ETimes verdict
The film has received mixed reviews. As stated by ETimes, the film tries to deliver a simple romantic story with meaningful themes.Our exclusive review says, “Though the main story is a predictable romance, there are some important messages about the older generation needing to step up and allow the youth to take decisions in their lives. Director Vishnu Aravind handles Bibin Mohan and Jai Vishnu’s script well.But in the second half, the film descends into a typical drama, with avoidable developments – a pregnancy (it seems biologically tricky!) and a slap in the face, among others – that work against the story. In fact, with the way the love stories unfold, the film feels like an anti-romance, with a bunch of men and women who have a happy routine in their lives, but find themselves emotionally unstable when they’re partners.“On the other hand, Sharafudheen’s previous hit film was ‘Padakkalam’.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and data in this article have been collected from public and industry sources.
