Our critic call It 'Works in parts'

The ETimes review offers a balanced take on the film by noting, “Vennela Kishore, Sunil, and Muralidhar shoulder much of the comic load and succeed in generating laughs, though some stretches feel extended, with jokes occasionally leaning on current trends rather than organic humour.”The review further adds, “Comedian Satya fares well in the first half but has little impact later. Overall, Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi works in parts, largely because of its comedy. With a thin storyline and an uneven second half, it remains an average, one-time watch.” Our review highlights that 'BMW' is a decent entertainer.BMW’s mix of family-friendly humour and festival-paced storytelling is expected to find more audiences after it's OTT release.Ravi Teja will be next seen in the upcoming family action entertainer 'Irumudi' directed by Kishore Tirumala. Ravi Teja was last seen in 'Mass Jathara'.
