Debut Director hits the nail hard
nanirockzzzzzzz20 March 2023
Though the director is a debutant, he has made the film excellently on par with experienced directors. The actors and technicians supported the director's vision in a grand manner and overall the output of the film is truly commendable. Right from the writing of the story to the dialogues to the framing to the music to the colours to the performances everything seemed so much in place. The director succeeded in getting what is required from all the departments. It is a great job done by the director on his debut. The production values are rich and the lead actors performed well in their roles.

Great movie
ratanthakur-559952 March 2023
Thanks for the special screening organized by the producers. I missed this movie in the theatres during its initial release. However, I'm glad I made it to the special screenings. The movie is great and has all its bones at the right place. It's a big fresh thali which brings a lots of freshness into the rotten thriller genre. It is definitely a new age thriller and brings a lot of new genre contemporary issues into the limelight. The hero Sudhakar needs to applauded for the outstanding performance right in his debut film. The director did a decent job by making a thriller genre film in for his debut. All others were good enough.

A rare film
sowmyakosuru2 March 2023
This movie is definitely a different entertainment thriller. The movie is both different as well as entertaining. The director did a pretty decent job in preparing a good story, however the director could not make a proper delivery of converting the story into a good film as the screenplay is a big lengthier and has a lot of lag. The movie needs to be cut short and trimmed to make it a bit more interesting. The casting choices made were brilliant by the director. The lead actor performed as per the scope of the character and the actress Lavanya appeared decent. The technical and production values are excellent.

Loved the movie throughout
harikasharma-895662 March 2023
This is an out and out crime drama thriller. If you are a fan of crime thrillers, you will love this one for sure. The story has been executed very well and the lead actors justified their role upto their limits. The background music by Sandeep is still ringing in my ears. The lead actor Sudhakar has done a phenomenal job and delivered a very mature performance. Eagerly waiting for the sequel of this film. All other characters supported the story in a well deserved manner. Watching this film in theatres was refreshing compared to the boring films that are coming out these days. Looking forward for the digital release.

A very gripping screenplay and an intriguing narration
kumarswamy-060041 March 2023
The movie Am Aha has a very gripping screenplay from the moment go till the last scene. The screenplay writing has been excellent by placing all the twists and turns in the right place. The technical values are brilliant. The camera work and the editing have complimented the story and the direction prowess. A very well drafted story and an engaging screenplay makes this movie a worthable watch for the audience. The engaging background music makes this movie a gripping watch. However, the editing should have been slightly better and the length should have been trimmed a bit. Apart from it, this movie is for you.

Scitillating Performances
rajpillay-827961 March 2023
The lead actor nailed the performance. The story is meticulously planned and screenplay played a major role in the narration. The director very well executed the plot line with good twists and turns. Its definitely an edge of the seat thriller for everyone who likes thriller movies. This is a different type of thriller as the tagline goes and it definitely is worth your time. The actress has a little role to play and performed well in her space. All the other actors did their jobs well. The technical aspects are on par and the production values are rich. The producers have neatly invested on a good cinema.

Worth your time
ranjithavarma2 March 2023
Thriller movies are an ever green watch option for movie lovers. The way these thriller movies keep your engrossed and place you at the edge of your seat is amazing. Just like the definition of a true thriller movie, this director has kept the audience gripped and amazed until the last climax twist has been revealed. The camera work is extraordinary and the colours used are out of the box. All the artists did an amazing job and the performance by the lead actors Sudhakar and Lavanya is really commendable. As music plays a vital job in a thriller movie, the music given by Sandeep is noteworthy.

Nice story and Ok Direction
pratyushagudem2 March 2023
Am Aha releases with the tagline "A Different Entertaining Thriller." The movie is surely a thriller but it is hardly different and barely entertaining. The movie is entertaining in bits and pieces. If you can join those dots and watch the film, it is surely an entertaining film. Though the plot looks routine, it moves a little sketchy in the screenplay making it a fairly engaging watch. Though the director tried his best to make the plot look fresh, the routine scenes have made it look a very routine. The music and camera work tried to bring the movie a fresh look and the actors supported the cause well.

