ETimes review of ‘Raakaasa’
ETimes gave it only 2.5 stars and our review reads: “The second half moves more firmly into supernatural thriller space, revealing the story’s central conflict. While this stretch offers some better comedic moments, it also feels predictable, following a well-worn path of curses and sacrifices. The supporting cast, including Tanikella Bharani, Brahmaji and Ashish Vidyarthi, fit their roles well, but they don’t have enough to do.“Our review adds, “Getup Srinu and Vennela Kishore’s comedy stands out, adding some much-needed energy. However, the film doesn’t build enough tension or emotional weight to lift its central idea. The visual effects, crucial to the setting, feel awkward and detract from the overall impact.Despite mixing genres and some catchy moments, the film falls into a familiar groove. It remains an easy one-time watch that entertains in parts but fails to leave a lasting impression.”While it may not set the box office on fire, the film offers a lighthearted animation for audiences looking for a mix of comedy and mild thrills.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and data in this article have been collected from public and industry sources.
