ETimes Awards ‘Thudakkam’ Three Stars
The positive box office numbers are complemented by favorable critical reception. ETimes awarded ‘Thudakkam’ three stars out of five, highlighting key aspects of the film.
Their exclusive review notes, “Vismaya manages to hold her own throughout, even though there are a few moments when the emotions don’t fully come through. Aashish is remarkable as the villain, and together the duo have excellent screen presence that keeps one hooked. Despite the solid performances, there is a slight artificiality in how the second half unfolds. The tonal shift is jarring, but it is wrapped up neatly with a cleanly executed fight scene.”
The strong weekend performance suggests ‘Thudakkam’ is set for continued success, buoyed by both audience enthusiasm and critical appreciation.
