Although the film's plot had elements of RRR, Baahubali and a bit of Batman as well, it wasn't an unbearable watch.In fact, Ranbir Kapoor ruled the screen with his charismatic presence in every frame. The only problem was that the versatile actor didn't get a strong enough script to hold the audience's attention.
