What the critics say
Critics call Aramm a taut, ground-realistic rescue drama built around a career-best, glamour-free Nayanthara performance, praising its craft and social relevance despite a slow first half and an occasional preachy, documentary-like streak.

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 6 readings; 3 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.
