Director: Vi Anand
A cursed valley, a search for missing answers, and a string of misfit companions collide in Ooru Peru Bhairavakona, a 2024 Telugu fantasy comedy built around a place that swallows the people who wander into it.
What is Ooru Peru Bhairavakona about?
The story follows a young man chasing down urgently needed answers that lead him straight into Bhairavakona, a remote region wrapped in local legend and, once entered, seemingly impossible to leave. As he pushes deeper, he crosses paths with a handful of other outsiders stuck in the same predicament, each with a reason for having come and a growing sense that something in the valley is actively working against them. Director Vi Anand leans into a mix of broad comedy and horror-adjacent mystery, using the trapped-in-one-place setup to build escalating, often absurd complications rather than a straightforward chase. Sundeep Kishan anchors the ensemble as the man at the center of the search, with Varsha Bollamma and Kavya Thapar rounding out a cast of characters whose overlapping goals keep bending the plot in new directions. The film runs a little over two hours and treats its fantasy premise as a launchpad for slapstick set pieces as much as suspense, so viewers looking for pure horror should expect the tone to swing frequently toward comedy.
