Featured reviews
Munjya is a new installment in Stree horror universe and is a light horror comedy which gives you good blend of horror, comedy and drama.
The story was good and simple, the screenplay could have been little bit better as the editing was not crisp, the direction was average and the performances were decent as it was not upto the mark. The reveal of suspense in first half hour was a bad idea as the suspense elements dies so early into the movie. Also, the climax portion felt little bit stretched. Other than that, it had good comedy and horror elements enough to entertain you.
Overall, you should give this movie a try as even with some flaws it will not fail to entertain you.

Start and Middle of the movie is very good and character are very strong .
Cheers to VFX teams creating that hunted character and voice too.
VFX, Cinematography , locations and cast all good and impressive to watch .
Movie started with great start , indulging the audience. Connecting the characters and showcase of past and present .
As we progress we movie was good , all the dots where connecting and here comes the downfall, when u want the movie to end and see what happened next but ironically movie started dragging and making it hard to finish the movie and boring .
Movie is one time watch.

Movie is one time watch.
It's a great time killer movie. You can watch it 2-3 times without getting bored. Some scenes made me remember movies such as Tumbbad and Kantara. It's based on Tantra Vidhya. There are surprises at the end. They are developing something very big and my expectations for the future has raised. I request the makers to please work on the story and writing. I want to be engaged each and every second I watch the next big thing you are going to create with all of this. Audience already have 3 movies on the same franchise. I am excited for the future. This is just getting more interesting. Also, don't believe the negative reviewers. They will just rate anything negative. I loved this movie. 7 out of 10.
Movie is very much entertaining and brings new content in Horror/Ghost version.
Keep in mind its a horror-comedy so it will lack in horror part for sure.
Highlighting part is acting-casting-locations-story telling
Casting suits perfectly coz some actors are regional which makes it much more relatable.
Further comedy is not forced and its natural. Not cringe jokes or movie reference jokes
Plus making this universe such a diversified urges you to want some more.
From east side of India in Bhediya to Munjya in Maharashtra ...Hats off ...
Hope to see the logical and entertaining connection with other movies of this universe.

Munjya, the latest entrant in the horror-comedy universe, offers a blend of spooky thrills and light-hearted moments, though it falls short of the standards set by "Stree" and "Bhediya." But, it still manages to be a marginally better watch than "Roohi." Munjya is not the perfect horror comedy, but it brings something new to the table. A blend of horror and comedy is well supported by some effective CGI work that brings the ghostly elements to life.
Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, who is known for his impressive work in Marathi cinema, "Munjya" stands out with its unique script and engaging narrative. The film's story, while intriguing, is somewhat let down by its uneven execution. The first half has a few loose ends that might leave audiences scratching their heads, but the second half picks up the pace, delivering a captivating experience. Saurabh Goswami's cinematography successfully creates a spooky atmosphere that complements the film's tone. The background music score and VFX are other highlights.
The cast of Munjya delivers commendable performances, despite the film's weaker star power compared to its genre counterparts. Abhay Verma shines as Bittu, convincingly portraying the character's fear. Sharvari impresses with her acting too. Sathyaraj, as the quirky godman, delivers an amusing performance, and Taranjot Singh provides many laughs as well. Mona Singh, though given limited screen time, is effortlessly impactful in her scenes. One of the film's highlights is its end-credit scene, following the Taras song. Do not miss it!
