Family Star review: Parasuram Petlas Vijay Deverakonda, Mrunal Thakur-starrer defies logic in a plot thats already wafer-thin...

Family Star review: When it was announced that Vijay Deverakonda was teaming up with director Parasuram Petla for the second time, many hoped they would recreate the magic of Geetha Govindam (2018)..

That film had its own issues, but Family Star struggles to make a mark or even entertain..

The plot of Family Star is so wafer-thin; you can see through it like one of the CGI dosas Govardhan makes for his nieces and nephews early on in the film..

While the core point of Family Star is Govardhans pursuit of giving his family a better life, a lot of the film also hinges on his love for Indu and vice-versa..
