Description: The hypnotic hum of a vintage television set, flickering images of a melodramatic soap opera – this is the unsettling prelude to Praveen Kandregula’s ‘Subham.’ Set in the nostalgic, pre-internet landscape of early 2000s Bheemili, the film masterfully uses the eerie simplicity of the era to amplify its unsettling premise. Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Harshith Malgireddy, and Srinivas Gavireddy deliver nuanced performances, capturing the escalating anxieties of a community grappling with a phenomenon as inexplicable as it is terrifying. 'Subham' isn't just a horror story; it's a poignant exploration of faith, community bonds, and the power of collective delusion in a world starved for connection. The director skillfully weaves a tapestry of suspense and social commentary, leaving you questioning the boundaries between reality and the hypnotic pull of mass media. This isn't just a film to watch; it's a mystery to unravel.
