Chettu Meeda Deyyam Naakem Bhayam Review
Story
Chettu Meeda Deyyam Naakem Bhayam revolves around Karthik, a curious youngster fascinated by paranormal mysteries. Along with a group of close friends, he travels to a deserted farmhouse in a remote village to investigate reports of supernatural activities.
What begins as an exciting adventure quickly turns into a frightening experience as the group encounters mysterious events, eerie sounds, and unexplained happenings. As the suspense deepens, Karthik tries to uncover the truth behind the haunted property and the spirit believed to be residing there. The film gradually reveals the mystery through a combination of horror, comedy, and suspense.
Performances
Tallada Sai Krishna wears two hats as both the lead actor and director, delivering a sincere performance. His comic timing stands out, while he also manages to carry the suspenseful moments effectively.
Madhuri Chiguru delivers a balanced performance with good screen presence, adding emotional depth where needed. Vijay Nittala, Balu Vangapandu, and the rest of the supporting cast provide solid support, with the friends’ comedy scenes generating several entertaining moments throughout the film.
What Works
- A good balance between horror and comedy.
- Entertaining comic sequences that keep the narrative lively.
- Mystery elements maintain audience curiosity.
- Haunted farmhouse backdrop creates an engaging atmosphere.
- The climax offers a few surprising twists.
What Could Have Been Better

Technical Review
Considering its limited budget, the film presents respectable production quality. The cinematography successfully captures the eerie mood, especially during nighttime sequences inside the farmhouse.
Lalith Kiran’s background score plays an important role in enhancing both suspense and horror, while the editing keeps the film moving at a comfortable pace. Tallada Sai Krishna’s direction deserves credit for maintaining a balance between comedy, mystery, and horror without letting any one element dominate the narrative.
