What the critics say

An earnest, experimental social satire on fame, gender and technology that critics praise for sharp humour, strong performances and Vasuki Vaibhav's score, though some say the screenplay doesn't sustain narrative engagement.

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; 1 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.
