What the critics say

Critics largely praise Prithviraj and Suraj Venjaramoodu's performances in this gripping star-versus-fan ego clash, though several flag its underwritten, sometimes uncomfortable handling of women characters.

Derived by Filmi
65
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 5 readings; 4 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.
