It is easy to overlook the technical prowess of Pachadlela because of its comedic elements, but for 2004, the visual effects were ambitious. The prosthetic makeup for the possessed characters, the set design of the ruined theater, and the lighting created a genuine "spooky season" aesthetic that Marathi cinema hadn't really seen before.
