A bold attempt by the actress but it'd be surprising if her career moves forward just like it is now for her, let's see.
The Although the movie had gripping scenes keeping the audience engaged, the climax didn't do justice and looked more like having suppressed the whole plot as the backstory wasn't strong enough to hold everything that happened accountably.
Watched the movie to see the hype of amalapaul's brave no string attached acting.Movie started with unwanted scenes which got connected in climax.Movie focuses more on idiotic prank games which are made by TV channels and its negative impacts.Nude scenes were unnecessary and could have been much better if not included in the movie.The climax is worth watching.Just a mix of okay and good.If you feel free you can watch or you can skip choice is yours.
Cinematography is worth praising for.He had done an excellent job.
The movie claims to be feminist but it tells women what they should do. The reason is an act of defiance 200 years ago.
The prologue of Nangeli and the breast tax system does not layout the path to the movie. It's thrown at the movie's plot hoping it will stick. But the way the movie unravels it's an edge of the seat thriller(with probable plot holes), which is all very enjoyable! I was almost convinced of a sinister finale. Instead it is very jarring, preachy and cold. A lot of themes are pointed at, hoping something will make sense. Nothing does!
All of the characters' are all maxing out on one of their stats leaving them to be caricatures. I will say that the film beautifully captured the idea of being nude without having to drop jaws from the contemporary modest Indian. It is definitely interesting if one observes the "nudity" that is shown. It does beg the question of what is acceptable or not and why?

Seven-line Review: Writer/director Rathna Kumar toys with the concept of freedom of expression (for women) in this Amala Paul starrer. It's safe to say that his efforts are fruitful to an extent, especially from a storytelling perspective. While several scenes in the first half merely contribute to establishing one-note side characters and make negligible progress storywise, the second half offers great thrills. Cinematography by Vijay Karthik Kannan is superb. His choice of angles around a nude Kamini (Amala) is never for once too revealing or sexually suggestive. The final twist, or as they say, 'the big reveal' (with a backstory of its own), did not disappoint though not the most logical one. After Meyadha Maan and Aadai, I feel like Rathna Kumar has plenty more interesting stories (and ideas) up his sleeve.
