Ram Gopal Varma presented “Saaree,” directed by his assistant Giri Krishnakamal and produced by Ravi Shankar Verma, which hit theaters today. However, the film has failed to impress both audiences and critics.
Social media is buzzing with negative reactions, with many turning it into meme fodder. The audiences have slammed the film for its dull narration and exploitative portrayal of the female lead, calling it a lackluster attempt that falls flat on all fronts.
Aradhya Devi, a Kerala girl who stormed Instagram with her saree photoshoots, made her Telugu debut in this film. Like Varma’s obsession to showcase actresses in the most sensuous and glamorous poses, his protégé Giri Krishnakamal presents her in the same manner.
Satya Yadu played as a photographer who was obsessed with her beauty. The film tests the audience’s patience, and critics declared it boring. “Feeling sorry to have watched,” a fan wrote on social media. Despite the fact that the film gives a message about the perils of obsession with social media, the narration apparently is not engaging.
