What the critics say

Critics call it a taut, honestly written thriller led by Ramesh Aravind, strong on pacing and music, though some find a sluggish stretch merging family drama with the case and its contrivances outweighing the story.

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; 0 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.
