Mirai Public Review: Teja Sajja’s Sci Fi Thriller Leaves Audiences Divided

Telugu actor Teja Sajja has made his return to cinemas with Mirai, a sci fi action thriller directed by Karthik Gattamneni and Anil Anand. The film brings together a strong cast with Manoj Kumar Manchu, Ritika Nayak, Shriya Saran, Jayaram and Jagapathi Babu in key roles. Early viewers have been sharing their thoughts online, with some calling it a wholesome watch filled with emotions, striking visuals and heartfelt themes of family and love. Manoj’s turn as the villain has also caught attention, with many praising the intensity he brought to the role.

At the same time, not everyone is convinced. A few felt the story got lost in too much focus on computer graphics and didn’t connect as strongly as expected. Mounted on a massive budget of 60 crore and shot across 125 days, Mirai carries big scale ambition but seems to have left audiences split in opinion. Scroll down to see more of what netizens are saying about the film.

The amount of people praising #MIRAI despite a terrible VFX and mediocre storytelling tells you the state of the Indian film industry. 🤦‍♂️

Whenever #Mirai is focussed on its core theme, its still fun to watch until…Another detour with silly characters and unfunny punchlines commences!
