Feels a slightly bloated in length, but thankfully has enough LOL moments to keep the proceedings going. One of those films where the hero picks brains over brawn. @rukminitweets shines in her Tamil debut with a meaty part. @iYogiBabu gets a solid part to entertain after a long time.”

During the interval, they gave an exciting glimpse of the second half, which has made me eager to watch it. #VijaySethupathi He has delivered a very realistic performance unlike anything seen before. The heroine #Rukmini’s acting is also excellent, and #YogiBabu is a strength to the film.”
