Review

Though treasure hunt is an old concept, the director added modern touches to the film which made it appealing. The film is like a puzzle and the director has unfolded the major twists in key areas making the film even more engaging. One of the major drawbacks is that some scenes are confusing and the scenes with no link or logic might irk the audience. However, the twists at regular intervals gives the audience so many factors to continue watching the film.  

Coming to the technicalities, the production values of the film are very good. The camerawork is outstanding. His camera angles, beautiful visuals made the film even more impressive. Also, the music played a key role in impressing the audience. 

Rakshit Shetty is the major plus point of this film and he carried the entire weight on his shoulders. His body language, dialogues, performance are top notch. Especially, the way he says 'Athade Srimannarayana' is too good and everytime he says that, there would be a surprising revelation in the story. Shanvi is good in her limited screen time. The rest of the actors also performed well.  

Verdict

'Athade Srimannarayana' is a gripping treasure hunt with a good plot, finest performances, captivating BGM and comedy.
