Suyash V Nov 3 Annapoorani had the potential to be a strong, inspiring story — but it ends up being deeply disappointing. The writing feels confused and forced, and the film completely loses its emotional connection halfway through. What’s most upsetting is the careless way cultural and traditional elements are portrayed. Instead of showing respect or depth, the movie twists them for drama, which feels insensitive and unnecessary. Many viewers expected South Indian cinema to handle such themes more thoughtfully — but sadly, Annapoorani falls into the same trap as many bollywood films. ⭐ Rating: 0/5 — A wasted opportunity that fails both in story and cultural respect. See more Venkat P 01/11/2024 Acting is below sub par standards. Heroine looked very old inspite of makeup. Slow paced narration, boring, time waste movie. See more Anish s 01/11/2024 False representation of a religion, spreading hatred and just a bad movie overall. See more Read all reviews
