    One of my all-time favourites! Even on a rewatch it feels as fresh as it was for the first time. Absolute cinema.
    This is Mohan Raja's best work till date and I think it will remain so forever, I don't think it can get any better. His very first original script turned out to be a masterpiece.
    Special highlight on Arvind Swamy's performance as the notorious business oligarch Siddharth Abhimanyu. What a comeback of acting for Arvind Swamy. The character…

    GVM is back!!!
    GVM's experiment has worked. It's a well-crafted gangster film.

    This film's editing isn't up to the mark, there are moments where the scenes and background music feel completely mismatched.

Her accent takes away your attention initially, but later on, it gets better through the film, I think, at least that's what I felt. I felt the fight scenes were all overwhelming.…

    ★★★★

    I entered the theatre expecting a mediocre, typical Telugu film, but I was totally taken aback. I had disdain before watching this movie because its theme and visuals were similar to Dune, and I jokingly called it 'sasta Dune'. Well, I regretted it halfway through the film.
    The plot of Kalki 2898-AD revolves around the Hindu prophecy of the Kalki Avatar of Lord Vishnu. It has a lot of other Hindu puranic references, especially Mahabharata. Need I say, this is…
