Review : Ganga – Only for the masses
Starring :Raghava Lawrence, Taapsee, Nithya Menen
Raghava Lawrence is back with Ganga which is the third part of his famous Muni franchise. Starring Taapsee as the female lead, this film has hit the screens today. Let’s see how it is.
Story:-
Raghava(Lawrence) is a cameraman with Green TV, and is very scared of ghosts. One fine day, he is posted alongside his creative director Nandini (Taapsee) to cover a story based on a haunting guest house. He along with his unit reaches the place and starts shooting for their television show.
Twist in the tale arises when Taapsee finds a sacred thread and starts experiencing weird incidents around her. Very soon, she gets possessed by an evil spirit which also keeps troubling Raghava. Who is this evil spirit? What does it have to do with Nandini and Ragahava? That forms the rest of the story.
Plus Points :-
Lawrence scores brownie points for both his direction and acting skills. He is pretty decent in his role and showcases decent comedy timing. All his scenes with Kovai Sarala evoke superb comedy. Taapsee sheds her bubbly girl image and delivers a knock out punch with Ganga. She impresses in a tough role and is the main stay during the first half.
Nithya Menen is pretty good in the role of an handicapped girl and brings a lot of relief whenever she is on screen. The way Lawrence has executed her character in the second half is very good.
First half of the film has hilarious comedy which compliments the well executed horror elements. Once again, Kovai Sarala impresses in her role and gives funny expressions during the horror scenes.
