Reception
[edit]Writing in Times of India Sunayana Suresh stated "Given that this is a thriller, the fact that it has been shot in a single take slows down the pace in a big manner. The performances in such an effort need to be top notch, but they end up being a far cry from that. While the director seems to have done his homework and his ambition and effort need to be applauded, one wishes the end product was up to that grand idea."[4]
