Vishwak Sen, who is known as Mass Ka Das is coming to entertain movie lovers with his film Gaami. The film directed by Vidyadhar Kagita is releasing on 8 March 2024. The film's teaser and trailer got good response and let us find out how Gaami enthralled movie lovers.
Gaami story is all about an Aghora and the happenings in his life. Shankar (Vishwak Sen) is an Aghora who gets banned by his cult due to a peculiar problem. He goes in search of his problem, what are his connections to doctor Janhvi (Chandini Chodhary ), Devadasi Durga (Abhinaya), her daughter Uma (Harika Pedda) in south India, where this leads to, what is the connection to research lab in Indo China border and Mali Patra that grows in 36 years in Dronagiri, Himalayas , form the rest of the proceedings.
Vishwak Sen is fine in the role of an Aghora. He should be complemented for trying out completely different role, staying away from regular mass elevations in the film.
Chandini Chowdary is good in the role of doctor. Abhinaya showed good emotions and expressions as a Devadasi. So too did Harika as her daughter. Others like Dayanand Reddy, Mohammad Samad, Shanti Rao performed according to their roles.
Gaami story readied by Vidyadhar Kagita touched upon various issues. He came up with an interesting and exciting plot. He starts the narration increasing the curiosity levels but soon he follows a non linear narration and this at times ends up confusing the viewers.
To avoid that he took his own sweet time, to narrate it in a detailed manner but in the process, the slow pace impacted the screenplay and direction. He showed the sub plots taking lot of time and people are left to wonder when the sub plots will be joined together.
In the midst of all this, the interval happens in a sudden and surprising manner. Viewers wait eagerly for the second half but it treads the similar pattern. For all the creativity and unique plot, the story lacks intense elements and donot take off to next level.
Naresh Kumaran's background music made a terrific impact. He elevated the scenes with thumping background score. Vishwanath Reddy Chelumalla, Rampy Nandigam's cinematography is breathtaking. The visuals are spectacular. However, the editing of Raghavendra Thrigun failed to make an impact. The slow pace ended up testing the patience of the movie lovers. Production values are grand.
Altogether, Gaami turns out to be novel but patience tester. Vidyadhar Kagita got an interesting story, Vishwak Sen came out of the box and tried something new and it has high technical values. But for all that, lack of intense elements and thrills undid everything. Considering all these aspects, Cinejosh goes with 2.25 rating for Gaami.
