Ammu review: A chilling account of a woman standing up to ... (OTTplay)

The gripping thriller is a clarion call for women to end the vicious cycle of abuse in toxic marriages.

The filmmaker Charukesh Sekar smartly packages the film in the garb of a thriller and still offers impactful insights. A personal favourite in the film is the equation that Ammu and a beggar share at a railway station. Ammu is an important and equally engaging story of a woman refusing to be a mute victim in a toxic marriage, taking the viewers through several stages of her mental trauma. This is a commendable debut for Charukesh Sekar, he’s largely in control of the proceedings and drives his message across without pushing it down your throat. Of course, Aishwarya’s performance is enhanced because of Naveen Chandra’s brilliance in the shoes of a toxic, mean husband. However, it’s with the dull, convenient characterisation of Prabhu, the criminal that the film is found to be wanting. The film throws light on the various phases that a woman goes through in an abusive marriage and refuses to be simplistic. The absence of a strong regional flavour affects the film considerably too. Ammu is a story of a woman coming to terms with herself, prioritising her safety first. Director Charukesh Sekar tells his story skillfully, keeps his world compact and succeeds in transitioning from a drama to a thriller in the second hour (there are a few jerks, of course). The conflict is intriguing here as the man in her life is a cop, expected to safeguard the public but can’t even treat her wife as a human. When Ammu, in a temple, confesses that Ravi had slapped her once, the mother asks, ‘Did you do anything wrong?’ and the daughter responds, ‘Does that really matter?

Ammu Movie Review: An effectual portrayal about the fight for ... (Cinema Express)

Not long before did we see Darlings that took dark humour to tackle domestic violence, and with Ammu, one gets to see the internalised trauma of a survivor ...

A little more exploration into the mind of Ammu would have strengthened this film and made it an even more compelling narrative about women's empowerment. While the plot featuring Bobby Simha's Prabhu tries to sit well with the story, it also results in a lull in the screenplay. Another idea that is effectively communicated in Ammu is the woman's right over her body and reproductive nature. There is also a beautiful conversation between Ammu and her mother (Maala Parvathi) about the generational passing down of abuse. The film also deviates from the lazy route of making her turn a phoenix from the ashes overnight. There is one instance of Ammu relapsing to the pain of her loneliness.

'Ammu' review: A gripping tale of a domestic abuse victim's journey ... (Scroll.in)

Charukesh Sekar's Telugu-language film, starring Aishwarya Lekshmi, Naveen Chandra and Bobby Simha, is out on Amazon Prime Video.

Ammu is hardly the first woman to have confused toxic power for “love”. In another scene, Lekshmi’s face fills the screen as Ammu provides a justification for which she should leave Ravi as well as stay with him. If there is a sign for Ammu that the police inspector she is going to marry is a shady sort, this is it. The inimitable Bobby Simha is an excellent choice as the devil-may-care Prabhu, who gives Ammu the strength she needs to face her demons. Aishwarya Lekshmi’s consistently impressive performance is especially powerful in the moments when she depicts the dual states of self-awareness and self-loathing that mark her character. The Telugu-language Ammu, which has been premiered on Amazon Prime Video, eventually finds a solution for Ammu’s plight in the form of Prabhu (Bobby Simha), a paroled convict.

Ammu movie review: Aishwarya Lekshmi shines as a domestic abuse survivor in this refreshing take on the poignant and relevant issue from debutant director ...

As the helpless wife trying to muster courage to find a way out of her abusive marriage, Aishwarya plays her part so well. It is equally gutsy of Naveen Chandra to take up this character and he plays the menacing husband so convincingly. The rest of the story is about how Ammu deals with domestic violence and whether she succeeds in teaching her husband a lesson. The film beautifully talks about how women are conditioned to domestic abuse across generations and most have even accepted it as a way of life. It is quite brave of Aishwarya to headline such a project at a time when she can easily get away by playing the quintessential heroine. Ammu says she thinks she knows him and goes on to ask the girl why she would ask such a question.

He, however, is not able to meet the standards set by other actors in the industry. Naveen Chandra is sincere in the role of a dominating and abusive husband. She tries to internalise her character's trauma and lets her silences do the talking in several biting scenes. The writer 'tells' us a lot about his past but fails to 'show' us the same. She ties the knot with Ravi ( Naveen Chandra) and begins a new chapter in life. The film revolves around Ammu, a simple young woman who aspires to have a happy married life.

Just when Ammu is settling into the marriage and presumes that she is well acquainted with her new husband, she is jolted by a shock. The tonal shift is jarring and even feels dishonest to the very disturbing subject that it’s dealing with. Men are like that only.” To her credit, Kalpana advises Ammu to do what she thinks is the best. While domestic abuse is very much a reality and faced by millions of women across the world, it’s not always possible for a victim to come up with a clever ploy like Ammu’s to get even with her abuser. His reality, however, is revealed eventually and we find out that the persona of a perfect gentleman and a caring husband is an alter-ego that he has created to hide his sociopathic tendencies within the four walls of his house. She has been brought up in a conservative family and it is as good as it gets for a woman in her milieu — Ravi is a police circle inspector and a good match, as per her parents.

'Ammu' movie review: Aishwarya Lekshmi shines in poignant, yet ... (The Hindu)

Aishwarya Lekshmi and Naveen Chandra deliver fantastic performances, but director Charukesh Sekar's film still leaves you wanting more closure.

Despite its poor third act, the writing of the first two is such that you might still find yourself searching for answers and closure. We know little about Prabhu other than the fact that he killed two people, that he is on parole to attend her sister's wedding, and that he regrets the crimes he committed. Similarly, Naveen delivers quite an effective performance as Ravi; for instance, the scene where he pulls off a tremble on his cheeks when Ammu asks him a yes or no question. It works because this is how rapidly the world seems to have changed for Ammu as well, and this is a film that is meant to make one look from the eyes of the victim and not the perpetrator. the film gives us plenty to ponder about. We see the hands of a woman light up candles one by one; the light eventually reveals her to be Ammu (Aishwarya Lekshmi), a 25-year-old getting ready to meet her groom, Ravindranath.

Ammu Telugu Movie Review (123Telugu.com)

OTT Review : Ammu – Telugu movie on Amazon Prime Video ; Release Date : October 19, 2022 ; Starring: Aishwarya Lekshmi, Naveen Chandra, Bobby Simha, Raghu Babu, ...

On the whole, Ammu is a film that showcases the domestic violence against women in our society. Barring a few lags in the first half and a predictable storyline, the film is decent and can be streamed without any second thought. Bobby Simha’s role is brought in to help the heroine. The cinematography and music are fine, and the editing could have been crisp. Writing a few emotional scenes for Bobby Simha’s character could have made the film more engaging for the audience. The variations he showed in many scenes make the audience know what a capable actor he is. A proper reason should have been showcased for him to help the heroine. Aishwarya Lekshmi is the show stealer of Ammu. Some repeated scenes could have been trimmed to make the film a crisp one. Naveen Chandra delivers his finest performance as an egoistic and sadistic husband, who thinks it is his right to control his wife. The director Charukesh Sekar takes a good story that is relatable to the majority of people in our society. Amazon Prime Video’s first-ever Telugu original Ammu has created a good buzz with its teasers.
