Sundeep Kishan and VI.Anand are set to enthrall audiences with their upcoming supernatural fantasy thriller, "Ooru Peru Bhairava Kona," featuring the talented Kavya Thapar and Varsha Bollamma in pivotal roles. The film is all about the happenings in the village of Bhairavakona and how it impacts the lives of those in it.
Story:
Basava, also known as Basavalingam (Sundeep Kishan), along with his friend John (Viva Harsha) and the charming Geetha (Kavya Thapar), find themselves in the village of Bhairavakona under unforeseen circumstances. As they delve deeper into the village's mysteries, they encounter shocking events that unravel a complex web of connections between themselves and key figures in the village, including Bhoomi (Varsha Bollamma), Rajappa (Ravi Shankar), and Dr. Narappa (Vennela Kishore). These connections lead to a series of intriguing developments, propelling the story forward with suspense and excitement.
Performances:
Sundeep Kishan effortlessly embodies a role that seems custom-made for him, portraying the emotions of a young man deeply in love and willing to go to great lengths to ensure his beloved's eternal happiness. His dialogue delivery is commendable, adding depth to his character.
Kavya Thapar delivers an okay performance as the female lead, showcasing her beauty but lacking in expressions and emotional depth. There is room for improvement in her portrayal.
Varsha Bollamma shines in her role, delivering strong expressions and emotions that leave a lasting impact alongside Sundeep Kishan. Viva Harsha and Vennela Kishore provide entertainment with their comedy, although it becomes somewhat monotonous. Ravi Shankar makes his presence felt with his powerful dialogue delivery, despite his role being relatively weak.
VI.Anand, along with Bhanu Bhogavarapu, crafts the story of "Ooru Peru Bhairavakona." While the mention of the Garuda Puranam and its missing pages, along with the connection to King Sri Krishna Deva Raya and the lunar calendar, adds an element of intrigue, the film falls short in delivering the strong emotions needed to elevate the narrative.
The initial interest sparked by the introduction of Bhairavakona and the lead characters soon gives way to predictability. The slow pace of narration and predictable screenplay test the patience of the audience. The second half, particularly the attempt to create a scary atmosphere in Bhairavakona, falls flat, missing the mark in creating genuine tension or excitement.
The film concludes in a predictable manner, lacking the anticipated twists and turns. The story is average, and the screenplay and direction suffer, with VI.Anand's reliance on VFX overshadowing the need for a compelling narrative.
Chota K Prasad's editing is adequate but could have been more effective in tightening the pace. Raj Thota's cinematography effectively captures the mysterious aura of Bhairavakona. The VFX are decent, while Shekar Chandra's music, though situational, adds to the emotional depth of the film. The background score, while good, could have been more impactful. The production values are high, contributing to the overall visual appeal of the film.
Verdict:
Ooru Peru Bhairavakona, despite the hype created by Sundeep Kishan and VI. Anand, falls short of expectations. The film fails to deliver even a fraction of the excitement it promised. A rework of the story and script could have prevented this disappointment.
Rating: 2.25 / 5.0
