What the critics say

Vidhi gets praised for strong cinematography, music and performances (Dharmajan Bolgatty singled out) and its faithful take on the real demolition case, though some critics find too many underbaked subplots and a slow emotional build that make the runtime feel unjustified.

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 4 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.
