Trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared his thoughts on social media, describing it as a gripping thriller. He praised Katrina Kaif for her terrific performance and highlighted Vijay Sethupathi's splendid and standout acting.
Adarsh mentioned the movie's suspenseful plot, filled with twists and turns, creating tension-filled moments and a masterstroke finale.
