What the critics say

Critics consistently praise the performances, especially Duniya Vijay and Raj B Shetty, but most say the screenplay grows predictable, incoherent or contrived, though one review found no faults at all.

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 6 readings; 0 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.
