What the critics say

Critics call this an inventive, well-crafted horror-whodunit with striking cinematography and sound design, mostly praising Nayanthara's performance though one review finds the lead flat and pacing slow.

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.
