Anushka Shetty wields vintage power in Krish's compelling effort

The thumping climax perhaps does justice to the aura that Anushka Shetty carries, and the star herself wields her power with aplomb in the film. This is only her second film in the last five years, meaning that she is very careful about what she takes on, and while this one's far from being flawless, it is certainly not forgettable.(more)

Just for few scenes

Ghaati is a revenge drama that works in parts. Anushka Shetty brings intensity to her role, and Vikram Prabhu makes a respectable debut, but the film suffers from weak writing and dull execution. A few characters could have been better developed. You can watch this film if you wish, but keeping expectations low is advisable.(more)

Anushka Shetty shines as rebel queen, but the film falls short

Ghaati begins with promise but never quite reaches it. Krish Jagarlamudi is no stranger to immersive storytelling in unusual settings, yet this time, the narrative is bound by formulaic beats, leaving the film less compelling than it could have been.(more)
