    Shivam Bhaje Movie Review Cast: Ashwin Babu, Digangana Suryavanshi, Hyper Aadi, Arbaaz Khan, Murali Sharma, Tanikella Bharani, Brahmaji Director: Abdul Apsar Hussain Music: Vikas Badisa Editor: Chota K. Prasad Producer: Maheshwara Reddy Release Date: August 01, 2024 The latest film starring Ashwin Babu, who is the brother of well-known anchor and director Ohmkar, is titled 'Shivam Bhaje.' Digangana Suryavanshi plays the lead female role. Directed by Abdul Apsar Hussain, the movie also features notable actors such as Hyper Aadi, Arbaaz Khan, Murali Sharma, Tanikella Bharani, and Brahmaji in significant roles. The promotional materials, trailer, and teaser have significantly raised expectations for this film, which was released on August 1. Let's explore how the film fared and whether it succeeded in captivating the audience. Plot Chandu (Ashwin Babu) works as a loan recovery agent. During his job, he falls in love with Shailaja (Digangana Suryavanshi), who works in a chemical lab. Due to an incident, Chandu loses his sight. Following a dramatic event blessed by Lord Shiva, an operation restores his vision. However, after regaining his sight, Chandu begins to see various visuals. Whose eyes did Chandu receive? What are these visuals he sees? Why does a mere recovery agent end up fighting with enemy nations? What deed did Chandu perform with the grace of Lord Shiva? What role does Dogra (a dog) play in the story? To find out, one must watch the movie. Performances Ashwin Babu delivers a remarkable performance in the role of Chandu, showcasing great versatility across two dimensions. Digangana Suryavanshi captivates the audience as Shailaja. The chemistry between Ashwin and Digangana is effectively established. Bollywood actor Arbaaz Khan impresses in his role as a police officer, and comedian Hyper Aadi elicits laughter with his impeccable timing. Seasoned actors Brahmanandam and Murali Sharma mesmerize with their performances, while other actors adequately fulfill their roles. Direction Director Abdul Apsar Hussain commendable intertwines mystery and devotional elements. Some suspense scenes in this crime drama are quite engaging. The storyline woven around international espionage also pleases, though the screenplay falters at times. The narrative could have been presented more effectively on screen. The subplot involving murders seems rather weak. Chandu's character could have been made more powerful. Some scenes lack logical coherence. The slow pace of the story and a lack of engaging elements in the first half are drawbacks. Unrelated scenes test the audience's patience. Technically On the technical front, Dasarathi Shivendra’s cinematography is impressive. He beautifully presents key scenes, especially in the second half. Vikas Badisa’s music is decent. Chota K. Prasad’s editing is also commendable. The production values are high. Plus Points - Ashwin Babu’s acting - Suspense scenes - Climax Minus Points - Slow narration - Lack of engaging elements - Irrelevant scenes Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 2.5/5

    Ramnagar Bunny Review: Chandrahass Delivers Attitude, But Does It Hit the Mark? Cast: Chandrahass, Vismaya Sri, Richa Joshi, Ambika Vani, Ritu Mantra, Muralidhar Goud, and others. Written and Directed by: Srinivas Mehta Music by: Ashwin Hemant Cinematography: Askar Ali Editor: Marthand K. Venkatesh Producers: Prabhakar, Malayaja Prabhakar Release Date: 04-10-2024 Chandrahass, son of small-screen megastar Prabhakar, has become highly popular on social media as the Attitude Star. His latest film 'Ramnagar Bunny' has been much discussed on social media recently. Chandrahass's comments about refunding ticket money if the movie doesn't appeal went viral. Now, the film has hit the screens. So, how is it? Did the Attitude Star deliver a hit? Did he captivate as a hero? Let’s find out in this review. Plot Bunny (Chandrahass) from Ramnagar has a weakness for girls. He falls in love with every girl he sees, sequentially engaging in love tracks with three of them (Vismaya Sri, Richa Joshi, Ambika Vani). Facing unexpected circumstances, he even promises to marry an auntie and joins her company. However, Bunny realizes he doesn’t actually like the auntie. He discovers he truly loves Shailu (Vismaya Sri), but by then, her engagement with someone else is already fixed. What does Bunny do next? How does he win Shailu’s love? For that, you must head to the theaters. Performances Actor Chandrahass has brought the same attitude to the screen that made him popular, proving to be the film’s strength. Despite this being his first film, his acting is captivating. He performed confidently, excelling in dances and fight scenes, and also impressed in romantic scenes. Vismaya Sri as Shailu looked adorable, and the other three women involved with Bunny were adequate. Muralidhar Goud, playing Bunny's father, contributed well with his comedic timing. Other supporting actors were passable. Direction Director Srinivas Mehta crafted 'Ramnagar Bunny' in a way that appeals to the youth, seemingly writing the story just for Chandrahass. He combined a simple story with an excellent screenplay to deliver full-on entertainment. He successfully portrayed Chandrahass not as a superhero but as a regular young man wandering the streets, which really worked. The film maintains a light-hearted tone throughout, with comedy scenes, a few emotional scenes, four songs, and two fight sequences, making it a perfect commercial film. However, Chandrahass's inexperience shows in dragged scenes and emotional sequences, which can be seen as a minus. Technically On the technical front, three songs were quite good, and the background music was engaging. The cinematography was also well-done. However, drone shots of Hyderabad city and selfie visuals in one song didn't quite work out. The editing was okay, and the production values were good. Plus Points - Chandrahass's acting - Commercial elements - Music Minus Points - Dragged scenes - Weak emotional scenes Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 3/5
