Aghathiyaa (2025) Movie: Artists Review

Jiiva played the role of the aspiring director with ease. His performance is good and so too are good emotions. Raashii Khanna is good but she got limited scope to perform. 

Arjun got more importance in the film and he did justice to the role. Rohini is fine in the role of the mother. 

Yogi Babu, VTV Ganesh are fine in their roles and others like Edward Sonnenblick, Indraja Shankar, Radha Ravi, Nizhalgal Ravi, Redin Kingsley performed according to the roles. 

Aghathiyaa (2025) Movie: Technicians Review

Aghathiyaa story readied by Pa. Ranjith tried to entertain viewers with super natural elements. Though he starts the narration in an interesting manner, he loses plot with in no time and from then on everything turns out to be cringe. 

Story turns out to be weak and screenplay just adopts a predictable line offering no real twists and turns. With Pa. Ranjith's direction turning uni dimensional, the actors just passed through the motions, diluting the entire theatrical experience. After all the routine, predictable and monotonous elements, the film ends, this bringing a relief to the torture underwent by the viewers. 

Yuvan Shankar Raja's music didn't make much impact and his background music failed to elevate the scenes. Deepak Kumar Padhy's cinematography is just ok. The editing of San Lokesh could have been more crispy. There are many scenes that turned repetitive. Dialogues are just ok and production values are average.

What is the most important factor in all, The movie makers have also shown negligence towards Telugu dubbing how much negligence to put the title in Telugu. It shows interest in the language of the makers but is their greed to make money for the Tollywood market.
