What the critics say

Critics praise Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor's performances in this trans-themed rom-com, but are split on execution: some call it tactful and entertaining, while others say jokey stereotypes and a weak final act undercut the subject, with one reviewer from the trans community calling it transphobic and harmful.

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 7 readings; 5 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.
