What the critics say

Critics mostly agree Blast's action choreography, Ravi Basrur's score and Preity Mukhundhan's breakout performance carry a fun family martial-arts entertainer, though several flag a weaker, more generic back half.

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 8 readings; 4 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.
