The Raja Saab suffers primarily from an identity crisis. What was conceived as a simple horror-comedy gradually morphs into a lavish fantasy, seemingly driven by the belief that a Pan-India star demands constant grandeur. This approach works against the film. Maruthi’s biggest strength has always been rooted storytelling and situational comedy, but here, he prioritizes scale over script. As a result, the narrative feels outdated, directionless, and emotionally hollow. The second half, in particular, tests patience with stretched scenes and unfocused conflicts. Excessive green-mat usage, even for basic sequences, further distances the audience from the story. Despite a talented cast and massive budget, the film fails to deliver a coherent or engaging experience. Prabhas’ attempt at a lighter entertainer ends up being neither an effective comedy nor a convincing fantasy.
Abhilash Dalapathi delivered a good performance as Vikram with excellent dialogue deliver. He shares great chemistry with Rashika Shetty, who plays his wife, Kavya. Their emotional scenes are powerful. Reshma V Gowda and Manohar Gowda also deliver strong supporting performances. The music was composed by Praveen Nikethan and it adds an emotional layer to the film, Similarly, Prashanth Sagar’s cinematography is visually pleasing as it captures the essence of the story well. One downside of the movie is its length. A trim of 10 to 15 minutes could have made it more engaging. Nimde Kathe is worth watching, especially for fans of socially relevant stories. Despite a long runtime, it has a strong message, good performances, and a solid story. A great debut for director Raghavendra Raj.

The performances in Parachute are commendable, especially from the younger actors. Shakthi Rithvik and Iyal, who play the roles of Varun and Rudra respectively, deliver natural and heartfelt performances. Kishore, in the role of Shanmugham, portrays the character with depth and nuance. His portrayal of a strict yet loving father is both relatable and endearing.
