What the critics say

Critics agree the familiar first-half romance drags and feels clichéd, but nearly all praise the interval twist and intense, emotional second half, with Harshith Reddy's performance, music and visuals singled out as highlights.

Derived by Filmi

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; 6 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.
