&nbsp;&nbsp; Nani has opened up about the demanding making of The Paradise, saying he personally performed the film’s risky action sequences without a body double. During promotions, he revealed that some schedules lasted nearly 36 hours, while his elaborate look involved heavy braids, extensive makeup, injuries and challenging rope work during action blocks.Nani explained that he prefers performing his own shots because discovering a body double on screen would prevent him from genuinely enjoying the final result. The Paradise required around one hour and 40 minutes for makeup and 20 minutes for removal. He said continuous shooting sometimes left his scalp red and uncomfortable.Nani praised Srikanth Odela’s uncompromising vision, calling the film’s opening episodes among his favourites and highlighting their intensity. He also praised Anirudh Ravichander’s background score, Mohan Babu’s brutal character, Sonali Kulkarni’s dedication as the mother and the supporting performances. He said night time action sequences were designed like individual cinematic set pieces.Addressing the film’s delays, Nani said postponements do not necessarily affect a filmmaker’s career when the final product maintains quality, citing Sukumar’s Pushpa as an example. He said The Paradise was postponed twice before September 24, with the entire team working around the clock to protect its quality. Nani expects audiences to remember its mother-son emotion. - Veda

At the teaser launch, she revealed that director Rawindra Pulle pushed her through demanding action, forest shoots and dangerous sequences, describing the experience as giving her “life” to the character rather than merely performing.The actress revealed that she ran across difficult hill terrain in Kerala, battled mud and spent extended hours underwater for the film. She also jumped from a 90 foot waterfall despite her fear of heights. Rashmika said the reality of performing these sequences proved considerably more difficult than imagining them while reading the script.Rashmika also suffered a hip tendon injury while filming a dance sequence, with her doctor reportedly comparing the scan to a football player’s injury. The production additionally completed what the makers described as India’s first female underwater fight sequence. Kecha handled the action choreography, while Jakes Bejoy composed the intense score.Directed by debutant Rawindra Pulle and produced by UnFormula Films, Mysaa presents Rashmika as a Gond woman in an intense emotional action thriller.

One should commend her for doing such a bubbly , lively and energetic role at this age. She stands out with her performance in the film. Aamani is good in the role of the minister's wife. Jhanvi evoked few laughs in the role of a miser woman. She also emoted well during the climax. Payal Radhakrishna, Jinisha Alishetty, Roopa Srinivas and Sunaina performed according to their roles. Sunaina however at times became over the board and over dramatic. Vamsidhar Goud and Ravi Siva Teja entertained with their humour to some extent. Muralidhar Goud, Pruthvi Dandamudi and others did justice to their roles.Happy Journey(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewHappy Journey story is penned by Abhiramm Naidu. He tried to highlight the experiences and problems in the lives of women of different age groups in an entertaining manner. He starts the narration with the introduction of various female characters and then setting them on a France trip. The entire first half sails through in an entertaining and hilarious manner ending on a interesting emotional twist, setting the stage for the second half.Emotions takes the center stage in the second half with few comedy scenes in-between. The emotions of various female characters are highlighted. However, seeing those scenes on the screen, one gets a feeling that the director got stuck up with the 80s problems and melodrama associated with them. But for all his hard work to pierce the hearts of the viewers with emotional scenes pertaining to men and women, misfired completely. The climax emotional scene turned out to be over dramatic and missed the basic emotions. Once the film ends, viewers will heave a sigh of relief after all the emotional torture. The screenplay resembles that of many old films of the 80s and 90s.Subramaniyan Manigandan turned the scenes colorful with his cinematography. He showed the locations of France in a beautiful and visually appealing manner on the screen. &nbsp;Shekar Chandra's songs turned out to be average. However he elevated the scenes with his background music. Editing of Chota K Prasad is ok but could have been better as there are scenes that impacted the pace of the narration. Dialogues are ok. Production values are decent.Happy Journey Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Annapurna</li><li>Few Hilarious Scenes</li><li>Cinematography</li></ul>Happy Journey Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Routine Story</li><li>Overdramatic, Artificial Emotions</li></ul>Happy Journey(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Happy Journey turns out to be routine hilarious entertainer. Director Abhiramm Naidu's story offered nothing new. Though the story turned out to be routine, he ensured that there are many scenes to entertain viewers. He not only tried to entertain viewers with the female actors but also in the end tried to showcase their problems to connect chords with the viewers emotionally. Doing away with over dramatic scenes, toning down the emotions and more entertaining elements and racy screenplay would have added more punch to the final result. Considering all these elements Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating for Happy Journey. &nbsp;