Should reach more people than it is reaching now
kiranmanish-015061 March 2023
This movie is a mater piece. If you are a fan of crime thrillers, then this is your go to movie and should be your favourite binge watch. The way the director introduced the plot to how he took it to the climax is amazing. The lead actor Sudhakar has done a great job in his debut. The debut actor seemed much more confident for his experience and the way he pulled out the role with ease is very fascinating. The actress Lavanya has a limited role and has shone in her character. The music director has given some good tunes and at the same time has given an enthralling background score. The camera work is decent. Overall it is an extraordinary film made by ordinary people.

Super
jpavankumarreddy27 February 2023
Nice Thriller and good suspense. Worth watching. Background music is good and great direction.

After a long time a dark thriller had been out in the Telugu film industry. The director had perfectly crafted out the story for the opening of intense thriller universe. He didn't manipulate things too much. Entire screenplay was gripping and also with less manipulations of story. There wasn't a feel of confusion and all I felt was thrill. Even the actors gave out their best performances. Overall a must watch. Jangam Sudhakar and Lavanya-starrer 'Am Aha' was released in theatres today. Touted to be a murder mystery, the film also stars Siri Khanakan, Ramaraju, Ravi Prakash, Rajashri Nair, Duvvasi Mohan,

Good Homework with okay execution
diwakarfernandez3 March 2023
The homework done behind executing this movie is satisfactory. The story is very well drafted and the production values planned are extraordinary, but the execution is slightly not up to the mark. The director stammered at places in delivering the content in the rightful manner. The actors both Sudhakar and Lavanya did a pretty decent job. All the other side actors also performed well in their capacity. The music director did a pretty decent job. The camera work is extraordinary and the locations are pretty good. The colours of the film were really out of the box. You can watch it once for the interesting thriller.

A Passable watch
milindrajan2 March 2023
The plot of the film is excellently written, but the direction failed the subject. The actors tried to do a decent job, but could not put the act together. The main aspects of executing failed miserably as they fail to make you sit and watch the film for the full runtime. The movie deviated from its pace and soul sometimes but comes back to its genre again. The music work should have been slightly better and editing should have saved the audience by trimming the length. The only respite is the camera work which is pleasing to the eyes. The lead actor pulls off the entire film on his shoulders.

A one time watch for time pass
simhaproddutur4 March 2023
The thriller has been extraordinarily executed by keeping all the thrills, twists and turns in the right place. The lead actor Sudhakar carried the movie on his shoulder through out. He did an excellent job as the lead actor in the film. The lead actress Lavanya performed decently in her limited character. The other supporting characters were okay while the audience feel that few unnecessary comedy scenes should have been trimmed for better viewing experience. The music given by the music director is excellent and gripping as per the requirement of the scene. The production values by the production house is decent.

Unbelievable Screenplay
ramanchowdhary2 March 2023
The strong backbone of the film is its gripping narration. Right from the title card of the film till the end card, the director keeps you glued to the film through his gripping screenplay. The story has few loopholes here and there, but the screenplay keeps the audience engaged from the beginning till the end. The lead actor Sudhakar is a great asset to the film. He has outperformed the other characters and delivered a matured and decent performance on his debut. Actress Lavanya has done a decent job. Not talking much about the screenplay wonders here as it needs to be witnessed while you watch the movie.

Amazing screenplay powered by amazing acting.
ranjithmarkande8 March 2023
First thing that needs to be appreciated about this film is its screenplay. The way the director converted the script onto the film is really commendable and appreciable. Within the first few minutes of the film itself, the director takes you into his world crime drama. You literally sit in the world of the director and witness the scenes happening. The actors did a very complimenting job and have supported the director's vision very strongly. Special mention to the lead actor Sudhakar for pulling off such multi dimensional role with so much ease in his debut film. The lead actress Lavanya has a decent role. Overall, it is a very good watch for crime drama lovers.

