What the critics say
Audience Score · not yet · appears once three readers have written a review
Critics largely praise Drishyam 2's twisty screenplay, strong background score and Ajay Devgn's performance (with Tabu and Akshaye Khanna singled out too), though many flag a slow first half and say it lands flattest for anyone who's already seen the Malayalam original.

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 15 readings; 10 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.