He tried to thrill viewers with a thriller. He starts the narration diving into the main point of the missing girl and then the investigation that follows subsequently. The first half proceeds with the conflict between two cops and the revelation about Meghana and the interrogation of the suspects. The first half ends on an interesting note with few surprising revelations setting the tone for the second half.The second half goes further into murders and drugs etc. The first half included a song to highlight the father-daughter sentiment but it failed to generated the required emotions. The song placement looked odd and out of sync. They could have easily done away with the song.The main villian revelation did not excite anyone as the director failed to keep the viewers engaged with the suspense till the end. Viewers can easily guess the villian even before the end of the first half thus diluting the intensity levels in the second half. Many such films came earlier and the narration dragged with the routine breakup story of Karthik testing the patience of the viewers. The interval twist turns out to be decent and the second half turns little racy. But the predictable elements robbed the viewers of the excitement.Though few scenes in the runup to the finding of Meghana looked good, the weak villian turned out to be the main drawback. The climax ends on a routine note with an action sequence. There are many routine and predictable scenes in the second half as the narration proceeds towards the climax.The cinematography of Sam K Naidu is good. He showed the visuals in an appealing manner. However in few scenes, the color grading &nbsp;is not done at all robbing the viewers of the seamless experience on the screen. RR.Dhruvan's background music failed to make an impact. It is not in sync with the storyline. Re recording and mixing also turned out to be below average. However, the songs he tuned are good and shot well. Basava's editing left a lot to be desired. There are many repetitive scenes and he could have done away with one song completely and also many scenes especially in the first half. Production values are good.Missing Meghana Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Interesting Point</li><li>Few Scenes</li></ul>Missing Meghana Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Predictable Elements</li><li>Weak Villian</li></ul>Missing Meghana(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Missing Meghana turns out to be another run of the mill crime thriller. Director Vachaspathy came up with an interesting point but he failed in his execution. Many predictable elements, repetitive scenes, dragged narration, weak villain ended up testing the patience of the viewers. Little finetuning of the script, racy screenplay, interesting twists, doing away with monotony would have added more substance to the final output. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.25 rating for Missing Meghana.

Charan Babu, Srija and Radhika Preethi performed well according to their roles.Panchanama(2026) Web Series: Technicians ReviewPanchanama story is penned by Mohan Srivatsa. The webseries comes with 6 episodes, each with a duration of around 25-30 minutes. He tried to thrill viewers with the medical mafia storyline. He managed to generate interest at times however the screenplay turned out to be utterly predictable and bereft of twists. Generally crime thrillers have good following in the OTTs and so Mohan Srivatsa also chose the similar topic.He drew inspiration from Malayalam webseries and followed the same template of a cop investigating the mysterious death and then he exposed the medical mafia. He highlighted the nexus between medical mafia, doctors and organ trafficking. Apart from it, he also highlighted the emotions between brothers and sisters.However, the screenplay assumed predictable trope and the narration lacked the exciting and interesting twists and turns. One can easily predict the villains and the next scenes easily. Even the crime investigation scenes are not shown in an interesting manner. With the unraveling of the villain in the final episode, the webseries ends on a tame note.Naresh Kumaran elevated the scenes with his background music. The cinematography of Sandeep Kanth gave the scenes and proceedings a realistic feel. Editing of Srinivas Bynaboina is ok and could have been better as there are scenes that dragged the pace of the narration. Production values are good.Panchanama Web Series: Advantages<ul><li>Plot</li><li>Few Scenes</li></ul>Panchanama Web Series:Disadvantages<ul><li>Predictable Elements</li><li>Lack of Twists</li></ul>Panchanama(2026) Web Series: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Panchanama turns out to be another run of the mill investigative medical thriller. Director Mohan Srivatsa cameup with a thriller in the backdrop of medical mafia and many such films and series' came earlier. Though the plot is interesting, Mohan Srivasta's screenplay turned predictable with investigation scenes failing to excite viewers. To the top of it, with the villain not getting arrested, viewers feel that the series ended in a incomplete manner as the makers thought of coming with season 2. The forced romantic elements, artificial villianisms, etc robbed the viewers of realistic experience. A little finetuning of the script, racy screenplay, doing away with redundant elements and more thrilling twists would have added value to the proceedings. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Panchanama.

