Shubhra Gupta, Indian Express

“Miles ahead of its predecessor. It avoids all those mistakes: caste is not conflated with class, there’s no shying away from a sensitive subject, the cast is effective, and the storytelling commits to a pitch without losing the plot.”
Rahul Desai, Hollywood Reporter – India

“Bold, powerful and often incendiary adaptation of Mari Selvaraj’s Pariyerum Perumal (2018) brings into mainstream Hindi cinema the radical Dalit consciousness that has transformed the Tamil film industry over the past few years.”
Nandini Ramnath, Scroll
