The Ghost Telugu Movie Review: For as far as anyone can remember, Akkineni Nagarjuna has been the type of actor to pick out the most creative scripts. He was the one who brought Ram Gopal Varma’s classic hit “Shiva” to the attention of the Indian cinema industry. Nagarjuna has always been encouraging of and willing to give work to up-and-coming directors, and he has given them the chance to helm his films on numerous occasions. Nagarjuna and the outstanding actor Praveen Sattaru teamed up for the new film “The Ghost.” Examining this film in greater detail will help us decide whether or not to take in a public showing.

Movie Verdict
The plot of The Ghost seems pretty simple and dated, but if the script and the sequences have any impact, the film could be entertaining. There are a few such moments in “The Ghost” that will likely strike a chord with viewers, but the film’s most dramatic sequences fail to make the audience experience the main character’s emotions or the agony that motivates him to beat the hell out of terrible people. A few stretches of the film are challenging to watch on screen due to the lack of a consistent narrative, but there are also several scenes that hold the audience’s attention. Perhaps the film’s climax would have been more satisfying if the audience had been more invested in Vikram’s backstory.
Nagarjuna Akkineni gives a strong performance as Vikram. His choice of scripts is to be commended, but his acting in these flicks is not up to his usual standard. Especially in action sequences, his doppelganger is always obvious. Gul Panag was outstanding in her role as the wealthy and protective Anu. In the coming years, Anikha Surendran will continue to excel in the film industry. Sonal Chauhan is pretty to look at, but she doesn’t deliver. Performers like Manish Chaudhari and Ravi Varma acted out their parts as the plot required.
In terms of technology, the Ghost appears to be enough. Both Saurabh’s Bharatt music and the musical score fit very well with the style. The cinematography by Mukesh is a strong point of the film. When things heat up to a chase or an action scene, the cinematography really shines. Action sequences directed by Dinesh Subbarayan and performed by Kecha Khamphadkee are among the film’s most talked-about highlights. The action was expertly orchestrated by these action directors, who also used body doubles in a number of shots.
The filmmaker, Praveen Sattaru, produces a wide variety of films, all of which are steadily improving in quality. The director’s production values were excellent, but he should have paid more attention to the dramatic moments that would have resonated with Telugu speakers.
The Ghost is a serviceable action thriller, but it falls short in terms of character development. However, the film’s action sequences are definitely worth seeing in a theatre.
