This is interesting, no doubt but the fact that he relies on the usual tropes of commercial cinema is what makes it tedius. While the maker has tried to be different with the screenplay, the commercial must haves like fights and songs slow down the narrative that should have kept one on the edge of the seat."[7] The Hindu wrote "The film is narrated so poorly that it is only in the second half that we even learn about what the lead character does in the film."[8]
