Trailer Talk: Intriguing Concept

The trailer of the hyped up digital debut of Akkineni Amala’s High Priestess is out. The first impression is not that positive though there are exciting factors.

Let’s begin on a brighter note, the trailer is intriguing no doubt, and it doesn’t reveal much. So much seems to be happening and indeed, no one can guess what it’s about besides what the makers reveal. The casting looks neat, and everyone acts seriously. Now, coming to the downside, the production values are not that good. There is an air of tackiness and feel of the whole thing being shot in a rushed manner. We have to wait until watching the entire product to decide though.

Check out the trailer below. High Priestess is a Zee5 original. Pushpa Ignatius directs the series which premieres online on April 25th.

Siddartha Toleti: Perennially besotted with movies, I can’t imagine a day going by without watching one. Passion led to film reviews. The evolution has brought me on the digital platform. Alternatively, I love listening to music from the golden era of Hindi cinema, and Maestro Ilaiyaraja.
