Gopichand's 'Bhimaa', directed by A Harsha and produced by Sri Sathya Sai Arts, was released in theatres on March 8. The news is that it is currently available for streaming on Disney Plus Hostar.
The story of the action entertainer is set in a lawless land. A local mafia don named Bhavani (Mukesh Tiwari) is a rule unto himself there. He is into smuggling and butchers any cop who dares him. Bhimaa (Gopichand), a no-holds-barred and gutsy cop, enters the town and tames him in no time. But there is a bigger beast waiting to hit back at Bhimaa. The second half is about who this antagonist is, what are his motives, and how (and whether) Bhimaa sends him packing.
The film suffered from outdated content. "The performances are dull and uniformly so. Gopichand is ill at ease with his cop character, trying to fit into a role he was not cut out for. Priya Bhavani Shankar plays an over-talking girlfriend. Malavika Sharma's scenes with Bhimaa are embarrassing when they are not cringe," we opined in our review.
