an interesting turn towards Horror involving evil spirits. Director Saravanan succeeds in extracting Dark Comedy by mixing Horror and fantasy elements. Though the idea of mixing different genres is good, it is due to the inconsistency in maintaining the grip on narration the film feels dragged at times. It worked at parts due to the indulgence of comedy at regular intervals.<\/p>\n

Background Music is impressive and elevated most of the scenes. Camerawork is decent and added value to the story. Editing could have been better. Dubbing is neatly done with decent Production Values.<\/p>\n

Rating<\/span> : 2.75 \/ 5<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
