What the critics say
A tightly scripted mystery with strong performances (Girish Kulkarni singled out), confident direction and camerawork, though several critics feel the twist's payoff and final act underwhelm and keep viewers emotionally distant.

Derived by Filmi
50
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 5 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.
