Harom Hara Movie Review.
Introduction
“Harom Hara,” directed by Gnanasagar Dwaraka, is a high-octane action film set in the 1980s. The title is inspired by the ‘harom hara’ chants of devotees to their favorite deity, Subramanya Swamy (Murugan), in Kuppam, Chittoor district. The movie stars Sudheer Babu, Malvika Sharma, Sunil, and others.
The Plot
In Kuppam, Subrahmanyam (played by Sudheer Babu), a talented lab assistant, becomes a gunsmith after getting embroiled in an incident at college. As he rises in the ranks, he faces local evil lords Thammi Reddy, Basava Reddy, and Sharath. The film delves into themes of power, fear, and survival.
