Blessy, the gifted director, previously graced us with cinematic gems like "Pranayam," "Tanmatra," and "Kazcha." However, this time, he stumbled into the trap of misguided marketing gimmicks, and the overseas branding tarnished the essence of his true artistry.
Prithvi's acting is not a transformation, but a fancy dress competition, mixed with overacting. Even LKG students outshine it. However, beyond the cinematography and visual brilliance, there's little substance to match the hype. Everything is merely an inflated claim. As for A. R. Rahman, his star power still sells this film, even if his musical magic has lost some of its luster.
The story itself feels contrived, drawing inspiration from a true tale but embellishing it with overhyped theatrics. The filmmakers' assertion that this project spanned 16 years is inaccurate; their official YouTube channel documents an inaugural pooja ceremony held in 2018, making it a mere 6 years rather than the claimed decade and a half. Unfortunately, the film lacks emotional depth, relying instead on theatrical performances. For those accustomed to quality content from platforms like Netflix and Prime, this movie might appear unremarkable. Even the desert shots, touted as extraordinary, fall into the realm of mediocrity, having been witnessed in countless other films. In summary, it's a below-average production, skillfully amplified through PR efforts and marketing wizardry.
