Harom Hara OTT: Sudheer Babu's Film Storming on OTT, Ranked Number One Nationally
Directed by Gyanasagar and starring Sudheer Babu, the latest film 'Harom Hara' is an action thriller. Malavika Sharma features opposite Sudheer Babu, and Sunil plays a pivotal role. Released to audiences on June 14, the film garnered positive feedback in theaters but failed to achieve significant commercial success, earning only moderate box office returns. Recently, it was released on OTT platforms and is now trending nationally at the number one spot.
Trending at the Top
'Harom Hara' has recently streamed on three OTT platforms: ETV Win, Aha, and Amazon Prime Video. It is gaining special popularity on these platforms, achieving impressive viewership. Amazon announced that 'Harom Hara' had reached the top position nationally and released a special poster in celebration. The film has outperformed several Bollywood films to secure this top spot.

The Reasons for Its Popularity!
In 'Harom Hara,' Sudheer Babu appears as Subrahmanyam, delivering one of the top mass roles of his career. His character receives significant elevations in the second half, reminiscent of films like 'Pushpa' and 'KGF.' Transforming into a mini gangster in Kuppan and manufacturing guns using his mechanical skills, Subrahmanyam's rise to power captivates the audience. The intense action sequence that opens the second half could be considered the best scene of Sudheer Babuâs career. The climax, where Sudheer Babu single-handedly takes on hundreds of rowdies with powerful weapons, is particularly thrilling. If some dragging scenes had been trimmed and the love track between the hero and heroine better developed, the film might have received even better reception in theaters. Overall, the film team is very pleased with its performance on OTT.
Director Deserves Praise!
Director Gyanasagar Dwaraka has skillfully navigated a routine story, managing to impress with his storytelling. He introduces the point he wants to convey directly, integrating stunning action sequences into the narrative. The first half primarily focuses on character introductions, leading up to a twist before the interval that pulls the audience into the main story. The story picks up pace from the second half, though it becomes somewhat predictable, which slightly detracts from its impact. Overall, for fans of action movies, 'Harom Hara' offers a substantial treat.
The Story
In the 1980s, in the border area of Kuppam which connects Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka, Thammireddy and his family, including his brother Basava and son Sharath Reddy, ruled the area harshly, creating chaos and injustice. Subrahmanyam (Sudheer Babu) arrives in this tough environment and starts working as a mechanical lab assistant at a local college. However, he quickly runs into trouble with Sharath Reddy, leading to his suspension. With financial pressures mounting, Subrahmanyam uses his mechanical skills to start making guns illegally. Although he initially conflicts with Sharath Reddy, they eventually join forces to continue the gun-making business. Eventually, Subrahmanyam challenges Thammireddyâs authority. What follows? How does Subrahmanyam impact the lives of the people in Kuppam? Why do the locals start to view him as a hero, almost like a god? How does he stand up to Thammireddy? These questions shape the story.

