Raasi is back with an interesting thriller called Lanka. The film which is directed by her husband Sri Muni has hit the screens.
Swathi(Ina Saaha) is a Malayalam superstar who comes down to Hyderabad for her personal work. Right when the time comes for her to get back, she decides to act in a short film. The proceedings move to a guest house which is owned by Rebecca(Raasi). Things become quite tough for Swathi as Rebecca starts troubling her throughout the shoot with telepathy.
The twist in the tale arises when Swati goes missing from action and the cops automatically nab Rebecca. Why did Rebecca trouble Swathi?
The basic plot of the film is a bit interesting which deals with Telepathy. Raasi’s performance during the climax is pretty decent. Comedy generated by Satya and his friend evokes some laughs during the first half.
Supreet is okay as the strict cop. Production values of the film are pretty good. The first half has some decent moments as the script’s suspense in maintained for most of the time. Interval bang is decent.
when you think that the film is making some sense, a different scenario is created to bore the audience. Raasi’s performance during the police station scenes is so over the top and can you put off right away.The second half goes for a toss and twists keep coming one after the other.
Background score is just about okay and so was the art direction. Dialogues were decent but the camera work was pretty good.
Coming to the director Muni, his script on paper is good but his execution is horrible., Lanka is a film which could have been a lot better if it was executed in a simple way.
