The casting is good but surprisingly the actors haven't done any justice to their roles. The director is at fault for not bringing the talent out of some of the actors who can act. The dialogue delivery is very bad. It was more like a short film project directed by a film making student with acting school students acting in it.

At approx. 2 hour 10 minutes, the film felt like a drag in the first 1 hour. The writing is very depressingly bad. The characterization of all the characters were written very loosely without any interest. The research done for the court scenes were actually good but then the very next moment everything seems very convenient. In simple words, there isn't any struggle the 'lead' character has throughout the film. The idea of the film was good. The film catches its pace only after the first hour.

The direction doesn't help either. I am shocked to know who the director is. I wonder what happened.

Midhun Mukundan's music is very ordinary except for "Indu ninna edurali" which is a trance in itself but repeating the same song or its music as background doesn't help the badly written screenplay. This very song is the only reason I watched the film.

I am very disappointed with the writing as well as the film in its entirety. This film should have been one of those non-star cast Kannada films whose main strength should have been the story. Unfortunately..
