What the critics say

Critics single out Mohanlal's weighty presence and a transformed NTR, backed by strong production values and music, but call the story predictable and wafer-thin, with a flat first half and an underwhelming climax.

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; 3 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.
