Tatsam Mukherjee The Wire (INDIA) In an age where it’s almost too easy for makers to give into preaching populist, regressive values – with the cop-out explanation that it’s what the audience wants – it’s interesting to see Arun’s film being mindful and deliberate about what it says. Sep 16, 2025 Full Review Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views When Chandra is at full strength, the movie is unstoppable and delicious. Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Athira M The Hindu There is richness on the screen in terms of production design, visual effects, and frames, but it is all done without compromising the script. Sep 2, 2025 Full Review Sreeju Sudhakaran LatestLY.com Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra may borrow familiar superhero beats, but its spirited execution, engaging performances and rooted world-building make it an exciting first step in a larger saga. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 30, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
