I wish we saw more moments where the film stayed with Prasoon a little longer instead of hastily moving to the succeeding situation.

Sangeeth opts for this “realistic” way of narration for this movie, and since the characters are rooted in that backdrop, the treatment works in favor of the film. Within the first half, the makers effectively establish the village and its routine. Parallelly the insecurities and frustrations of Prasoon are also shown to us. The movie’s third act is also a very simplistic approach toward giving the hero hope that this profession can work for him. But what elevated the climax was how it used the concept of birth in a somewhat surreal way. The crooked, cunning, opportunist and humane ones are all under one roof, and they all have happy tears witnessing the moment. Justin Varghese’s minimal music gives the right energy to the narrative.
