‘Bimbisara’ review: Intriguing Kalyan Ram’s film that needed a tighter treatment

Bimbisara is not an ordinary period film. It seems as if debutant director Mallidi Vassishta built a theme park period narrative around an idea that is straight out of his childhood fantasy. What seems like a period time-travel film that puts on the guise of a masala hero-vehicle, acquires heft with Nandamuri Kalyan Ram’s presence.

In retrospect, these sequences actually do no justice to what good is to follow. Storyline: Bimbisara, a ruthless king f...
