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 12 readings; 7 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2, computed 7 Sep 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.

Synopsis
Set against Indias 1990 economic crisis, Governor follows Raman, a reluctant bureaucrat unexpectedly appointed as the Governor of the RBI when the nation stands on the brink of bankruptcy. As inflation rises, fuel runs low, and panic spreads, Raman must navigate political pressure and a collapsing system to prevent the country from falling apart.
