How is it (Dead Pixels Review In Telugu)?

What is Bhargav's problem with his father? What finally happened? It should be known by watching the series.
Dead Pixels Web Series Analysis:
'I thought the game was meant to be played when there was no work. Do you avoid doing things like this and play too much?' - A character question to the hero in 'Dead Pixels'! Then 'revenge, do you know what revenge can do to us?' He answers. 'On whom?' That means 'with the person who challenged you online'. 'Revenge with someone whose name you don't even know?' If you ask... 'There is nothing else in my life!' (except gaming) he says. All this conversation will come in the fifth episode starting!
Even in 'Dead Pixels' there is nothing but gaming. What is this gaming that has already stopped working? What are they doing? If you have doubts like... you are not really connected with the series! A series or a movie...everything has a target audience. Who is the target audience of 'Dead Pixels'? If you think about it... gamers!
If they want to watch this series... they should be able to create more interest than gaming. Give a kick beyond that. Are there so many in 'Dead Pixels'? That means no. Does the remake connect with the local audience? Or? Is there a nativity? Or? It should be seen. The makers of the series seem to have forgotten that point.

From the start of the 'Dead Pixels' series, there is a feeling that it is going smoothly. Neither the scenes nor the game are interesting. But... there are some comedy scenes in between. Production values are okay. Most of the scenes are shot in an apartment or an office.
The camera work is neat. If it is ok for the audience watching English and Hindi series, how much will the Telugu OTT audience receive some scenes? It should be seen. There is no vulgarity anywhere but the content in the scene & a dialogue spoken by a nebulous character are very less likely to be liked by the audience.
Dead Pixels Web Series Actors Performance:
Niharika Konidela's typical dialogue delivery. Comedy timing is very peculiar. That acting was set for Gayatri's role. Akshay Lagusani did method acting. Lived in the role of a young man addicted to the game. Audiences expect a lot of comedy from Viva Harsha. He did not get a chance to do comedy in 'Dead Pixels'. Bhavna has done justice to her character. Sai Ronak has done some scenes well as the dull-witted young man.
Finally what? : 'Dead Pixels' lacks interest-generating gaming. It lacks emotional content & connectivity. Does video gaming have anything to do with people who are glued to computer screens like crazy and play too many games!? Do they identify themselves in those characters!? Others can take the light.
