What the critics say
Critics say Varun Tej's performance, the cinematography and music carry this villain-focused remake of Jigarthanda, but the screenplay drags with forced comedy, so fans expecting typical Harish Shankar mass-masala may be disappointed.

Derived by Filmi
50
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 3 readings; 2 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.
