Peddi

• A Film can be Good • A Film can be Bad Either outcome will satisfy the audience in one way or the other But • A Film should never be Good Only In Parts, such an outcome satisfies nobody. THAT'S THE OUTCOME/CURSE OF PEDDI. Peddi mostly works only on an idea level and…

The firepower loaded RRR trio in Ram Charan - Rahman - Rathnavelu come all cylinders blazing, but sadly the tiring screenplay drags Peddi all the way down to mediocre zone. Peddi aspires to be an emotional rural sports drama, exploring themes of identity, social dignity…

This movie doesn't really have any logic. Scenes just come and go without any flow, and the screenplay feels all over the place. At one point, Janhvi Kapoor suddenly appears out of nowhere. A lot of unnecessary scenes are stretched out for no reason. For me, the only thing…
