Another episode, another “definition of cinema” 💀
In this Paisa Vasool episode, Sravan and Tarun review Akhanda 2: Thaandavam — starring Nandamuri Balakrishna, directed by Boyapati Srinu, with music by Thaman.
We went in expecting Boyapati-level physics to be illegal… but what we got was a 3-hour loudspeaker assault, a plot that keeps inventing itself to justify runtime, and a second half that swerves from mass action into devotional + patriotic + bio-warfare madness (yes, really).
We discuss:
Drop your thoughts below — did you enjoy the chaos, or did your ears file a lawsuit?
Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Kjgns0zjUJU
00:34 – Welcome back + another Balayya film
01:10 – Akhanda 2 setup: Boyapati, Thaman, sequel continuation
01:59 – Budget talk (200 cr) + “highest Balayya budget”
02:26 – Release delay + producer financial issues
03:18 – First reactions: “Not good… worst of the year?”
04:02 – Only positive: background score (but too loud)
04:07 – Sound levels discussion (asked cinema twice)
05:25 – Boyapati logic / meme-level action physics
06:12 – Main issue: thin story stretched to 3 hours
06:52 – Two Balakrishna characters + one is pointless
07:27 – Villain overload + unnecessary subplots
08:16 – Intermission stretch was okay
08:30 – Balayya barely appears in first half
08:48 – Second half goes in weird directions
09:29 – Why this fails vs “good-bad” entertainers
09:42 – Becomes devotional + patriotic + out of place
11:14 – Runtime + unnecessary song
12:44 – Monologues → fight → repeat structure
13:20 – Boyapati worst-movie comparisons
14:41 – Suspension of disbelief (Marvel vs Boyapati)
15:38 – Dubbing/acting problems (daughter, Chinese character, others)
16:36 – Spoilers start: IQ 227 daughter discussion
18:02 – Bio-warfare plot: virus in the Ganga to destroy belief
19:06 – Vaccine logic + self-injection madness
20:06 – Villains show up and die (+ Adi Pinisetty)
21:15 – Pragya Jaiswal character killed off (and barely mentioned)
22:08 – Tank impalement + “border place” + “kill him mercilessly”
23:30 – Random electric suit goons + unstoppable Akhanda
24:40 – Small positive: Balayya plays closer to his age
25:36 – Balayya vs Chiranjeevi recent output discussion
26:27 – Next review tease + where to reach us

In this Paisa Vasool episode, Sravan and Tarun unpack Teja Sajja’s latest fantasy–adventure Mirai. We cover the film’s ambitious world-building, the mythological elements, Manchu Manoj’s loud and eccentric villain performance, the uneven comedy track, the VFX quality, and how Mirai compares to Hanu-Man.
We also talk about why the OTT response was so different from theatres, whether the film justifies the beginning of a cinematic universe, and what the Rana post-credit scene might mean.
If you’ve watched Mirai, let us know your thoughts — did the fantasy–superhero formula work for you?

To celebrate the excitement around SSMB29, Paisa Vasool revisits one of Mahesh Babu’s most debated films — Khaleja — joined by our special guest Kireeti.
We break down how Khaleja went from a mixed theatrical release to a cult classic, whether the “misunderstood masterpiece” label is deserved, and how Trivikram’s writing holds up today.
We cover:
• The bold supernatural concept
• Why the execution is uneven
• Mahesh’s rare comedic performance
• Anushka’s characterisation
• Mani Sharma’s standout background score
• Whether the film deserved its cult reputation
• How it compares to Athadu, Okkadu, Pokiri & more
• Our personal Mahesh Babu rankings
A fun nostalgia deep-dive for fans counting down to SSMB29.

In this Paisa Vasool episode we review They Call Him OG — a stylish, elevation-driven Pawan Kalyan vehicle from director Sujeeth. We cover what works (music, mood, a slick Japanese/Yakuza flavor, a few standout set-pieces) and what doesn’t (a thin plot, limited Pawan screen time, an “unstoppable” hero with low stakes, and a villain who never feels dangerous). We also discuss how scheduling/production constraints shaped the film, compare it with this year’s big Telugu releases, and look at Sujeeth’s next move.

A first for Paisa Vasool: our debut Malayalam review! We dive into Dominic Arun’s bold, world-building kickoff “Lokah: Chapter 1 – Chandra” — from the airtight writing and moody neo-noir vibe to Jakes Bejoy’s thumping score and Kalyani Priyadarshan’s powerhouse lead turn. We talk scale vs. budget, why the pacing never drags, where the folklore hooks land, and how those two mid/post-credit stingers set up the larger Lokah Universe.

🚂 Superstar Rajinikanth teams up with Lokesh Kanagaraj in Coolie — one of the year’s most hyped Tamil releases. But did it live up to expectations?
In this episode of Paisa Vasool, Sravan and Tarun break down the film’s highs and lows: Rajini’s screen presence, Anirudh’s score, underutilised stars, shaky logic, and why the second half completely derails. We also discuss Nagarjuna’s role, cameo overload, and where this leaves Lokesh after back-to-back disappointments.

Rewind to 2007 as we revisit Munna, the Prabhas starrer that had style, twists, and some seriously tight shirts. Joined by special guest and lifelong Munna fan Bhargava (aka Bujji), we dive into the film’s music, action, Prabhas’s fashion choices, and the twist-heavy final act. Is it an underrated gem or a relic of its time? We also rank our top 5 Prabhas films and relive some wild early-2000s Telugu cinema nostalgia.
🔊 Recorded before Kalki's release — but our love (or confusion) for this movie is timeless.

Is it bad? Is it ugly? It sure ain't good. Tune in as we unpack what might be the most absurd Tamil film we’ve reviewed yet.
