Geethanjali Malli Vachindi Movie Review.

Introduction 

“Geethanjali Malli Vachindi,” the sequel to the successful horror-comedy “Geethanjali,” promises to bring back the chills and chuckles. But does it succeed in capturing the spirit of its predecessor? Let’s find out.

The Plot 

The story picks up with Srinu (Srinivas Reddy), a director whose career is in a slump after three consecutive flops. In a twist of fate, he’s offered a chance to direct a horror-comedy by a wealthy tycoon, Vishnu (Rahul Madhav). The catch? The film must star an actress named Anjali (Anjali) and be shot in a haunted mansion, Sangeet Mahal.

Starring 

Anjali reprises her role, bringing depth and nuance to the character. Srinivas Reddy, as the beleaguered director, delivers a performance that is both comedic and heartfelt. The supporting cast, including Satyam Rajesh, Shakalaka Shankar, and Sunil, add their unique flavors to this horror-comedy concoction.

What Works

• Comedic Timing: The actors’ comedic timing is impeccable, providing genuine laughter throughout the film.
• Horror Elements: While the horror elements are not groundbreaking, they serve their purpose in providing the occasional jump scare.
• Cinematography: Sujatha Siddharth’s cinematography captures the eerie atmosphere of the haunted mansion effectively.

What Does Not Work

• Predictable Plot: The storyline doesn’t offer many surprises, sticking to the tried-and-tested formula of its genre.
• Underdeveloped Characters: Some characters lack depth and their motivations are not fully explored.
• Inconsistent Pacing: The film’s pacing is uneven, with some parts dragging and others feeling rushed.

Final Verdict 

“Geethanjali Malli Vachindi” is a mixed bag. It delivers laughs and a few scares but falls short of the original’s charm. It’s an entertaining watch for fans of the genre but may not win over new audiences.

Can I Watch It with My Family

Yes, you can watch it with your family. The film is a horror-comedy with mild scares, making it suitable for family viewing, although it may not be ideal for very young children.

Conclusion 

While “Geethanjali Malli Vachindi” may not live up to the high standards set by “Geethanjali,” it remains a decent attempt at blending horror with humor. It’s worth watching for a light-hearted movie night.

My Rating 3/5 stars 

“Geethanjali Malli Vachindi” entertains but doesn’t innovate, making it a fun, if not memorable, sequel. [Streaming On Aha]
