What the critics say
Critics call it a reasonably engaging, Agatha Christie-style whodunnit carried by Ramesh Aravind's performance, though some find it undone by tonal whiplash, with the last half-hour standing out as more engrossing.

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; 2 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.
