I read the book "Devotion of Suspect X" before I watched the movie. The book truly was unputdownable with an ending which stayed with me for days.

Unfortunately, the movie doesn't live up to the book at all, I was expecting something crafty from Ghosh but it was as if he tried to fit in everything from the book in the movie. There were a lot more characters in the book like Yakuwo and Kudo which were as it seems amalgamated in Vijay Verma's character (Karan Anand).

The ending felt rushed with no solid explanation and Ghosh gave a new angle of "first love".

Performances were stellar and solid with Jaideep Ahlawat being the brightest star. He was so well suited for the role of the teacher and sank his teeth into the role with such ease.

Kareena did justice to her role but I felt she was trapped by the script. The scene in the beginning was a testimony to her acting abilities especially when it came to her being vulnerable and fierce at the same time. I wish Ghosh could have explored her guilt a little better.

Vijay was as usual excellent.

Jaideep Ahlawat delivers an exceptional performance, intricately portraying subtle nuances like his character's realization of Maya's (Kareena) true feelings, reflected in his expressions throughout. When Jaideep interacts with the students, it brings a delightful touch of joy. Coupled with a captivating storyline, this movie is an absolute must-watch.

Kareena blends seamlessly into her role, becoming just another face in the crowd, while Vijay's performance leaves a lasting impression. The director ensures there's no excess of songs, which is highly commendable.

This movie is a must-see if you're seeking a compelling storyline combined with powerful acting.

Well are you a sucker for good old murder mystery thrillers? Then I'll highly recommend this movie to you Great performances by the 3 main leads Especially Jaideep ahlawat Dude just stole the show with his acting here Also you may find a major similarity with Drishyam1 No no its not copied from Drishyam1 technically Because the novel this movie is based on i.e "the devotion of suspect X"Drishyam 1's storyline was losely based on this novel only So here one similarity you'll naturally find in this movie with Drishyam But overall the characters bring nice originality and suspense Will keep you hooked on from start.

Story starts on a bad note (for that u need to watch it) as a audience I was like maybe Naren the teacher had a bad phase, but then the story makes a little bit curve. In few minutes u are going to make a little spicy story in ur head suddenly tudum villain came into the storyline. From now on full on planning and masala will entertain you . From my PoV the after the half part it is little bit slow but the story and grip needs that slowness. Also the kudos to the actors and the director who made this movie. A good a movie to watch if u want to do exercise for ur brain 😙 Xd , Kidding ! But it is a good a watch. And the salute to Jaideep ahlawat.

It is a prime example of a tastefully decorated ship smoothly covering all its due course, only to sink helplessly right before penetrating the premises of the destined harbour. It is a Story that did everything right and ticked every box only to underwhelm at the onset of its climactic segment!

Finales are highly critical for any film, let alone for a murder mystery feature because it is that particular juncture where threads get loose, revelations crop up on the surface, and even a single mistake could jeopardise the whole situation. I am afraid that was exactly what transpired in this case!

Mr. Ghosh, what the heck happened to you? This is the same person who made films like Kahaani, Badla, Bob Biswas, some of my absolute favourites. Where was that Sujoy Ghosh I knew and adored? I expected much better from him.

P. S. Regardless of the writing and its drawbacks, the performances were impressive. Bebo, Jaideep and Vijay, all three, had done great, as was expected from them.
