About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, twisty good-vs-evil thriller built around a brainy duel and high stakes; Not for you if you dislike long runtimes or commercial song breaks, like in Ayan or Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru.
Pros: smart cat-and-mouse rivalry; strong villain presence; tight, engaging pace | Cons: slightly long runtime; a few logic leaps; some songs feel extra
