Annapoorani

The movie is utter waste of time of 2 hours 30 mins more, highlight is if your are Brahmin but when you do namaz the biriyani comes out well 😂 Joke of the year so you will find all these kind of appeasement and demeaning particular culture.

The movie would have been really good if they would have Removed religion cultural things( at least by not hurting one religion and promoting other religion) and instead promoted how a girl child can achieve goals in any career she deserves/wishes to be

Utter waste waste of time please spend quality time with some other good movie

I would say movie is purposely made to hurt ones sentiments.

This is foolish movie with baseless story line. I am puzzled how lead actresses agreed to do this kind of movie. Simply appeasement to one community and showing disrespect to other communities.#Netflix movie selection team lost the mind in getting this kind off movie. Shame on #Netflix.

#Netflix team select right movies.

The Annaprna Movie is a nothing but a mockery on everything and misuse of the name what AnnaPurna stands for. It's nothing but an attack on anything remotely Hindu and glorification of preparing food sourced form violence on speechless souls - no medical, no environmental no economical justification at all - it s brutal attack on those who stand for non violence of all kinds - not sure what Ghandhi Foundations do or want now a days

Here is the true story of the contestant who refused to kill n cook but was allowed to use paneer instead of fish as a part of the contest: search google for "Indian chef refused to cook nonveg peta"

Brace yourselves for a cinematic masterpiece! This riveting film unfolds with a plot so exhilaratingly dull, it makes watching paint dry feel like a roller coaster ride. The characters? Oh, they're practically dripping with charisma, said no one ever.

Prepare to be swept away by the gripping screenplay that's as engaging as a blank wall. The plot twists are so mind-bogglingly hilarious; you'll question if you accidentally stumbled into a comedy instead of a cinematic marvel. And those dialogues? Well, let's just say Shakespeare would be green with envy.

As for the direction, it's a true blast from the past, bringing you the cutting-edge techniques of yesteryear. Move over, modern cinema! Nayanthara graces the screen looking like she stepped straight out of an AI-generated dream - because who needs real emotions anyway? Her performance, oh, it's a masterclass in monotony; forget about bringing anything new to the character, she's practically on repeat.

But fear not, dear viewer, because the production values are at least decent - if you consider "decent" a compliment. The cinematography? Oh, it's so fine that even your grandma's old home videos could give it a run for its money.

And the music? Well, it's the kind of dullness that could lull a caffeinated hummingbird into a deep slumber.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly and with overflowing enthusiasm, don't recommend this film. It's an absolute must-not-see for anyone who values their time and sanity.

"Annapoorani - The Goddess of Food" attempts to weave a narrative around the culinary journey of Nayanthara's character, Annapoorani, an aspiring chef born into an orthodox vegetarian Brahmin family. The film explores her defiance of family beliefs, her rise to becoming India's Best Chef, and the challenges she faces, including the loss of her sense of taste.

However, the movie struggles right from the start with its inconsistent storytelling and character development. Annapoorani's heightened taste buds, initially presented as a unique and essential aspect of her character, are underutilized, leaving the audience wondering about the significance of this trait. The family, portrayed as orthodox vegetarians, is abruptly transformed into villains, seemingly cruel for preventing their daughter from pursuing her passion for cooking.

The film takes a questionable turn as Annapoorani, facing the limitations of being a vegetarian chef, starts consuming non-vegetarian food. This narrative choice overlooks the rich tradition of vegetarian cuisine in India and the existence of acclaimed vegetarian restaurants, challenging the notion that meat-based dishes are essential for culinary completeness.

The forced inclusion of Hindu and Islamic ideals in the storytelling adds a layer of discomfort and comes across as unnecessary preaching. The film's climax, featuring a Burkha, a blind taste test, and dramatic elements, is criticized as one of the worst-written scenes, further contributing to the overall narrative disappointment.

Despite a talented cast, including Nayanthara, Sathyaraj, Jai Sampath, Achyuth Kumar, and Karthik Kumar, the characters feel uneasy and unconvincing in their roles. The performances are hindered by the film's one-dimensional characterizations and wasted potential.

"Annapoorani - The Goddess of Food" is ultimately marred by its inconsistent plot, questionable narrative choices, and underdeveloped characters. While it aims to explore the world of culinary passion and familial conflicts, the execution falls short, leaving the audience with a sense of disappointment and missed opportunities.
