    For sure, Raat Akeli Hai isn't only about the writing and the acting. The other inputs, too, are of the highest order. The film is lit and lensed with exceptional skill by cinematographer Pankaj Kumar. Every frame, composed with precise purpose, serves to accentuate or regulate the moment and its defining mood. And the editing by A. Sreekar Prasad is so masterful that not a minute of the two-and-a-half-hour film feels expendable.

    A few of the bits and pieces in Raat Akeli Hai feel a bit contrived, but not enough to take the enjoyment away from a film which has a terrific sense of time and place, and a crime in which everyone has stakes.

    Raat Akeli Hai sends you on a wild goose chase, exploring the shady dealings between the police-politicians nexus in UP and a rich, reputable family fighting for relevance in their small community. As the secrets start tumbling out, the story gets darker, making you question who you really side with, and whose motivations you believe.

    Raat Akeli Hai is a sincere attempt but it isn’t engaging enough for you to feel the joy of solving a murderous puzzle or detective riddles.

    All said and done, Raat Akeli Hai is one of the better whodunnit thrillers out there. Despite the dark undertone throughout, there aren’t really any dull moments. An intriguing watch!

    Ratings:.2.75/5 Review By: Venkat Arikatla Site: Greatandhra

    The film scores in showing the lifestyle of tribal town Araku, the simplicity of the characters, the innocence of the people there. Director Venkatesh Maha seems to have followed the same original in its essence and screenplay.

    On the whole, Uma Maheshwara Ugra Roopasya is an earthy village drama that has some amazing performances. Satyadev single-handedly carries the film with his brilliant act and the first hour is pretty engaging. But a predictable second half and rushed up climax, makes things a bit dull. If you are one who does not mind the slow pace, this film ends as a passable watch during this lockdown period.

    Overall, Uma Maheshwar Rao is a faithful remake that is a gripping and engaging watch, for the most part. It leaves us with a satisfying feeling, in the end, making it an easy one-time watch.

    Is this film as good as C/o Kancharapalem is a question that might be on many minds, especially seeing as how both are slice-of-life dramas. Maha ensures to make this film his own, even if the source material isn’t his and the effort shows, especially when characters discuss about bamboo chicken losing its authenticity and collect mustard flowers that Araku is dotted with in a particular season.

    The director must be appreciated for making the necessary changes to the film, to make the story suit the nativity of Telugu audiences. The film has Araku as a backdrop. The dialogues in the story are very good and provoke thought. The realistic way of making the movie is good.

    Sacred Games 2 Reviews By Critics

    Ratings: 4/5 Review By: Saibal Chatterjee Site: NDTV

    Taken as a whole, the eight new episodes of the Netflix original series not only measure up to what was always going to be a hard act to follow, but also, in many ways, improve upon the build-up that was crafted with style and precision in Season 1. Sacred Games Season 2 delivers a dynamic tale that harnesses the flexible power of the source material to not only entertain but also to provoke and disturb.

    Since this is a Netflix show, each episode ends with a cliffhanger, almost to a point of being predictable. The violence and expletives are omnipresent; it has almost become a grammar, a tadka of the series. You're curious enough to want to put the jigsaw pieces of the plot together, and invested enough to have favourites, but Sacred Games season 2 teases you; it wants you dive deeper and show you that no character is really "good" or "bad" in the face of danger.

    The second season of Sacred Games is viler, looser, freer and consequently better than the first. Season Two is nicely nuts through and through and so, it feels like one piece. Multitudes emerge in characters and turn them richer.

    The wait was worth it. Sacred Games 2 is far bigger and better than the previous season. The making of Ganesh Gaitonde has everything you would expect from a classic Netflix tale, and more. Which means, you’re in for a thrilling time, and this one could put Indian storytellers on the world map.
    Like the first season, this one can also be accused of wrapping and presenting cheap thrills in the name of a thriller, but it’s perfectly mounted and is one of the best shows on Netflix. In fact, it may become another Narcos or Money Heist for the streaming app. India couldn’t have given it a better Launchpad.

    Ratings:4/5 Review By: Proma Khosla Site: Mashable

    The game is afoot (again). Netflix India's Sacred Games is back for a second season, this time expanding beyond the novel by Vikram Chandra and into the turbulent territory of the unknown blazed by Big Little Lies, The Handmaid's Tale, and Game of Thrones.
    And out there, it holds its own.
    Not that Sacred Games Season 2 is the revelation its predecessor was, or that it necessarily justifies its existence in the way that show-based-on-book sequels don't even bother trying to. But it remains a gripping mystery, an embarrassment of riches when it comes to showcasing Indian actors, and part of the growing mountain of exceptional Indian television that burst onto the scene last year.
