What the critics say
Audience Score · not yet · appears once three readers have written a review
Critics are split on Agadha, with most crediting Kamakshi Bhaskarla's performance, the cinematography and a strong first half, but many fault a predictable, cliched second half and shallow, cliched writing that keep it merely passable.

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 11 readings; 8 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.
