Priyanka Sundar Firstpost Aishwarya Lekshmi shines in this striking story. Nov 20, 2023 Full Review Paul Nicodemus The Times of India The film achieves its target and makes you feel for the plight of Ammu. But despite its relevant story, the film could have been crisper, more engaging, more mature and less predictable. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 20, 2023 Full Review Bhuvanesh Chandar The Hindu Aishwarya Lekshmi and Naveen Chandra deliver fantastic performances, but director Charukesh Sekar’s film still leaves you wanting more closure...

Audience Member Look the movie has a predictable storyline ending, but it effectively conveys the pain and struggles of domestic violence survivors, as well as the difficulties of accessing support. In most Indian media, women's pain and their roles as wives are often trivialised. This film powerfully addresses these issues, reaching a broad audience. Definitely worth a watch if you something with depth. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/20/24 Full Review Read all reviews
