Saindhav Movie Review: 1st & 2nd Half Report

Saindhav 1st half: Decent

Director Sailesh Kolenu skillfully intertwines the cartel business with a mafia backdrop on one end and delves into the family side of Saindhav Kolenu, portrayed by Venkatesh, on the other. While there are some flaws in Venkatesh’s family characterization, occasionally lacking the natural drama touch, Saiko’s version successfully brings engaging moments to the mafia action plot.

The confrontation scene with Mukesh Rushi emerges as a standout, showcasing the film’s strength. The on-screen chemistry between Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Andrea Jeremiah adds a refreshing touch to the conventional antagonist characterizations.

The buildup to Saiko’s characterization is promising, but the director might face a challenging task in convincing the audience with the backend story. If this aspect clicks in the later half, the film holds the potential for a captivating experience.

Shraddha Srinath and Baby Sara deliver commendable performances in their respective

Saindhav 2nd half: Below Average

Well, the director ventured into new territory with this film, deviating from typical revenge stories. However, the emotional aspect fell short, despite stylishly executed action sequences. A more concentrated effort on the sentimental side could have enhanced the connection with the audience, as what transpires on screen primarily revolves around stylish cars, impressive weaponry, and action. On a positive note, Santosh Narayan’s background score leaves a lasting impression.

Note:* It’s a personal opinion. It will not be based on it’s film run or the talk on the other side.
