Critics largely praise this raw, riveting revenge drama for a career-best Dhanush performance and Vetrimaaran's assured direction, though some flag a predictable second half, lip-sync issues and intense violence.

Derived by Filmi
52
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.
