    Good Watch

    Good movie plot and screenplay. Makes you think about such crude incidents which may be true. Actors played their characters well and brought out emotions very well. The movie is generally fast paced, and has good action sequences too.

    Overall an thrilling and interesting experience. Should watch !

    Perfect thriller coupled with story!

    Such a excellent movie plot. Atharva did a pretty excellent job in acting along with Nimisha was a perfect combo. In search of new born baby, Balaji Sakthivel handling this case was interesting to see. Lots of truth revealed in the process how kids have been misused in reality. The movie went on a very good pace and gave the audience thrilling experience. I felt refreshing while watching this movie in the process of how truth is getting unfolded in search of new born baby.

    Action scenes were really awesome. Nimisha facial expressions and coupled with acting was top notch. Generally movies end in a cinematic way and this movie also ended in the same way.

    Overall an interesting, thrilling experience for the audience.

    Good movie with lot of commercial ingredients ...

    RATED 7/10 Language: Tamil Source: Nil Media Partner: JioHotstar

    Overall, this is very good movie with good awareness/social message. The cast and acting were very good, and it is the core strength of the movie.

    The climax in temple was handled very well. It was highly connected with the family sentiment and worked very well. Because of the this climax, people shall left theatre with the high satisfaction.

    And now the bothering things: Movie starts with very cliche drunken song for hero opening and alliance approach for heroine. It has lots and lots of heroic fights and on top of that one kuthu song also.

    Adjust these masala mediocre items, you shall enjoy this movie.

    Review of DNA Tamil Movie

    DNA movie featuring Atharvaa, Nimisha in lead roles along with co stars chethan, Ramesh tilak, Karunakaran and others which is directed by Nelson venkatesh is a thriller movie where in movie starts with introducing the personal problems of the lead roles and how they tie up a knot, movie initially goes slowly and then movie turns out to be fully engaging once their child is into a trouble Then onwards movie is fully engaging with each and every scene upto intermission later on its even more, when the protagonist decodes each and every information to find out child, where in a very big network is revealed out, Highlights of the movie is atharvaa's performance along with cop, nimisha's innocent performance, good screen play, good bgm at several places, all others justified their characters, This movie turns out to be a social message movie on how to be careful at places.

    Compelling plot, weak narrative. Nimisha Sajayan carries it all tbroughout.

    DNA explores the haunting plight of a woman in labor, dismissed as mentally unstable by her own family. After delivering her baby, she catches a glimpse of the child before passing out, only to wake up and insist that the baby handed to her is not hers. Is it postpartum depression, her fragile mental state, or something far more unsettling?

    Nimisha Sajayan, as always, delivers a performance far beyond excellence, anchoring the film with raw intensity and quiet strength. Unfortunately, the rest of the cast often feels miscast and out of sync with the film's emotional gravity. The plot itself is compelling and thought provoking, but the narrative could have been tighter and more layered to fully do justice to its premise.
