Pandu

I honestly don’t even know if any words can do justice to what I just experienced. Kantara 2 isn’t just a movie - it’s a divine experience. Rishab Shetty didn’t just make a film; it feels like God himself entered his soul while he was writing and performing this masterpiece. The war sequences, his method acting, the emotion, the spiritual energy - everything is on another level. The dedication and willpower it must’ve taken to create something this powerful are beyond words. I had constant goosebumps throughout; it wasn’t like watching a movie, it felt like being taken on a spiritual journey. Thank you, Rishab Shetty, and everyone involved, for giving us such a divine cinematic experience. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece.

Disgusting. Atrocious. Irritating. Possibly the worst movie experience I’ve ever had. After sitting through this so-called film, one thing became painfully clear: today’s Telugu film industry has reached a point where stars no longer bother to respect the characters written for them. Instead, they act however they please, convinced they can “read the audience’s pulse.” And sadly, they might be right - because as long as we, the audience, keep tolerating and encouraging such nonsense, films like OG will keep getting made. It’s become a sickening trend: ever since Baahubali and KGF, every “mass” film seems to think it’s mandatory to include some over-the-top, brutally gory beheading scene- Salaar did it, and now OG follows the same formula. The interval bang where Pawan Kalyan beheads the villain is neither shocking nor impactful. It’s just lazy, recycled, and done only for cheap thrills. And where is the Telugu cinema in this so-called Telugu movie? The authenticity ???. Instead of giving opportunities to talented Telugu actors, the film is filled with Hindi and non-Telugu faces. Worse - many can’t even mouth the dialogues properly. And speaking of dialogues, Pawan Kalyan himself barely has any meaningful ones. The few scenes that stand out (like the heroine’s pregnancy reveal or Pawan Kalyan torturing Tawde’s finger with a group of policemen) are unbearable thanks to terrible acting and forced, cringeworthy lines. There are 10000000 nerves and parts of my body those will never uncringe. The story? What story? What exactly does Pawan Kalyan’s character even do in this film? And what on earth was Prakash Raj’s role supposed to be? I walked into this movie after spending £40 on tickets, hoping that at the very least, it would be watchable based on the trailer. Instead, what I got was a complete disaster a film with no authenticity, no story, no acting worth mentioning. Just noise, violence, and wasted talent. Rating: 0/5 a disgrace to Telugu cinema.
