Enter ACP Arav, who is put in charge of the case. Will Varalaxmi find out who killed Mahat?

Analysis:

Directed by Dayal Padmanabhan, the movie has a decent ploy with a decent execution.

The movie doest not have any loopholes, exaggerations or unnecessary commercial asepcts and tries to be as realistic as possible.

The revenge mission is executed in a convincing manner.  The suspense about the identity of the killer is also maintained till the last.

Performance-wise, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Arav, Santhosh Prathap and Mahat Raghavendra have delivered their best.

Varalaxmi stands out in her character as the cop who is on revenge mode.

It is Arav’s entry that creates the much needed intensity for the movie.

Rest of the cast have also understood their role and have performed well.

Manikanth Kadri’s music maintains the intensity of the movie.  Shekar Chandru’s camerawork is impressive.  Rest of the technical aspects are passable.

The movie is available on Aha OTT platform.

Rating: 3.6/5
