After her portrayals of strong, larger-than-life, meaningful characters in Arundhati, Rudhramadevi and Baahubali, Tollywood’s favourite warrior princess, Anushka Shetty is back with a horror thriller movie Bhaagamathie. Bhaagamathie is a trilingual movie directed by the talented G. Ashok and boasts of a stellar star-cast including Murali Sharma, Prabhas Sreenu, UnniMukundan, Jayaram and AshaSarath.
The highlight of the movie is Anushka’s portrayal of two distinct characters – the charming IAS officer Chanchala caught in a political game and the ferocious, majestic – Bhaagamathie that is sure to mesmerize the audiences. The movie boasts of a unique narrative aided by an impressive screenplay with spine-chilling situations, elements of a thriller, unexpected twists and turns and a background score that propels the momentum further.
The movie revolves around Chanchala (AnushkaShetty), an IAS officer, who is in prison for murdering her fiancé. Few government officials decide to use her to dig up some dirt on Eeshwar Prasad (Jayaram), a minister with a clean image. CBI officer Vaishnavi Reddy (AshaSharath) transfers Chanchala from the prison to a rundown palace believed to be haunted by the ghost of Bhaagamathie, a cruel queen. The insides of the mansion are filled with dim lighting, moving doors and other spooky elements. Suddenly people are tossed around by puppets and it seems like Chanchala is possessed by a spirit. What follows next is a whirlwind journey, where temples, priceless antique idols, innocent villagers, conspiracy, dirty politics and above all an ancient folktale of an all-powerful queen is involved.
What is the story behind the majestic queen Bhaagamathie and the haunted palace? And who will win in this Chanchala v/s Bhaagamathie spooky war?
