Caption: Entertaining Fantasy Drama

Verdict: On the whole, Bimbisara is a well-made fantasy drama with a solid backdrop and entertainment. Kalyan Ram gives his career-best performance and the narration is gripping. Apart from a few patchy scenes in the second half, this film has emotions, action, comedy, and good visuals that will be lapped by the
audience and ends as an interesting film to watch on the big screen. Go for it.

Rating : 3.25/5

Synopsis: Bimbisara, a Telugu fantasy action film written and directed by debutant Mallidi Vashist starring Nandamuri Kalyan Ram as the ancient king
Bimbisara alongside a slew of well-known actors, will surprise the audience with its grandeur, power-packed performances, epic background score and fantastic visuals. The movie's first half is a runaway hit, and the second half could have been better. Kalyan Ram as Bimbisara was brilliant probably his best
performance to date.

Rating : 3.5/5

Great Andhra

Despite not so rousing the second half, “Bimbisara” makes a decent watch for its grander setting and time-travel element. And the film is a better-made film among Kalyan Ram’s recent films.

Bottom Line : Mixed bag

Highlights: Time travel concept,Kalyan Ram,Grand visuals

Gulte

Bottom line : Box Office ki Aasara

Thumbs Up : Sci-fi storyline, Kalyan Ram, Keeravani music

Overall, Bimbisara is a storyline that has a new concept of time travel that starts good but slows down with routine narrative later on. With the sci-fi
storyline and Kalyan Ram’s performance, Bimbisara has got fair chance to impress the audience.

Rating : 3/5

Verdict :
'Bimbisara' is worth a watch. It mixes elements as diverse as redemption, expansionism, virtue vs vice, time-travel fantasy, and beyond. The visuals and writing make the mark.

Rating : 3/5

Caption: Intriguing film that needed a tighter treatment

Bimbisara is filled with intriguing ideas that could have made for an engaging watch. It's definitely a refreshing take on an age-old formula. However, the
screenplay struggles to get to its points throughout the film. Even when we see where an idea is leading, we are asked to wait for it until the drama finishes
unfolding. Add the unnecessary melodrama and the plotholes that the film doesn't address, it becomes a rather tedious watch. A tighter narrative would have
worked wonders.
