Audience Score · not yet · appears once three readers have written a review
Critics mostly agree Fahadh and the child lead's chemistry carries the film, but call the writing predictable and the second half slow, dragging, or underwritten, leaving it a one-time watch at best.

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 19 readings; 8 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.
