🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This Telugu action-thriller delivers a gripping cat-and-mouse chase, elevated by its compelling premise of stolen identity. The narrative efficiently builds paranoia, framing its protagonist's fight for survival within a larger, corrupt game.

What lingers after the credits is the chilling ease with which a man can be erased and replaced, and the visceral struggle to reclaim one's own name from the shadows. A solid genre piece with a nerve-fraying core. — MovieFinder Editorial
