W/o Ram Review, Wife Of Ram Movie Review RatingsWhat is the film W/o Ram about?
A happy family outing turns into a tragedy when Ram dies in a valley. However, it is regarded as a selfie death in the valley when it was a murder. How Deeksha (Manchu Lakshmi) finds the killer and what happens, in the end, is what the film is all about?

How is Lakshmi Manchu’s performance?
Manchu Lakshmi has done better with far worse. Here she just goes through the proceedings without conveying the real emotion or pain. Everything is merely on the surface level with no depth. The subject had a lot of scope, but she fails to leave a mark.


W/o Ram Review, Wife Of Ram Movie Review RatingsDirection By Vijay Yelakanti?
Vijay Yelakanti making his debut with W/O Ram has come with a solid story and screenplay. The on-paper work seems to be fantastic. However, he suffers in the all-important department of direction and execution.

Right from the beginning, the movie has an engaging screenplay that one can understand if they simply look at the picture as a whole and how things have been put together. However, when one watches the movie, there are many moments and parts where one is totally disinterested in the proceedings.

Let’s take an example of the chain of events where the central character of Deeksha meets an escort, the whole sequence with the awkward tense and funny at the same time scenario could have worked out so well. But when we look at all that in the cinema, there is hardly any thrill or fun. The narrative engagement or grip is missing. This is just one easily identifiable example of weak direction. The movie is filled with many.

The only reason the movie works despite all the problems is the pre-climax and the climax that is sure to leave many surprised. One is bound to rethink the logic behind what just transpired, and realization occurs that part of it is genuinely valid even though one has been led on an entirely different path. Of course, there were hints, but that is too little in the larger scheme of things in the finale.

Overall, there is a suspense factor that works out very well, and that alone makes W/O Ram a sufferable but one time watch.


W/o Ram Review, Wife Of Ram Movie Review RatingsSamrat Reddy, Aadarsh Balakrishna and others?
The film has four main characters, and among them, three hold the importance besides Manchu Lakshmi. They are Priyadarshi, Srikanth Iyengar, Adarsh Balakrishna and Samrat Reddy. Priyadarshi and Srikanth have the more prominent role compared to the other two. Adarsh Balakrishna has his moment in the climax.

W/o Ram Review, Wife Of Ram Movie Review RatingsMusic and other departments?
The presence of music in a traditional sense is missing. The background score is fine. The editing is alright, but the cinematography could have been better. The writing gets better towards the end.

Though Manchu Lakshmi had been on and off with regard to the box-office output of her recent releases, she had proved herself that she has the knack for acting through small screen and a couple of decent performances in the films. From the promo material, ‘W/O Ram’ seemed to be one such film.

This concept based thriller has raised expectations with the content presented in the trailer. Needless to say, Manchu Lakshmi is in the centre of the proceedings with Priyadarshi playing a crucial role as a police officer. ‘Bigg Boss 1’ fame Adarsh and ‘Bigg Boss 2’ fame Samrat are also playing crucial characters in the movie.

We know that Lakshmi’s last few attempts had bombed big time like ‘Lakshmi Bomb’. The big question is, will she deliver this time? The movie is coming for a target audience and has a limited release in the United States. One has to see if director Vijay Yelakanti had come up with an intriguing thriller content for this concept-based movie.

It’s time for our all-inclusive ‘W/O Ram’ review from our mirchi9 team. Keep watching this space, folks!
