#Bandra First Half :

Commercial movies rely highly on entertaining elements which are missing so far. The storyline is weak which limits the scope of performance and presentation. The setting up of 90s India and portraying #Tamannah as a Bollywood actress feels amateurish.… pic.twitter.com/4sBN5HqaQx

#Bandra first half : Cliched set up but making is decent. Heroism is not much exploited. Dileep and Tamannah good. Average so far. Need a solid second half. pic.twitter.com/29xGPMxaDC

Bandra is Dileep's 147th movie, and it signifies Tamannaah Bhatia's introduction to the Malayalam film arena. Arun Gopy, the director, mentioned that while the film's plot is fictional, it draws inspiration from a real-life incident.

#Bandra : A dull affair which is hugely relying on its cast and technical side. No surprises from UdayaKrishna as he is still stuck in 2000's. Arun Gopi's making is neat. DOP and visuals 👍 Good performances from Dileep and Tamannah. Dino Morea is typical. Ordinary pic.twitter.com/PuDtJDD1Ki

#Bandra Movie Review:

It is a big letdown in terms of scripting and presentation. While the first half is tolerable, the second half is messy as the movie strays away to random silly sub plots. There aren't enough episodes to draw a veil over the storyline, particularly the… pic.twitter.com/4poodHBRwu

#Bandra : Weak storyline and ordinary script. But Arun Gopi has tried to present it rich as possible. It's more of a serious drama than mass or action. Couple of heroic scenes have worked out well and rest flat. Dileep and Tamanna have done well. Below average flick pic.twitter.com/iQXWlhk8iO
