Moviegoers are saying
This meta-comedy parody has audiences split between loving its audacious KGF/Salaar mashup concept and feeling exhausted by its reference-heavy execution. While viewers praise the uniquely quirky writing and fresh approach to Tollywood tropes, most agree the film's ambitious comedy scope gets derailed by pacing issues and an overstuffed runtime.

    Every scene felt like a movie reference guessing game 😋 Looks like Sheldon Cooper sponsored Vishnu's wardrobe.
