Ranganayaki Audience Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Organnall Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
