News18.com gave the film a 3 star rating and wrote, “Acting, cinematography, story, and screenplay, everything makes it a cinematic experience you should not miss out on.”

Speaking with us exclusively, Prithviraj opened up about his physical transformation in the film. The actor lost 31 kilos for the film. “I personally never thought that this was possible. [The most grilling part about it was] the hunger. Because it didn’t involve dieting. It involved me not eating. My transformation was majorly based on fasting. There were times when I was on a 3-day fast,” he shared.

The film has been in the making for almost 16 years. It was first conceptualised in 2008 by Blessy and Sukumaran had agreed to play the part later that year. “I don’t know if it can be classified as a movie experience any longer. It’s more like a part of my life now. I said yes to this film in 2008, and here we are in 2024. That’s about a 16-year-long journey. I am only 41 now, so, 16 years of 41 is a substantial period of your life,” he added.
