Overview
- Released September 26, the Malayalam–Tamil bilingual marks Unni Sivalingam’s debut with Shane Nigam and Shanthanu Bhagyaraj leading the cast.
- The story follows four kabaddi-playing friends in a Kerala–Tamil Nadu border town who get pulled into gang rivalries, with the sports angle receding after the midpoint.
- Reviewers commend frequent, well-staged fight sequences and single out Sai Abhyankkar’s propulsive background score as a key strength.
- Critics fault a predictable, patchy screenplay, thin characterisation, and note that Preethi Asrani’s role is sidelined.
- Early social-media reactions are more upbeat, citing engaging action blocks, lively kabaddi stretches, and an energizing score as reasons to watch in theatres.
