Devi/Abhinetri/Tutak Tutak Tutiya (2016): Prabhu Deva is not only a choreographer,he is also famous for his notable roles he done in Tamil and Telugu films.The body language, dance treat, spontaneous gestures and natural comedy of Prabhu Deva received huge fan following.But he became busy directing in Bollywood so he took almost a 10 year gap for his reentry as an actor with Devi(L).So how is this movie?

Plot: Krishna (Prabhudeva) dreams of marrying a posh girl who speaks good English but due to circumstances he is forced to marry Devi (Tamannah), a village girl Once the husband and wife settle in an apartment which is far-off to the main city, he notices that Devi starts behaving like a completely new person. It is later revealed that she is possessed by another girl named Ruby who died in the apartment.That girl's ambition is to become a film star and this new Devi meets movie superstar Raaj Khanna (Sonu Sood) who signs her and also falls in love with her. What happens then?

Plus Points:

1)Performances: Devi entirely belongs to Prabhu Deva and Tamannah.Prabhu Deva,who is back in front of the camera after more than a decade has lost none of his spontaneity and comic timing.Tamannaah plays two different characters with effortless ease transforming from a timid, insecure and unloved housewife to a bold and sexy, much-desired starlet out to conquer the world. RJ Balaji's comedy is good.Murali Sharma once again shined in a hilarious role.Sonu Sood is okay.

2)Music: Music is brilliant.Almost all the songs are catchy.Chall Maar and Mokka Mokka songs re brilliant.

3)Few scenes: Movie has entertaining scenes at few parts.We will never get bored in this movie except first 30 Min's.

4)Duration: Movie is just 2hr 3 min long which is the major plus point for this movie.

Minus Points:

1)Highly predictable: Movie has a very simple plot and screenplay.There are no surprises at any part of the movie.

2)First 30 Min's: After Chall Maar song,movie is outright silly for 20 Min's.Entire village episode is so boring and unnecessarily dragged.

So,Devi(L) is a passable entertainer with nice performances and brilliant music.A One Time Watch
