Story, Screenplay and Direction: The story is that of an unstable man and once the man is identified, it ceases to be a mystery. After that, holding the viewers attention is difficult. Ravibabu's screenplay does just that. The first half keeps the interest level alive alright and the curiosity is on a high. Instead of pulling in unnecessary subplots, the maker gets straight to the point. The second half is interesting and that saves the movie, because in a movie like this, it's the second half that makes all the difference.
To give the director credit, it doesn't have too many shrieks and sounds. The background is not overpowering, and only has the occasional creaking and dark alleys and sudden loud noises. But these are not out-of-place or just to scare or thrill. Except for the fact that the first half has many houses and places kept in dark (why doesn't anyone switch on the lights?). Bhoomika is an asset to the movie, with a convincing performance and subtlety in her whole aspect. From the beginning, it's a clear-cut murder trail and nothing else.
The madness of the man is shown, but not explained-why, how or when is neglected, and just what it is, is shown. There are some very gruesome shots, bodies with parts missing and other such things that don't go well with popcorn.
