Our verdict
‘Shambhala’ is directed by Ugandhar Muni. The film stars Aadi Pudipeddi, Swasika, Archana Iyer, and Ravi Varma in important roles.Our ETimes review spoke about the performances and the film’s mood. It said, “Aadi Saikumar delivers a sincere and grounded performance, anchoring the film even when the narrative falters.” The review also added, “His restrained portrayal of a rational man navigating an irrational environment lends credibility to the film’s core conflict. The background score effectively amplifies the film’s mood and frequently compensates for narrative slack.”At the same time, the review pointed out the weakness too. It said, “Despite these strengths, the film ultimately feels weighed down by its sluggish screenplay.”Right now ‘Shambhala’ is moving forward with steady collections. The coming days will show how long it can hold on at the box office.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers in this article are compiled from our proprietary sources and diverse public data.
