Reductive movie with a subpar plot
27 January 2021 | by ashwin-mudigondaSee all my reviews

The movie was quite painful to watch and seemed to have been created mainly to shake the viewers with shock factors. The script is hollow and the acting over-the-top. The story loosely makes sense and attempts to tug at your heart strings. Oh! look how these girls are abused by pimps and politicians. They want to escape, but even then there is a price to pay. But the execution is so sloppy, you wish the movie was no longer than a trailer. The ending is downright comical and not worth waiting until.