Looks Colourful, but is a bit boring
naikbheemakishan2 March 2023
The movie is made on a very colourful scale, all kudos to the cameraman for the outstanding colours used. The director has got a good story to make, but however, he fails at times to make the movie work. He is brilliant as a storyteller but failed at parts to keep the twists and turns engaging. The first half of the movie is very engaging while the second half falls flat. The movie is quite engaging at times but goes on to be bit boring as the story proceeds further. The actors did a decent job in delivering the characters written for them. The supporting characters also were taken care of. Give it a try.

Well written storyline
premjyothi-799332 March 2023
Director Shyam Mandala looked like an experienced storyteller right in his first movie itself. The way he has executed the story is truly commendable. The Producer has really made this project into a very good project. The production values are high and the producers have spent extravagantly on this project. The budget was clearly seen on the screen and the director made the right use of the budget given by the producer. The lead actors did a decent performance. The music and camera work were fair enough. The engaging screenplay and the gripping narration stand as the highlights of the film. Must watch!

Slow at places but keep your intrigued
upadhyayricha-720762 March 2023
The overall film seems to be a good plot, but the narration has been slow at many instances which tests your patience levels and makes you want to leave the theatre. But barring those instances the rest of the movie is a good watch with few interesting elements and few contemporary issues. The pace of the movie should have been worked a little more, that's my only complaint. The life of the movie is in the last 30 minutes of the movie. Brilliantly executed and flawlessly enacted by the lead cast during those scenes. If you get a chance to watch this movie, please do watch it without fail and you will fall in love with it.

Extraordinary narration for an ordinary story.
richasamuel4 March 2023
There is nothing special about the story. It is a routine thriller which has few hidden twists and thrills like any other thriller film. However the direction and the screenplay elevated this routine story into a very good film. Thanks to the producers for the special screenings arranged. I had the chance to experience this film on the big screen. The director has meticulously planned every scene and ensured that it is converted onto the big screen in a great way. The lead actors Sudhakar and Lavanya did a very decent job as per their characters. The cameraman is the unseen hero of the film. You should give this movie a watch.

Brilliant on paper, failure on screen
yashikasukumar4 March 2023
The story given by the writer has been extraordinary, but the director failed to execute the story on screen. The scenes were not converted in the best way possible. However. Even if the story is commendable, it will not be bearable unless it is seen good on screen that is where the team has failed. The cameraman and the music director tried to rescue the film with their technical skills, but it could not save the audience at all. It is easily acceptable to skip this movie rather than wasting your time. The only respite is the colours used in the film which look appealing to the eyes with rich quality.

Boring Watch
ravikishorepattam2 March 2023
There is nothing commendable about this movie. The story is weak, the screenplay is boring and the narration is sleepy. Though the actors seems talented, but there was no scope for them to perform. The director failed miserably in establishing the plot and working out on the theme of the movie. The plot takes off well but it does not land well. The audience are taken for a patience test as they watch the film. The music seemed okay and gripping at times. The camera work seemed to save us a bit with new colours. Editing work is decent. Production values are rich and the producers spent good money on a failure project.

Plot of the filim was good but the way of execution was failed .
cherrytaya17 September 2022
About filim and hero everyone is aware so iam coming directly to point.

Cinema started with crime scenes ,vilan introduction was differently tried and executed good.but when it comes to introduction of hero it's a little bit disappointing bcz as he is new hero and this is his first filim that introduction of hero should not be like this but some audiance will accept it it's ok.when it comes to hero while he is facing such a tough situations the hero failed to show his acting,the dialogues was good but the deapth of dialogues was not shown in hero face,here plot of story was good but the direction was not good didn't reached the audience so well.hero have to focus more on acting he want to be more confident on him self.hero character was elevated but hero is unable to show it .other senior actors were good they played their role well good ,they made audiance to sit that's it.

One time watch
kavyavoleti2 March 2023
The movie does not do justice to the plotline that has been mentioned which says, "A different entertaining thriller." The movie is neither different nor entertaining. It is a one time watch with a passable story line. The one time watch is also only justified for the hardwork put in by the debutants, otherwise this film is totally not recommended. The lead actor is the only bearable aspect of the film otherwise the casting is also pale. Sudhakar did a fantastic job as a debut actor. He has created a good base for himself in the film industry with his talent. The music and camera work looked okayish.
