Unfortunately, after that, it completely loses its direction. The core concept had a lot of potential, but the makers failed to develop it into a compelling story. There’s nothing new or memorable, and the script feels weak and inconsistent.”Another viewer shared: “The description online claimed that the film was a strong depiction of Sanatana Dharma, but I don’t think the film lived up to that promise. In my opinion, the promotional description created expectations that the film failed to live up to.”
