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, computed 7 Sep 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.

The Audience Score appears once three readers’ reviews have been read under the rubric — built from what people write, never from the rating numbers.

Synopsis
Giri and Raaji grew up together in a small village; their love and bonding also grew, but changing fortunes and misunderstandings drove them and their families apart. While Raaji moves ahead with her studies, Giri searches for his path through music with his village band. Life takes them in completely different directions until circumstances bring them face to face again. What really unfolds between them forms the rest of the story.
