What the critics say
Critics praise Dulquer Salman's career-best performance and the fresh, original premise about critics and filmmakers, but many flag a predictable second-half reveal, sagging pacing and an uneven, not-fully-realised payoff.

Derived by Filmi
32
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; 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.