Dhoomam OTT Review: Fahadh Faasil Shines in a Gripping Crime Thriller
Cast: Fahadh Faasil, Aparna Balamurali, Roshan Mathew, Vineeth, Anu Mohan, Achyuth Kumar, Vijay Menon, and others.
Writer and Director: Pawan Kumar
Music: Poornachandra Tejaswi
Cinematography: Preetha Jayaraman
Editing: Suresh Arumugam
Producers: Vijay Kiragandur, Vijay Subramanian
Actor Fahadh Faasil has made a significant impact in the South Indian film industry with his versatile acting skills. He has received critical acclaim for his outstanding performances, both as a hero and a villain. His Malayalam film "Dhoomam," released last year, received positive reviews in theaters. Recently, the Telugu version of this film was released on OTT platforms. Starting from July 11, the movie began streaming on Aha. Has this film impressed the Telugu audience? Has Fahadh Faasil once again captivated viewers with his performance? What is the concept of 'Dhoomam'? Let's explore this review.
The Plot
Avinash (Fahadh Faasil) works at a cigarette company as the sales head, where his intelligence significantly boosts sales. One day, he has an argument with the company's MD, Siddh (Roshan Mathew), which leads to his resignation. While traveling with his wife Diya (Aparna Balamurali), Avinash is attacked by a masked man who kidnaps his wife and warns him to comply with his demands if he wants her back. Who is this masked man? Why is Avinash implicated in a murder case? Is there a connection between the masked man and the company's MD? How does Avinash escape the trap? Thatâs the story.
Performance
In "Dhoomam," Fahadh Faasil delivers a one-man show, completely embodying the role of Avinash. He portrays a husband fighting to save his wife and a man trying to rectify his mistakes with exceptional skill. Aparna Balamurali impresses as Diya with her natural performance. Roshan Mathew, in a negative role, and Vineeth as Praveen, do justice to their characters. The rest of the cast also delivers commendable performances within their roles.
Direction
Director Pawan Kumar aims to highlight the societal harm caused by cigarette and tobacco products through this film. He effectively showcases the tactics cigarette companies use to generate profits and depicts the thrilling struggle of a young man trapped in a dangerous situation trying to save his wife. The parallel narrative of the protagonist's present and past, combined with an engaging screenplay, captures the audience's attention. The twist at the intermission heightens interest in the second half. The film concludes with a unique climax, setting it apart from typical movies. However, the lack of commercial elements, limited characters, and a slow-paced second half are drawbacks.
Technical Aspects
Poornachandra Tejaswi's music, especially the background score, effectively elevates several scenes. The cinematography by Preetha Jayaraman is impressive. The editing by Suresh Arumugam is decent but could have been tighter in the second half. The production values are high, matching the film's quality.
Plus Points
- Fahadh Faasil's performance
- The underlying message
- Unique climax
Minus Points
- Slow-paced narrative
- Second half

Chiru, Tarak, Bunny, Mahesh and Tollywood Unite Against Minister Konda Surekhaâs Controversial Comments on Akkineni Family and Samantha
The Telugu film industry is in uproar over comments made by Minister Konda Surekha while criticizing BRS Working President KTR (K. T. Rama Rao), where she mentioned Samantha, Naga Chaitanya, and Nagarjuna. The Movie Artist Associations have also expressed strong dissatisfaction against Konda Surekha. Various Tollywood stars and celebrities are condemning the Minister's comments, criticizing them as regrettable and politically motivated.
What actually happened?
Comments by Telangana Minister Konda Surekha have caused tremors in Tollywood. On Wednesday, while making severe allegations against former Minister KTR, the working president of BRS, she dragged the Akkineni family and actress Samantha into the controversy. She criticized KTR for allegedly promoting drug habits among cinema people and accused him of troubling cinema celebrities with rave parties. Furthermore, she sensationalized that KTR was the reason behind Naga Chaitanya and Samantha's divorce, claiming that KTR demanded Samantha be sent to him to avoid the destruction of an N convention, a claim which Nagarjuna allegedly forced Samantha to comply with but she refused. Surekha stated that it led to the divorce, as it was a situation of "listen or leave."

Retract Your Comments: Nagarjuna
Actor Nagarjuna has condemned Minister Konda Surekha's comments. He requested that personal matters of individuals be respected. âI strongly condemn the comments made by Honorable Minister Smt. Konda Surekha. Please do not use the lives of celebrities, who stay away from politics, and your opponents to criticize. Respect the personal matters of individuals. As a responsible woman in a high position, your comments and accusations against our family are completely irrelevant and false. I urge you to retract your comments immediately,â Nagarjuna posted on X.

