What the critics say
Critics like Nivin Pauly's restrained, transformative performance and the sensitive early portrayal of his character's Asperger's, set against nice Goa cinematography and music, but several call the romance unconvincing, the pacing slow, and the plot's later turns implausible.

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.
