"The Family Star: A Slow-Paced Family Drama That Tests Your Patience"
The Family Star, starring Vijay Deverakonda and Mrunal Thakur, fails to meet expectations as director Parasuram Petla's slow-paced narration, lack of emotional depth, and dearth of entertainment overshadow Deverakonda's credible performance and a promising interval twist. The film's lengthy runtime and cliched screenplay contribute to its overall lackluster impact, despite some engaging moments in the first half.