Mahendragiri Varahi Review

Epic First Semester(2026) Movie: What's BehindAnand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya are back together after their impressive combination in Baby. This time, they are paired in Epic First Semester, directed by Aditya Haasan. The film carries the curiosity of exploring the journey of a young man who lands in the UK and experiences love, relationships and life away from home. Let us see what surprises Epic First Semester has in store.Epic First Semester(2026) Movie: Story ReviewThe story revolves around Aditya, an aspiring filmmaker who lands in the UK against his wishes because of his parents Chandrashekhar and Rani.An introvert who has hardly interacted with girls suddenly finds himself in a completely new environment. His meeting with Kadali changes his world, and their relationship gradually moves through love, live-in life, emotional confusion, and the realities of a serious relationship.The situations they face and where their relationship finally heads form the rest of the story.Epic First Semester(2026) Movie: Artists ReviewAnand Deverakonda performs well as Aditya. He brings innocence and vulnerability to the character and is particularly good in scenes involving his introverted nature and discomfort in a new environment.Vaishnavi Chaitanya gets a contrasting character and does justice to the role. Her mood swings and emotional changes are handled reasonably well. The chemistry between Anand and Vaishnavi works in several portions, although it does not reach the intensity of their Baby combination.Sivaji and Vasuki have limited scope as Anand's parents but make their presence felt. Srinivas Gavi Reddy gets a few laughs as Manoj. Kalyan Shankar is decent in his role as Sinjith. The remaining actors perform according to their roles.Epic First Semester(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewAditya Haasan starts the film on an interesting note by taking the character of Aditya into a new phase of his life. The idea of showing what happens when an innocent youngster grows up and lands in a foreign country has potential.The first half has enough lively moments to keep the proceedings moving. The relationship between Aditya and Kadali develops naturally in parts, and the film becomes more engaging once their equation takes a serious turn.The second half is where the film loses some momentum. The relationship discussions, pregnancy fears, marriage and practical problems provide the central conflict, but the film does not always create enough tension around them.Still, unlike a completely routine romantic drama, the film has a few emotionally relatable situations. The conflict may be small, but some of the characters and conversations manage to hold attention. The climax could have been stronger. The open ending is clearly designed to leave scope for the next chapter, but it does not deliver the expected emotional punch.Hesham Abdul Wahab's music is one of the film's positives. The songs are melodious and suit the mood of the story. His background score is also decent. Azeem Mohammad's cinematography gives the film a pleasant look. The UK locations are captured beautifully and add freshness to the proceedings.Navin Nooli's editing is adequate, though some portions could have been trimmed. The dialogues are mostly natural, with a few bold conversations adding flavour. Production values are good.Epic Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Anand Deverakonda's performance</li><li>Vaishnavi Chaitanya's performance</li><li>Music And BGM</li><li>Cinematography</li><li>Some relatable relationship moments</li><li>First half</li></ul>Epic Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Slow second half</li><li>Limited conflict</li><li>Repetitive conversations</li><li>Climax</li><li>Emotional impact could have been stronger</li></ul>Epic First Semester(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisEpic First Semester is a decent attempt at presenting the emotional journey of an introvert youngster experiencing love and relationships in a foreign country.The biggest advantage is that the film does not completely depend on artificial twists or forced drama. Anand and Vaishnavi bring a certain naturalness to their characters, and their chemistry works in several scenes.At the same time, the simple conflict becomes both the strength and weakness of the film. The situations are relatable, but the screenplay sometimes takes too long to move forward. A tighter edit could have made the film considerably more engaging.The film also misses some of the entertainment and emotional intensity that made Baby such a talking point. However, Epic First Semester has enough good moments, decent performances and soothing music to make it a one-time watch for viewers who enjoy relationship dramas.Considering these elements, CineJosh goes with a 2.25 rating for Epic First Semester.

