    An amazing watch filled with suspense!!

    The movie is great overall - natural acting by everyone, entertaining, and grasps your attention well! Loved the unique storyline. Especially for youngsters, this is a must watch. I don't understand Malayalam still I thoroughly enjoyed it and understood everything - thanks to the all the actors who played their characters so so well. Towards the end I was just holding my breath thinking what would happen next... and boom!! It surprises you :D The end was mind blowing! Enjoyed watching this thriller :) Huge shoutout to Adithya Sai ;) I have known him since his Instagram reels era - feels so good to see him on the screen!

    Easy and light to watch teens running around

    Helps you re live your college days when largest issues of life were, someone seeing your classmate for an extra 30 seconds.

    A trek into nearby jungle and its adventures were like climbing Mount Everest and surviving it . And then all the fun of arguments over simple decisions that we would then think deserves a national level debate and putting everyone in their rightful place with arguments is the goal of life.

    For those who come a long way ahead in life this movie reminds of college days adventures and simplicity of life and decisions back then .

    Also admire how well these new kids have done for their age and experience.

    Go in with easy expectations from the movie , can multitask and watch movie in first half ,second half takes a little bit of your focus but overall super chill and pleasant movie . Can sit back and watch teens dealing with their largest life issues (including first time acting challenges) on a relaxed Sunday .

    May remind some of you of a friend or a stupid adventure of your own from college times . Easy low stress movie.

    Good

    A worth watch movie, depicting the pychotic disturbances caused by drug use. Apart from giving a good message to society, it also had a thriller experience especially in the second half of the movie.

    Excellent cinematography and background score. The background music added to wilderness . Camera captured the stunning forest excellently.

    Coming to the drawbacks, plot for the movie was so short and most of the frontline characters were newfaces.

    Firat half of the movie is a bit slow ,showing the usual college life , but second half gives a blood boiling thriller experience Overall a worth watch movie.

    The absolute worst Movie of 2024!!

    This is not a movie but a series of meaningless, illogical scenes merged together to make a random 2+ hour random video clip that should not even be allowed to be uploaded on Youtube let alone play in a theater. All the 10 star and postive reviews are obviously fake its pathetic! Nobody with half a brain would rate this movie anything more than one star.

    To begin with the plot is abysmal, the actors are random kids with absolutely no telent in acting.

    To the actor and the director of the movie find something else with your free time-dont even attempt to make another film. Yoy guys are talentless.
