ETimes verdict
According to our exclusive review, the Indrajith Sukumaran starrer begins with an intriguing premise but faces challenges in it’s execution.Our review noted that the premise is surely interesting as a script but the execution struggles to create emotional engagement.It further stated, “Multiple backstories, though intended to deepen the narrative, end up creating lag and repetition. As a result, the emotional intensity the film aims for never fully materialises.” Despite these criticisms, the performances received appreciation. The review added, “Indrajith Sukumaran delivers his usual dependable performance. Renji Panicker, Reba Monica John, Aju Varghese, Nishanth Sagar, and Divya Pillai handle their roles well, but the writing gives them limited space to leave a lasting impression.“Apart from Indrajith Sukumaran the film features a strong supporting cast that includes Divya Pillai, Reba Monica John, and Renji Panicker in important roles.On the other hand, Indrajith Sukumaran will be next seen in Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph’s actioner ‘Ram’.