Karni (Maadhav Bhupathiraju) raises a calf which becomes a bison(Maari) and he has to perform a ritual. But just before the ritual, startling developments happen. Where this leads to and how it is connected to Manju (Deepa Balu), Jalandhar (Vikas Vasishta), Uttam (Maneesh), occult practitioner (Rupa Lakshmi), form the exciting part.Maremma (2026) Movie: Artists ReviewMaadhav got the tall physique and looks. However on debut despite his best efforts he failed to get his basics right. He failed with his expressions and emotions and looked a complete mismatch. He should hone his skills rigorously and seriously to sustain in the industry.Deepa Balu fared better than him. But her characterisation turned out to be weak and did not offer much scope to show her acting talent. Vinod Kumar as a villager got limited and inconsequential role.Vikas Vasishta is good on the screen. Rupa Lakshmi made an impact with her performance. Others performed according to their roles.Maremma (2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewMaremma story is penned by Manchala Nagaraj. He tried to attract all with an impactful story in the rustic Telangana backdrop. Many films with Telangana backdrop and accent came earlier and Maremma completely failed on all fronts as the story turned out to be weak and script became spineless. The writing and screenplay did not inspire any confidence and direction failed to justice in any manner.With routine and outdated story and despite the claims of based on real life incidents, the film failed to generate interest. There is not a single scene in the film that generated interest among movie lovers. Everything turned out to be a tedious watch. Even the so called comedy scenes looked forced and senseless. The romantic track turned out to be another weak point and the entire second half which revolves around finding the missing bison, is redundant with repetitive scenes testing the patience of the viewers. The pre climax and climax are stretched to the core and finally when the film ended, viewers heave a sigh of relief.Prashanth R. Vihari, Bipradeep Dutta's tunes are just ok. The background score is fine but the substandard story couldn't be elevated by their efforts. The cinematography of Prasanth Ankireddy is below standard, disappointing all. Editing of Sai Babu Talari offered nothing much and he left many scenes unattended. Dialogues are nothing new and production values are below standard.Maremma Movie: Advantages<ul><li>None</li></ul>Maremma Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Casting</li><li>Lack of Exciting Elements</li><li>Writing</li></ul>Maremma (2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Maremma turns out to be a disappointing drama in Telangana backdrop. Maadhav's weak performance and director Manchala Nagraj's senseless story, spineless screenplay and outdated script turned the film into a woeful one. No amount of rework would have changed the fate of Maremma. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Maremma.

Soori and Suhaas came up with spirited performances and director Mathimaaran Pugazhendi came up with an interesting plot in the backdrop of boat racing. However, he failed to take it to the next level, turning the scenes into predictable, routine and monotonous. A little finetuning of the script, including more interesting and exciting elements and racy screenplay would have added more fire power. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating to Mandaadi.

The second half turns out to be even more routine and most of the scenes get a dragged feeling as the so-called emotions fail to make an impact even in the climax.The editing of Dinesh Peddi lacked crispness. He should have used the editing scissors more effectively. Sehkar Chandra's music is ok but the songs fail to make an impact on the viewers.

The slow pace, predictable elements and missing emotions, undid all the good intentions. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.25 rating for Sahaa-Life of Sanju.

However this time his performance turned out to be a roller coaster ride. At times he looked terrific on the screen and at other times he looked like a novice. His dialogues had an anglical accent and this may not go well with all viewers. He is good on screen with his body language, dialogue delivery and emotions.Kayadu Lohar is ok in her role. She looked good on the screen but got limited scope to show her acting talent. Antony Varghese Pepe steals the show with his impactful performance. So did Samyukta Viswanathan in her role. Mysskin played the role of the antagonist and his role is too predictable. To over come that he tried to bring in eccentricity but it impacted in a negative way. Vinay Forrt and Kathir were minimised on the screen. Others performed as per their roles.Technicians ReviewI'm Game story is penned by Nihas Hidayath. He came up with an interesting and exciting plot. However the narration and screenplay shifts completely turning the entire thing into a disjointed one. Nihas Hidayath narrated so many things and this makes viewers get accustomed to the happenings and the characters.

