What the critics say
Critics largely credit Jayam Ravi's performance, Sam CS's score and a fast, twisty revenge plot for keeping this cop thriller watchable, while pointing to a clichéd first half, one-dimensional villains, a pointless romance and a violent, gadget-heavy back half as its weak spots.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 5 readings; 4 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
