Kelavu Dinagala Nanthara

A group of five friends who work in a software company set out on a journey to scenic Chandrapura to get a break from the hustle and bustle of life in Bengaluru, and to celebrate the wedding anniversary of their friend Swathi. The roller coaster ride which begins well with fun banter starts getting into trouble when they encounter some strange incidents on their journey. Despite all the hurdles, they manage to reach the lodge safely, albeit while at loggerheads with the people whom they dropped there.
In the second half, panic sets in among all characters after they experience the presence of ghost which makes them to run amok in a thick forest. Everyone starts searching for the other, which leaves the group in complete disarray. Somehow, they manage to regroup and get into a car. But will they reach their destination safely? Do they unravel the reason behind the unusual experiences or are they paying the price for their own deeds?
Kelavu Dinagala Nanthara, touted as a horror thriller fails to keep one on the edge-of-the-seat. Director Srini has tried to blend horror with comedy, and the movie falls flat without having enough meat in the story. The message in the climax is the only solace. The CGI created baby truly instills fear.The background score and the songs fail to lift the story. The comic sequences, much of which are double entendres don't evoke laughter. Shubha Poonja excels in her role as a bubbly girl. Newbies Khiladi Lokesh, Dravya and Sonu make their presence felt. Majaa Talkies Pavan has done a commendable job for his character, which has grey shades. Go and watch it only if you are a huge fan of horror thrillers.