But there are many scenes and characters that looked forced and out of sync to the story.While the first half after the initial confusion, turns interesting in the run up to the interval and brings an end setting to the exciting second half, the second half sinks even further. There are many unnecessary characters and the flat narration and uninspiring execution played the spoil sport. The flashback episodes undoes all the good intentions. Everything ended up irritating and testing the patience of the viewers.The music and background tuned by Jakes Bejoy turned out to be a disappointing affair. He tried to elevate the scenes that offered nothing new. Jimshi Khalid's cinematography got nothing much to excite . &nbsp;The editing of Chaman Chakko could have been far better as there are scenes that impacted the flow of the narration. Dialogues are ok and production values are grand.Advantages<ul><li>Unique Concept</li></ul>Disadvantages<ul><li>Screenplay</li><li>Confusing Narration&nbsp;</li><li>Cliched Elements&nbsp;</li><li>Listless Characterizations</li></ul>Rating AnalysisAltogether, I'm Game turns out to be average thriller. Dulqer Salmaan should be credited for selecting a different story and Nihas Hidayath came up with a unique plot. However, Nihas completely failed with his screenplay and direction. In trying to include more twists and turns, he introduced numerous characters ending up confusing the viewers. Everything turned flat and he failed to do justice with disappointing execution. A little finetuning of the script, racy screenplay, doing away with predictability could have added more spice to the proceedings. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with a 1.75 rating for I'm Game.

The role is tailor-made for him, and he needs not do anything unique for the role. His comic timing is intact, and he did well in emotional scenes. Allari Naresh, since his entry, has done silly comedy films and, after a longtime once again did the same.Sr Naresh stole the show with his performance. He made an impact with his dialogue delivery, emotions, and expressions. His screen presence is good, and he entertained with his antics.Vennela Kishore is good in his role as Indra. Vishnu Priya, Prisha Singh, and Rashi Singh are ok in the roles of Rambha, Oorvasi, and Menaka.Rashi Singh got limited screen presence. She didn't get much scope to show her acting talent. Tarak Ponnappa is ok in the role of the antagonist.There are many actors like Kalyani Raj, Shiju, Hari Teja, Goparaju Ramana, Goparaju Vijay, RK.Mama, Rachi Ravi, Ravi Siva Teja, and they got blink-and-miss roles.Rambha Oorvasi Menaka(2026) Movie: Technicians ReviewRambha Oorvasi Menaka story is penned by Chandramohan Chitanda. The story is similar to many old films like Yamaleela and others. Though there is scope to generate comedy, he failed to do so. Though there are a few scenes and youthful dialogues, none of them worked due to cliched scenes and outdated narration.Chota K Prasad's editing left a lot to be desired. There are many scenes that are repetitive, and the predictable plot and weak script made the masters worse.Raam Reddy's cinematography and Chaitan Bharadwaj's music and background score are in sync with the story, and they are extremely outdated.Dialogues have an old flavor, and a few are hilarious. Production values are just average.Rambha Oorvasi Menaka Movie: Advantages<ul><li>Allari Naresh, Srinivas Reddy, Sr Naresh</li><li>Few Hilarious Scenes</li></ul>Rambha Oorvasi Menaka Movie: Disadvantages<ul><li>Predictable Story</li></ul>Rambha Oorvasi Menaka(2026) Movie: Rating AnalysisAltogether, Rambha Oorvasi Menaka is cringe to the core. Allari Naresh tried to return back to the comedy genre, and keeping in view director Chandra Mohan readies the story. But the problem is, Allari Naresh is stuck with the same 90s-era comedy, and the director also didn't try to come out of it. This resulted in a weak story, a silly screenplay, and listless direction. No amount of changes in the script and screenplay will change the output of the film. Considering all these elements, Cinejosh goes with a 2 rating for Rambha Oorvasi Menaka. &nbsp;
