Our verdict
ETimes gave the film a rating of 3 stars out of 5 with an audience score of 3.7 stars. An excerpt from our official review reads, “Director Sujeeth leans heavily on star power, often at the cost of layered storytelling and character arcs. Several subplots are undercooked, and familiar tropes such as the wife’s murder and the daughter’s kidnapping feel formulaic. Thaman’s rousing soundtrack, however, injects energy into the action sequences.”
