What the critics say
Critics call Soothravakyam muddled and unfocused, weighed down by thin, derivative writing and a padded first half, though Shine Tom Chacko's performance and the songs stand out.

Derived by Filmi
28
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; 1 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.
