Total zero. No surprise why this movie failed so badly. No proper message but pretending like a moral story in many scenes which is already seen in many old films, repeated masala wont work out and as many reviewers said it seems like a muslim appeasement movie which could have better avoided. Nayanthara makeup is too much in few scenes. Cooking film but cooking related is shown very little. In this ample of cooking techniqes, ideas and recipes they hardly choosed any. Waste of time. Nothing new. Could have passed the message with different concept. They failed in almost all the scenes. Even a failure movies few scenes would be thrilling and new but in this movie all are as usual. All the scenes are easily predictable. Some scenes seemed like power star comedy especially that namaz scene while cooking. Seriously, director has no knowledge at all. Evdn nayan acting seemed to be same like her previous movies. I skipped most of the scenes and finished watching this scene with in 20 to 30min. Overall very very boring hitech masala movie :))
Nonsense, what a nonsense concept to give false information without any commonsense. This is very bad that this movie is such a bad that rather than cooking this movie is defaming vegetarian and vegan. This is such a nasty way to give false information about god and religion which is inclusive. Shame on the director and writer. And actors who are doing this film, for money you can do anything i know. No any ethics. Shame. Shame. Shame.
This movie should be banned at the time of giving certificate. Such a shame to the people who pass this movie to cinema hall.
Once again shame to all the people associated with this movie. They should be punished too.

Waste of time. While watching this Movie on Netflix, it felt like Switching Off multiple times. But, I kept on watching till the time the final Competition came where Chef Nayantara had to unnecessarily show off by wearing Hijab to get feeling for preparing Biryani in the Competition. That point, I couldn't control the Movie propaganda anymore.
Strangely in the entire Movie, "a Muslim" was showcased as "Pandit" who knows much more about Hindu Culture, Traditions and Purana's than Purohit. Muslim guy is continuously brainwashing by quoting irrelevant Sanskrit quotes and misguiding for wrong deeds.
Is that really an Inspirational Story of a Girl wanting to be Chef?
No, it was reality of How conversions and brain washing is done nowadays!

I watched Annapoorani with high expectations, as I am a fan of Nayanthara and a lover of food. However, I was deeply disappointed and offended by the film, which I found to be a mockery of my culture and tradition. The film shows a Brahmin woman secretly reading recipes for non-vegetarian dishes, which are considered taboo by orthodox Brahmins. The film depicts a Muslim boy falling in love with a Brahmin girl, which is seen as a violation of their religious and social norms. The film mocks the Brahmin rituals and practices, such as wearing the sacred thread and chanting mantras. The film also has a predictable and cliched plot, with many convenient and unrealistic twists and turns. The film does not explore the culinary aspects of the story enough, and lacks the mouth-watering visuals of food that one would expect from a film about a chef. The film has some poor sensibility and logic-defying scenes, especially in the second half. I felt that the film was an insult to my beliefs and lifestyle, and I regret wasting my time and money on it. I would not recommend this film to anyone who respects their culture and tradition.
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.
