Rana Daggubati has announced a project that comes across as a parody. Titled Scary Picture, this one marks the coming together of Kangana Ranaut and our very own Ravi Babu (the director of Allari, Anasuya, and Avunu).
The combo is scary in keeping with the title. Ravi Babu has mostly delivered flops in the last ten years. From Aaviri to Adhugo, from Crrush (OTT release) to Razor...
Rana, otherwise a discerning producer, is counting on Ravi Babu's ability to tap into psychological fright. The director did succeed at it with Anasuya and Avunu. His creativity was off the charts in the case of Avunu 2. As for Kangana, she was comical rather than spooky in Chandramukhi 2.
Scary Picture is not deadly. Rather, it feels like a project that is dead on arrival. One hopes it is a horror-comedy. Many scenes made without self-awareness might just generate laughs.
