Bha Bha Ba movie review: An ambitious comeback of Dileep fails to impress

Bha Bha Ba review

Bha Bha Ba, the newest Malayalam movie with Dileep and a significant cameo by Mohanlal, came out in theaters and got a lot of attention and divided reviews.

Reports claim that the movie did well at the box office, making more than Rs 6 crore on its first day. The celebration got a lot better because Mohanlal was there.

A lot of people came to see it initially, but the movie is not very consistent. It wants to be crazy and know that it's insane, but it doesn't always find a steady beat.

Dhananjay Shankar's Bha Bha Ba is a mix of humour, action, and criticism that strives to be both a meta and a satire. In a ridiculous plan that involves laxatives and double agents, the main character, whose name is not given, kidnaps the chief minister of Kerala.

The movie knows what it is from the outset and calls itself a 'riot of chaos and comedic excess.' But that energy quickly transforms into something bad. There are a lot of jokes, cameos, and side stories, but it's hard to find the main message or emotional core. Characters come and go without changing anything, and things that happen often feel like they were planned instead of happening naturally.

The plot of Bha Bha Ba is also very weak. There are a lot of alterations to the script, and there is a lot of slapstick and ironic humor to make up for the fact that the tale isn't very deep. There are points when the movie could have been funny or smart, but those parts seem random or out of place, which makes it hard for people to understand what the movie is truly about.

The way the story is told is confusing instead of helpful, especially when it looks to be about real-life problems with the main character or hints at commentary. It's hard to pay attention and not as entertaining because the funny bits and abrupt shifts in mood are blended together.

Dileep plays a guy that is very active and over the top. Some people, on the other hand, think that his representation isn't funny or insightful enough to make the weird subject better. Vineeth and Dhyan Sreenivasan, who play supporting characters, make things funny from time to time, but their parts don't change the overall impression of being disconnected.

People are talking a lot about Mohanlal's little role in the movie. A lot of people were thrilled to see him, which helped bring in a lot of people on the first day. But many other individuals say that the look doesn't truly help the tale or fix the movie's structural flaws.

There are some truly excellent and unique parts of Bha Bha Ba. The photography and memorable scenes, like the combat scenes before the break, show off a lot of style. But a story that doesn't always make sense can't be saved by wonderful photos.

Some critics also stated that the vibrant music made the tone worse instead of better. It looks like the movie is loud but not very deep.

In general, Bha Bha Ba is a huge project with problems. If you want a well-written tale or a very humorous comedy, the movie might seem like a squandered chance.
