What the critics say

Critics largely warm to its sincere lead performances and evocative 1990s Goa setting, but many feel the screenplay stays thin and the storytelling drags or repeats itself past a certain point.

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 8 readings; 4 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.
