ReviewÂ
The whole movie summarizes a lot of happening on a single rainy night. The storytelling of Rensil D’Silva tries to bring the writing in to make the viewers hooked to their screen till the end of the movie.
As a concern of the story, the start won’t seem joyful, but as the tales unfold, bringing the thriller crisps visible to everyone.
When it comes to the actors, everyone tried to put as many details as possible.
As we see Manoj as a husband and father, the addition of depth to his character done by him, makes it feel more visible to the audience.
Seen as in the same avatar from his earlier hits like ‘Family Man’ and ‘Silence…Can you Hear It?’, makes his role more shining.
The role by Neena gives the audience the perfect shivers. As a mother who wanted revenge makes the character whom you would stick around throughout the whole movie duration.
Overall the character development by Neena is seen to be more than expected.
As seen earlier in Dangal, Sakshi Tanwar again outstands the role of an Innocent mother.
In the final review, the movie gets around 2/5 stars from famous critics due to its plot.
According to public opinion, the characters were touching excellence, but the story seemed to be a bit shallow.
