      Slow but good!!
      This is a movie that tests your patience initially and develops the intensity as the movie progress. Wonderful acting by the cast, especially Prakash Raj. I am not sure whether it creates awareness about HIV AIDS but its an engaging film. The cinematography was brilliant with natural light at the climax part. A good compelling film worth watching in Netflix.
