Description: Bhamakalapam (2022) is a Telugu film that unfolds with a gripping storyline. In the opening moments, it subtly echoes the essence of the 2018 Hindi film *Andhadhun*, though the resemblance is minimal. A seemingly ordinary event—a lamb crossing the road—leads to a car accident, setting off a chain of unexpected events. The narrative centers on Anupama Mohan, portrayed by Priyamani, a homemaker and YouTuber celebrated for her culinary expertise. However, her life takes a dramatic turn when she’s forced to use her skills for darker pursuits.
The story is a mix of crime and humor, with laugh-out-loud moments interspersed with suspenseful twists. While it doesn’t directly mirror *Andhadhun*, *Bhamakalapam* thrives in a similar space, blending macabre crime with comedy.
Priyamani delivers a stellar performance as Anupama, capturing the character’s nosy yet endearing nature. Even while filming her cooking videos, she can’t resist prying into her neighbors’ affairs. Early in the film, her attempt to uncover a neighbor’s extramarital relationship backfires hilariously, leaving her red-faced. She vows to her husband, Pradeep Rudra, to refrain from snooping, but destiny has other plans for her.
Anupama’s curiosity leads her down a path filled with crime, chaos, and unexpected revelations, making *Bhamakalapam* a compelling watch.
