Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Story Review

Chandrayaan story revolves around three youngsters who pass time listlessly in their village and how their lives change when they decided to achieve something different to surprise all.

Three underachieving youngsters in Mandamarri decide to build a rocket and travel to the moon, launching their own space program with experiments that include sending a chicken into space.

Shiva (Shiva Kumar Dheekonda), Ravi (Ravi Shiva Teja) and Raju (Vamsidhar) are mocked by the people in their village as bad omen as the moment they enter, they virtually spoil everywork. Shiva falls in love with a beautiful girl Bindu (Swapna Priyadarshini) and seeing him flirting her, she makes fun of him and this triggers his ego and the three friends along with the child Chinna (Lokesh Murukuth) plan a secret mission. What is the secret mission and how it impacts the lives of all including the Indo-Pak relations, should be watched on the screen.

Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Artists Review

Shiva Kumar Dheekonda, Ravi Shiva Teja and Vamsidhar performed well in the roles of the village youngsters who enjoy life in a listless manner. Their body language and makeup are in sync with their characters. Their dialogues and Telangana accent are natural and realistic.

They came up with natural and realistic performances. Swapna Priyadarshini is fine in her role. Lokesh Murukuth is good in his role. Others performed according to their roles.

Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Technicians Review

Chandrayaan, a film written and directed by Srinath Chandrasekhar, tries to merge fun and innocence in a rural setup, dealing with three young boys aspiring to travel to the moon. Undoubtedly, the idea is very good and leaves a lot of space for many entertaining instances. Though the movie has some good concepts, the presentation is rather dull. Innocence of the young boys and their efforts to make a rocket are fairly entertaining in the first half, but narration of the film pales in the second half with a few dragged parts and rather dull screenplay.

The music by Harsha Praveen is alright, and background score matches the mood and setting of the film. Srinivasa B should be credited for his excellent camera work for presenting the rustic milieu of the village in a natural way. Editing by D. Pullarao could have been better, as few sequences hamper the pace of narration. Yet, the movie does have some strong scenes where editing could not have done anything much in spite of good production quality of the film.

Chandrayaan(2026) Movie: Rating Analysis

Altogether, Chandrayaan fails in its attempt to entertain. Director Srinath Chandrasekhar planned to generate fun through the innocence of village youngsters but he failed in his attempt miserably. The scenes lacked the strong emotions and the entire screenplay treads in a listless direction. The direction did not inspire confidence. One gets a feeling that even 80s soap operas are better as the director with a small point, ended up dragging the narration, stretching it to the optimum. People are left wondering how the project went to sets and what made Venu Udugula to present the film. Considering all these points, Cinejosh goes with a 1.5 rating for Chandrayaan.