Do Not Use Actors' Lives for Headlines: Naga Chaitanya
Actor Naga Chaitanya commented that Minister Surekhaâs allegations are unacceptable. "Divorce is one of the most painful and unfortunate aspects of life, decided after much consideration and mutual consent between my ex-wife and me. Many baseless allegations have been made about our divorce in the past. We remained silent out of respect for both families. Minister Konda Surekha's comments are not only false but also ridiculous. Such remarks are unacceptable. Society should respect women and not use personal decisions of celebrities for media headlines," Naga Chaitanya stated.

My Divorce Has No Political Influence: Samantha
Samantha responded to Minister Konda Surekha's comments. âMy divorce is a personal matter, and I request that speculations about it cease. It takes a lot of courage and strength for a woman to come forward and fight. Please donât belittle this. As a minister, I hope you realize the weight of your words. When discussing personal matters, one must act responsibly and respectfully. My divorce was amicable and mutually agreed upon without any political influence. Please keep my name out of politics. I have always been and will continue to be apolitical,â Samantha stated.
Such Accusations Should Not Degrade: Chiranjeevi
Megastar Chiranjeevi also strongly condemned the Minister's comments. "I am deeply saddened by the disrespectful comments made by the respected female minister. Targeting celebrities and individuals related to the film industry for quick news is disgraceful. We all unanimously oppose such verbal attacks on members of the film industry. Such accusations against individuals, especially women, who are unrelated to politics, should not degrade their stature. We elect our leaders for societal development, not to diminish their own standing with such comments. Political leaders and dignitaries should inspire others with their actions and words,â Chiranjeevi expressed.

I Strongly Condemn Baseless Accusations: Mahesh Babu
Actor Mahesh Babu also responded to the controversy on X. "The comments made by Minister Konda Surekha against prominent members of our film family have greatly distressed me. As a son to a mother, a husband to a wife, and a father to a daughter, such unwarranted comments against another woman are deeply disturbing. The freedom of speech should not harm others' sentiments. I strongly condemn such baseless and cheap accusations. I also urge that comments not target the film industry. We must respect women and celebrities in our country with the honor they deserve,â Mahesh Babu stated.

The Pinnacle of Degrading Politics: Tarak
Junior NTR criticized the involvement of personal lives in degrading politics. "Dragging personal lives into politics is the pinnacle of degrading politics. Making baseless comments and remaining silent as if we will tolerate it is not acceptable. Those in public life like Minister Konda Surekha should behave responsibly and respectfully, maintaining privacy. Itâs truly saddening to see such irresponsible declarations against the film industry. We wonât remain silent if others make such allegations against us. We will definitely raise this issue to ensure mutual respect and boundaries are maintained. Our society in democratic India will never condone negligent behavior,â NTR warned.

This Behavior Is Extremely Disrespectful: Nani
Young hero Nani also gave a strong counter to Minister Konda Surekha. âSeeing politicians make senseless statements is exasperating. Observing how you speak without responsibility makes one question if you really care about your people. This is not just about film actors, the film industry, or a political party. Such groundless accusations by a person in a dignified position are not at all acceptable. We all must condemn actions that negatively impact society and ensure respect for personal privacy, especially for women. We must collectively promote respect and  decorum in society,â Nani posted on X.

These Comments Are Only for Political Gain: Venkatesh
Senior actor Venkatesh also commented on the controversy. "Using othersâ personal situations for political gain deeply distresses me. Making such comments while holding a responsible position for political benefit is unfortunate. The film industry has been built on mutual respect, hard work, and dedication. Political leaders must maintain respect in public discourse. Bringing personal lives into politics benefits no one and only causes pain to the families involved. Individuals in such significant leadership positions should exercise restraint and empathy. Your actions and words should inspire, not demoralize,â Venkatesh stated.

Icon star Allu Arjun also criticized the Ministerâs comments. âI strongly condemn the baseless and insulting comments made about celebrities and their families. This behavior is extremely disrespectful and contrary to our Telugu cultural values. Such irresponsible actions should not be accepted as normal. Parties must act responsibly and respect personal privacy, especially of women. Together, we must enhance respect and decency in society,â Allu Arjun stated on social media.
