Story - D/o Prasad Rao: Kanabadutaledhu review

Prasad Rao (Rajeev Kanakala) is a grocery store owner who belongs to the Chittoor district. He has a daughter named Swathi (Vasanthika) and is a well educated girl in the family. Swathi gets a job in Hyderabad, but Prasad Rao primarily hesitates to send her. After the request of family members and relatives, in the end, they agree.

Prasad Rao accompanies his daughter and supports her in settling in a hostel in Hyderabad. After one month, Swathi goes missing, and the news quickly becomes the top headline of the news. Several suspects make it really challenging for the police to crack the mystery.

Performances of the actors

● Rajeev Kanakala acts as the emotional backbone of the series. His picture of a helpless yet determined father works well. It is particularly in strong emotional scenes.

● Udaya Bhanu works as the investigating officer, calling the maturity and restraint to her role.

● Vasanthika, though restricted by the screen time, works out convincingly and helps establish the moving stakes early on.

The critics note that the performances elevate the show even when the writing turns predictable.

● Strong emotional core focused on the family relationships

● Engaging idea with several twists

● Crisp runtime over six episodes

● Thought-provoking dialogues as well as emotional moments

What actually does not work?

● Feeling of repetitive episode

● The episode of the investigation could have been tighter

● Several twists feel familiar to seasoned thriller viewers
