#Kuberaa Dhanush and Nag screen presence is the highlight. First half Sekhar Kammula sambavam! #blockbusterkuberaa — Guru (@Gurukalanji) June 20, 2025
Barring the last 10 minutes, #Kuberaa 's second half is terrific. #ShekharKammula delivers a gripping ride, but seems unsure how to land the climax. the ending either lost in translation or simply it doesn't take away from the overall impact. What unfolds…
