Story:
When a minor girl is assaulted, it raises serious questions that neither the authorities nor society can afford to ignore. Euphoria attempts to explore these uncomfortable but important issues and attempts to convey a relevant message.
Performances:
Bhumika Chawla plays the central role and makes a sincere effort to step into the character. But a stronger script could have helped her performance leave a deeper impact. Sara Arjun plays a crucial role and leaves a strong impression despite her limited screen time. Gautham Menon is suitable as a police officer, though his dubbing has a few noticeable flaws. Debutant Vignesh Gavireddy delivers a confident and promising performance.

What Works:
Euphoria tries to convey an important message about parental responsibility, especially when children grow up spoiled and difficult to control. The film also highlights issues such as drug abuse among youngsters and the careless attitude of parents who give their children everything they ask for. The first half begins on a strong note and maintains its intensity until the interval. Despite a few unsettling moments, the narrative remains engaging in the first half.

What Doesn’t Work:
The second half of Euphoria completely loses its way. The sudden change in Bhumika Chawla’s character feels unconvincing, and the narrative runs out of focus, introducing subplots that add little value. The attempt to show the redemption of a rapist, along with episodes involving a drug racket and illogical legal proceedings such as parole, fails to make any impact. While the idea behind the climax is appreciable, it arrives too late to rescue the film.

Euphoria Review And Verdict:
Director Gunasekhar’s Euphoria aims to convey an honest, thought-provoking message.
While the first half manages to engage the audience reasonably well, the film completely loses its way in the second half, which feels contrived and directionless.
