Unnecessary dramatic Twists..
preetham-navale10 January 2020
First thing I hate the most about this movie is the horrible song made for the kidnappers glorifying their criminal character and it keeps repeating. Poor direction on the cop's role in second half. The overall plot of the movie is good but it has many annoying and sometimes overly predictable unnecessary twists. I'm definitely recommending not to watch this movie.

Don't waste your time on this

Looks the the director has seen lot of hollywood thriller movies and has tried to create similar one but failed miserably.

1. The direction/Editing/character weightage are really on the worst part.

2. The Police shown in this movies as jokers, and Kishore character is really wasted.

3. Even high school students can identify lot of mistakes in this movies.

A) Daughter asks for Kesari bhath where in mother prepares Kharabhath B) In another sceen bill amount is 500 rs, and he hands over some amount to waiter and tells him to keep the changes, which applies should should have paid 500 * 2 = 1000, really great heart for paying such a tip c) Kishore , The police man never uses the gun till last seen which is top most comedy of this movie.

A gripping thriller, worth a watch!
ConfusedRoulette11 July 2019
After his successful directorial horror thriller 'Mummy' which was released in 2016, Director Lohith is back with another impressive thriller film.

The story of the film is about a resilient mother who sets out on a quest to find her missing daughter. The film is based on a real life story and mainly explores the dark side of the city of Joy - Kolkata. There are some rather horrifying sequences where the rampant child trafficking and sexual exploitation of girls is shown.

The film has an engaging screenplay and keeps you hooked throughout. The film also has a subtle tone, with some really good cinematography, especially the dark red streets of Kolkata are captured brilliantly through the camera lens. Also the background score is impressive and gives the necessary thrills perfectly.

The climax of the movie could have been better. The other thing which is disappointing is the mismatch in the lip syncing of dialogues. This is quite evident at many places in the movie and partially hampers the viewing experience. Also since the story is based in Kolkata, the audience will have to refer the subtitles to understand the Bengali & Hindi dialogues.

Priyanka Upendra has given her best performance as a resilient & strong willed mother and her display of emotions is really good. Kishore Kumar stands out as a skilful & able cop. Aishwarya Upendra is cute but her acting skills could have been better.

Overall this film is gripping enough and makes for a good worthy watch for all the thriller movie enthusiasts.

Awfully slow and lagging
adhir-8487421 March 2020
Great script but awfully slow and garbage direction.

Unnecessarily long and horrible to watch.

Could have been done in 1h 20min max had it not been for the direction.

BGM is the worst part of the film.

Suggest to watch only in 2x speed.

A fresh new genre for Kannada movie after a long time
manjubshiva30 April 2020
I was reluctant to watch this initially but turned out to be an amazing movie . There are very few Kannada movies where a lead is female and this stands out among those . If you are not the one who like female leads then do not try to watch this movie . The movie has enough emotions and suspense to keep you engaged .
