The trailer for this movie was so well done it makes it difficult to ignore! And yet you had the feeling that there was a little more depth than you might expect. This film is first a character study and next a romance. Any movie that involves the viewers emotions always is a cut above the rest. Plenty of emotions here, wonderful soundtrack and fabulous acting. It was a very pleasant experience and one of the best films of the year! This film proves you don't need a giant budget to produce an excellent movie. At one point there were too many romantic movies in India. Now there are too many crime dramas!

I'm not sure why some Telugu movie critics didn't appreciate Bachhala Malli (2024)-perhaps it didn't meet their expectations. But personally, I found the movie to be quite good.

The story resonates deeply with people who have experienced similar struggles or pain, making it incredibly relatable. The emotions feel raw and authentic, which adds a unique depth to the narrative.

The performances were excellent-every actor brought their character to life, enhancing the overall impact of the story. All crafts, from direction to cinematography, were handled with care and added to the movie's appeal.

One standout aspect was the background score-it elevated the emotional moments and added intensity to key scenes, blending perfectly with the narrative. On the other hand, while two songs were truly memorable and captured the essence of the movie, the remaining tracks fell short of expectations.

Despite a few areas for improvement, this movie is worth watching for its strong performances, emotional storytelling, and excellent background score.

This movie reminded of Vedam in terms of emotional depth in Naresh's character. It starts off quite interestingly showing Bachala Malli (Naresh) as a drunkard and hard working person but also has short temper and gets into brawls frequently without thinking too much about consequences. The story goes back and forth to explore the protoganist's journey in the backdrop of 90's coastal Andhra.

All the cast did their job well, the story and the execution was decent. I felt the lag at times but Naresh keeps you hooked with his acting. It explores the sensitive human emotions like love, pride, arrogance and stubbornness.

Overall, it's a one time watchable movie.

Naresh Anna nailed his character and truly justified his character as malli. The story is not new, we can expect what is going to happen next. But I have seen him in these kind of highly emotional role for the first time, forgive me if he had done like this before :) I didnt like naresh anna at all in acting roles like frnd in maharshi and so on. He is a independent actor. I hope he stops doing those roles. Generally, he used to entertain us with comedy roles, because of my 1st time seeing him or idk, i literally felt the Malli character, the pain he has gone through. The way heroine fall for him is sudden, which is as usual like all cinemas. And also, amritha played the kaveri character beautifully, at least for me. Overall very nice movie for naresh. This is just my take, though-your opinion may differ!

This movie is a must-watch as it beautifully captures all emotions. Naresh delivers a deeply immersive performance, making his role truly unforgettable. His dedication is evident, especially in the last 5-10 minutes, which brought me to tears. Rao Ramesh also does a fantastic job in his role, adding depth to the narrative. The director has skillfully portrayed emotions throughout the film, making it a compelling experience. It's a perfect movie to watch with family, as it avoids excessive action or unnecessary fights. Despite having fewer songs, the film remains engaging and deeply impactful. MUST WATCH.

I am not interested in reading or writing reviews till now. But this movie deserves one.

Bheemili kabaddi jattu, Oy, shambo shiva shambo, gamyam, vedam... All the movies are best and the climax is emotional. This movie went deep in to my heart, couldn't stop me from crying.

Hero charector, father, mother, hero support charector and relatives charector etc, had acted cent percent perfect. I doubt that the movie team also might have cried well at climax.

I am anticipating a national award for Naresh garu and the other cast in the team. I feel sad as I couldn't watch this movie in theater, instead of prime. Next time onwards I will be watching his movies in theaters.

Action scenes are not like I see in old movies of the lead charector, such a powerful narration. Your father will be proud of you.

Literally keep doing movies like this, one day there will be a seperate fan crowd fir you sir.

"Bachhala Malli" is a cinematic masterpiece that truly tugs at the heartstrings. The story is deeply emotional and crafted with such brilliance that it keeps you engaged from start to finish. The characters are well-developed, and the performances are powerful, making you connect with every emotion they portray. The movie's simplicity, combined with its impactful narrative, makes it a rare gem. It's not just entertaining but also leaves a profound message that stays with you. For me, it's one of the top 10 movies I've ever seen. If you enjoy heartfelt stories with depth, this movie is a must-watch!

Bacchalla Malli" is a powerful exploration of human emotions, showcasing how anger, love, and familial discord can shape a person's life. Set in the 1990s, the story revolves around Malli, a promising young man whose life takes a dark turn after his father's second marriage creates chaos within the family. The narrative delves into Malli's struggles with resentment, self-destruction, and his complicated relationship with Kaveri, the one glimmer of hope in his turbulent journey.

The film excels in blending raw emotions with compelling storytelling, creating a deeply relatable yet heart-wrenching experience. Strong performances by the cast bring authenticity to the complex characters, while the cinematography captures the era's essence beautifully. The climax, filled with regret and redemption, leaves a lasting impact, making "Bacchalla Malli" a poignant reminder of how unchecked emotions can alter lives. A must-watch for fans of intense dramas with emotional depth.

"Bachalla Malli" is one of the most disappointing movies I've seen in recent times. The storytelling is weak and poorly executed, failing to create any sense of connection with the audience. The screenplay is disorganized and lacks engaging moments, making the entire movie feel like a drag. Emotional depth is completely missing, with key scenes falling flat and failing to evoke any response. The background music is another letdown, adding no impact or energy to the already dull scenes. With no gripping plot or memorable moments, the film struggles to hold attention and leaves viewers frustrated. Overall, "Bachalla Malli" is a waste of time.

Where do I even begin? Watching this movie was one of the most frustrating and underwhelming experiences of my life. The plot was so paper-thin it felt like the writers gave up halfway through-or maybe they never even started. The characters were flat, uninteresting, and entirely unrelatable, leaving no reason to care about their fates.

The pacing was absolutely horrendous; some scenes dragged on forever while others were so rushed that they barely made any sense. And don't even get me started on the dialogue-it was cringy, uninspired, and often made me wonder if they hired a chatbot to write it (and not a good one).

Visually, the movie was a mess. The CGI looked outdated, and the cinematography was bland and uninspired. It's almost like they tried to copy better movies but failed miserably at every turn. The soundtrack? Forgettable at best, annoying at worst.

To add insult to injury, the movie tries to be profound but ends up being pretentious instead. Whatever message they were going for was lost in a sea of clichés and nonsensical twists.

If you're thinking of watching this, don't. Save your time, your money, and your brain cells. This film is an embarrassment to cinema and deserves to be forgotten.

Rating: 1/10 (Only because I can't give it a 0).
