It is one of those instances where a promising notion got marred by an inferior execution. The topic that they were determined to discuss was shocking indeed, even more so when I saw the end credits rolling. It wasn't all a work of mere fiction, there was some harsh truth in it and that boggled my mind. Never did I think such acts of atrocities are even possible to commit in real life.
However, that's probably the only flattering aspect I can come up with. If you keep the idea on one side you get yourselves an ill-conceived byproduct that for the most part comes off as futile and childish. Not to mention the poor write-up and shoddy visual effects made the condition even worse.
Sam was great though, it's always a pleasure to see her donning such intense roles, regardless, there's only so much one individual could do in cases like these where story and presentation tend to matter the most.

The movie had a good start, but later lost track. The concept looks new and experimental to Indian cinema. Somewhere I feel the concept is inspired from the Netflix series Squid game.
But the execution was very bad with a lot of loopholes and not a convincing ending.. I Was waiting for this movie and saw it on amazon prime.
I could say it is one time watchable.
Acting by Samantha was just Ok. Action scenes look like Samantha has put good effort.
Direction is below average, could have been better or executed better.
Some homework to think about the current fake cosmetic market.
Every girl should think about.

The movie plot is quite unique..but the way the story unfolds will make you fall asleep. Such bad story telling that undermines the skill of such a veteran actor like Samantha. Couldn't exploit her full acting range.
Absolute bland build up to the plot twist.
Can't connect with the story, neither can be emotionally invested in the whole story.
The twist at the end is quite predictable.
The first half is so desperately boring that people might leave the theatre even before they reach the good part that is the last twenty to thirty minutes of the movie.
Could have done much much better with that story line. Much engaging story telling was required.
Watching the full movie left a very bad aftertaste.

In 2009, a SFC based cosmetics company Neocutis Inc admitted that it used cells from a male fetus as one of the key ingredients in its age defying cream. It used the
Processed Skin Cell Protein -PSP, obtained from a postage stamp-sized rectangle of skin taken from a terminated 14-week old male fetus in Switzerland. This scandalized the anti-abortionists across the nation. Although, the fetal kidney cells are being used for the polio vaccine.
The plot of this movie is based on these lines. It feels quite preposterous. An intriguing tandem plot with almost equally weighted two storylines. It unravels an ugly truth. It has however, few unfounded de trop elements for example rape attempt, bullying and overstretched conclusion. The protagonist played by Samantha Prabhu who delivers a commendable performance and her character is cultivated in a stable unhurried manner. But an outmoded bolly/tollywood drama makes a supposedly an excellent unique modern mystery drama somewhat ineffectual and little run-of-the-mill. Still an okay watch.

The concept of the movie is absolutely about a new concept. Here girls are hired for surrogacy and are kept in a closed apartment without having zero contact with anyone. They were said that the hot shots people hire these girls and take their respective babies after their delivery. Neither the mother nor the couples who pay for their deliveries come in contact with each other during the delivery period. Samantha Ruth who played "Yashoda" in this movie agrees for surrogacy so that she can arrange money for her sister's operation. Yashoda while staying in the closed apartment discovers that something is fishy and the film is about whole investigation. Very new topic,may be it would be unacceptable to larger audience but yes it's a movie for all Samantha lovers.
