Meanwhile, another profile shared his views on the movie thread. The user noted that the thread lost its throb when diverted to several subplots.
The thread was interesting in the beginning.
But got diluted to many sub plots .
Overacting in comedy scenes irritating.😬😬😬😬
Very underwhelming screenplay.Basil tries but story is weak.
