What the critics say

Critics praise Mayasabha's production design, atmosphere and Jaaved Jaffery's performance, but call the plot self-indulgent, confusing and uneven between humour and thrill, making it an ambitious yet underwhelming watch.

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; 6 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.
