OTT Premiere & Review
The film was appreciated for its comedy timing and the chemistry among the young cast. While some critics pointed out the script’s loose ends and slightly over-the-top moments. The Times of India gave it a 2.5/5, stating, “If you put together a bunch of popular young actors, you are bound to get some fun comedy, thanks to their chemistry. Bromance works on this principle, but with a weak story.”
The review further added, “However, the story and the jokes don’t work all the time, and you are faced with quite a few cringe moments. All the actors have a good chemistry, but the characters are not strongly written and could get a bit annoying, like with Mathew’s peculiar rage issue, which is taken over the top. Overall, this is a film that could click with the youth.”
Chaos, comedy, and a gang you’ll never forget.
