Family Star Movie Review: Vijay Deverakonda's Latest Film Receives Harsh Criticism

Geetha Govindam - Mrunal Thakur - Parasuram Petla - romantic drama - Vijay Deverakonda

Is 'Family Star' a star-crossed flop? Find out what the critics have to say about Vijay Deverakonda and Mrunal Thakur's new movie!

Vijay Deverakonda and Mrunal Thakur's much-anticipated film 'Family Star' has hit the screens, but the reviews are far from glowing. Parasuram Petla's directorial venture has been lambasted for its lackluster plot and uninspiring storyline that fails to engage viewers. Critics have pointed out that the movie feels like a poor imitation of Deverakonda's earlier hit, 'Geetha Govindam,' with messy writing and a wafer-thin plot.

Despite Deverakonda and Thakur's star power, 'Family Star' struggles to make a mark and falls short of expectations. The film, which attempts to explore themes of love and family relationships, ends up being a cringe-fest with forced moral messages. Deverakonda's performance, though commendable in his earlier films, fails to shine in 'Family Star,' leaving audiences disappointed.

In the midst of all the criticism, one cannot ignore the fact that Vijay Deverakonda's choice of roles has been a topic of discussion. From his breakthrough role in 'Pelli Choopulu' to his recent ventures, Deverakonda's journey in the film industry has been both praised and scrutinized. Similarly, the chemistry between Deverakonda and Thakur, which had generated buzz before the movie's release, seems to have fallen flat on the big screen, leaving fans disappointed.

Despite the negative reviews, 'Family Star' has managed to create a buzz in the industry, with fans eagerly awaiting Deverakonda's next move. Whether the star duo will bounce back from this setback remains to be seen, but one thing is certain - the expectations were sky-high, and 'Family Star' has certainly left a lot to be desired.
