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 10 readings; 4 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. 4 reviews carried nothing usable and could not move the score. Rubric v2, computed 7 Sep 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.

Synopsis
People-pleasing cop Baby accepts a fake charge to get leave for her sister-in-law’s baby shower in Rewa. There, she reunites with her childhood friend Bansi, who is murdered that very night. Defying dismissive in-laws, an indifferent husband and an apathetic local police force, she secretly investigates the murder, uncovering family betrayals while finding her own voice, courage and place as a real cop.
