Intlo Deyyam Nakem Bhayam (2016)

Naresh is a guitarist whose band barely earns enough to survive, so he and his friends hit on an easy scheme: pretend to be exorcists and charge frightened families to clear their homes of spirits. The trick works until they are hired for a large house where strange things really are happening, and the comic bluffing gives way to genuine scares as they try to learn what the spirit wants. The film is a horror comedy in the mould that was popular in Telugu cinema in the mid-2010s, built around Allari Naresh's comic timing, with Kruthika Jayakumar and Mouryani in the female leads. Director G. Nageswara Reddy had earlier worked with Naresh on comedies such as Seema Sastri.
