Month Of Madhu Movie Review : A deep dive into human connections and emotional turmoil – In “Month of Madhu,” director Srikanth Nagothi masterfully weaves a tale of unexpected connections and personal discovery that delves into the intricate nuances of human relationships. The story unfolds as it explores the lives of three central characters—Madhumathi, Madhusudhan, and Lekha. Spanning two decades, the narrative captures their struggles and journeys of self-discovery. Naveen Chandra’s portrayal of Madhusudhan is both powerful and poignant, effectively portraying a man torn between his flaws and the desire to salvage his failing marriage. Swathi Reddy brings depth to her character Lekha, portraying a woman on a quest for fulfillment in her relationships. Shreya Navile infuses her character Madhumati with youthful curiosity and rebellion, adding authenticity to her role.
The deliberate pacing of the film encourages introspection but may test the patience of the audience. Srikanth Nagothi’s dialogues resonate with emotional depth, prompting viewers to contemplate the complexities of human emotions. However, while the execution is commendable, it falls just short of achieving seamless brilliance.

The character of Madhusudhan’s friend, portrayed by Harsha, injects humor into the narrative. Yet, some of the strong language used in their conversations, while contextually fitting, may make some viewers uncomfortable. The conversations between Madhu and Harsha, especially during their moments of shared vulnerability against the backdrop of Vizag port, reveal the stark reality of these characters.
Supporting roles are played effectively by Manjula Ghattamaneni, Gnaneswari Kandregula, Raja Chembolu, Raja Ravindra, Rudra Raghav, Ruchita Sadineni, Mourya Siddavaram, Kancherapalem Kishore, and others.
Achu Rajamani’s musical score provides a melodic backdrop, intensifying the emotional impact of the story. Cinematographer Rajeev Dharavat skillfully captures the essence of Vizag’s landscapes, enhancing the film’s visual appeal.
