What the critics say

Critics are split on Raja Rani: some call it a stupid, overlong, slapstick-heavy script with a blank Arya, while others praise Nayanthara's performance and a strong first half that loses steam after the interval into a manipulative climax.

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 4 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.
