What a perfect title!
Slim4Shady231 October 2021
Family Drama is a brilliant tale that deals with plenty of action and motivation. The type of crime drama is unseen in Telugu Cinema given how unlike the other movies, isn't here to preach any moral values. It talks about the scenario of a family who care less about human values in this materialistic world. I had no idea about the film except that it starts Suhas before watching it and I liked how it took me by surprise with it's bold content.

The plot is quite simple, as the film is largely driven by the character motivations. A very important medium to expose this is the acting and Suhas simply steals the show here. I would like to appreciate Meher for the way he has written and executed character of Ram. The way he shifts to playing classical music amidst the chaos created by the characters themselves is tremendous. He also overshadows the other characters in the movie, who were also fine in their roles.

It's interesting how the movie landed at the right time when people have only recently been talking about Chundawat family or the Madanapalle double murder family which shows to what level mental illness can lead to despite being educated. This is a terrific setup by Meher and the team to showcase exactly how important it is to recognize the mindset of an unstable person. On the whole, I liked the film even though it could have been few minutes shorter but it's okay since the screenplay is still very tight.

Poor screen play and direction

Unexpected story for Indian cinema, but very poor execution. So much hyped not a fan of Telugu cinema, gave a try because of it was thriller.

Actors did good job, so much logical flaw.

I have wated this movie on SonyLiv in Tamil.

I was compelete thriller and full of suspense. I love all the characters.

But few details is missing like why father is always angry on his family and why they started killing for silly reason and many.

Climax also not satisfactory.

A Chilling Dysfunctional Family Drama
IdlyViswanath20 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Meher Tej's Family Drama shows the chilling story of a sibling serial killers with antisocial tendencies and how he persuades his family to paralyze his father. The movie sees how the family is crumbling trying to keep this secret, especially from the wives of the siblings. The movie moves with twists and turns regarding how they come to know the truth and escape from the situation.

The stand out in this movie is Suhas. The actor who we associate with calmness and fun roles, suddenly dawns a psychotic character and he is truly chilling in the role. The character doesn't leave the mind for a while after watching. His antics, like listening to keerthanas sticks in the mind. The other actors do their parts but don't truly stick in the mind as much.

The writing is good along with the setups. The story is thrilling and has elements of horror present. The wives finding out each other's husbands are serial killers, and convincing one another along with their mother in law about the matter is done convincingly. However, the final escape and killing of the serial killers was a little unexpected and not ideally executed in my opinion. But the final twist of how their mother in law puts them in prison and names them as serial killers was a twist I did not see coming.

Overall, this is a movie for fans of horror and thrillers who are wanting disturbing content and the next step in their dysfunctional family dramas.

arvindasametha13 November 2021
I did not expect this story from Suhas .. But great acting.

There is so much of Suhas we are waiting.

Every actor acted super..every actor played with thier eyes.

Director shud be aporeciated to try something different and Suhas acting in this story is the Top credits.

This is Chilling Thriller .. We see such stories in Malyalam and Bollywood.. Thumbs up to the effort...

Terrific script, Terrible film.
best-review7 November 2021
The film boasts a good story with interesting characters that capture the audience's attention. The screenplay succeeds in maintaining intrigue and keeping viewers engaged throughout.

However, the film suffers from poor production values, which detract from the overall experience. The execution of certain elements may come across as cheap and lacking in quality, resembling a parody rather than a serious production.

While the writing deserves praise for its strengths, the director fails to bring out the best in the material. This discrepancy between the writer's success and the director's shortcomings is evident throughout the film.

In conclusion, despite the film's positive aspects such as a good story, interesting characters, and an intriguing screenplay, it falls short due to poor production values and a subpar execution that resembles a cheap parody. The writer's talent shines through, but the director's inability to deliver hampers the overall result.
