What the critics say

Most critics call it a dated, formulaic mass entertainer with a thin, overstuffed script, crediting only Pawan Kalyan's screen presence, a few action blocks and songs, and saying it mainly works for fans.

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 13 readings; 9 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.
