Wanted PanduGod Movie Review: The movie directed by Raghavendra Rao, starring Sudheer, Deepika Pillai, and Vishnu Priya, has gained positive attention for its Raghavendra Rao-branded music and humour. Today, August 19, 2022, the movie finally opened in theatres; without further ado, let’s read the review and determine whether it’s worth seeing.
Story
In the plot of Wanted PanduGod, a man named Pandu (Sunil) escapes from prison, leading the authorities to offer a reward of Rs. 1 crore to anyone who can catch him. In the meantime, Su (Sudheer) and D (Deepika Pillai) are working as reporters whose mission it is to keep the public informed of all the unfolding action as several groups discover about the reward and start looking for Pandu.

Movie Verdict
Dramatic and comedic themes that clash but don’t entail sin or sins Although Jabardast succeeds in these areas, Wanted: PanduGod lacks a cohesive and compelling tale and instead feels like an extended version of TV skits. There isn’t a single moment in the movie that makes you feel like you’re watching a movie. If we accept this premise, the movie will surely appeal to viewers who enjoy skits on small screens, and there are plenty of funny moments.
Wanted PanduGod is similar to a few Bollywood movies, such as Dhamaal and Golmaal, however the non-sinc humour that made such movies so popular in the past is ineffective in 2018. It’s great that the film’s cast of well-known TV actors bowed to Ragavendra Rao, but the director’s insistence on imprinting the movie with his own style results in a few awkward romantic numbers.
Each actor in the cast, including the protagonists Vishnu Priya and Deepika Pillai as well as supporting performers Anasuya, Sudheer, Saptagiri, Srinivas Reddy, and Vennela Kishore, did an outstanding job in their respective parts.
As a writer in his own right, Sreedhar Seepana struggled to hold our interest throughout the movie; Ragavendra Rao takes more of the limelight than he does.
The technical execution of Wanted PanduGod is mediocre; director Mahi Reddy Pandugula’s overly saturated graphics and composer P.rweak’s song and soundtrack detract from an otherwise acceptable picture, but the other technical departments made an effort to suit the film’s needs.
In the end, Wanted PanduGod is just a typical comedy-drama that will appeal only to viewers of TV parodies.
Rating: 2.5/5
