Social Media Reviews: Dileep's Bha Bha Ba A Strictly Average Commercial Flick With Plenty Of Old Movie References
Actor Dileep’s new film Bha Bha Ba — an acronym for Bhayam, Bhakthi, Bahumanam — hit the big screen on Thursday, with filmgoers divided on whether to go to the theaters or not as public outrage continues over his acquittal in a sexual assault case involving a Malayalam actress survivor.
