Namo Bhoothathma 2, directed by V Murali, is an intolerable experience. Only for the sake of brilliant Kannada actor Komal Kumar who plays the protagonist keeps it watchable.

It kicks off with a horror scene which eventually turns out to be a prank video shot by the creative head (Komal Kumar) working at a local television entertainment channel.

Entertainment

Furious over being pranked, the two rowdies ransack the TV channel office and even beat up the employees in the absence of the hero and his sidekick (Govinde Gowda).

Entertainment

Fearing further consequences, the head of the TV channel sends his two pranksters along with two other employees to a haunted house for a few days until the matter cools down.

What follows next is a silly and intolerable experience, which even supernatural elements, if exist, would find boring to the core.

Entertainment

Komal Kumar, the younger brother of “Navarasa Nayaka” and Rajya Sabha MP Jaggesh, is the only saving grace of this film.

Entertainment

A majority of the humour written for Namo Bhoothathma 2 is no less of a laughing stock by itself. 

Entertainment

Distasteful scenes like that of a character who says, “Shall I rub you?” (while talking to a domestic help) and then swiftly changes it to referring to his golden ring, are in abundance.

Entertainment

There are two things to look out for Namo Bhoothathma 2. Firstly, Komal Kumar’s presence and acting. The other one is the climax which talks about the effects of serious pranks.
