Sruthi Raman The Hollywood Reporter India 5d
Now this is an important and deeply intentional memo for a country grappling with a profound challenge in women’s safety... Yet its message is undermined by the familiar cycles of gendered tropes and male saviourism that it falls back on. Go to Full Review
Sashidhar Adivi Filmfare Aug 21
3/5
...Irumudi is a solid, intense drama elevated by Ravi Teja’s restrained performance and a convincing father-daughter bond. But predictable villains and uneven emotional beats prevent it from becoming as powerful or shattering as it could have been. Go to Full Review
Sangeetha Devi Dundoo The Hindu Aug 21
Despite occasional missteps, Irumudi emerges as an emotionally moving drama. Go to Full Review

2/5
A tighter script, a more disciplined second half and villains who felt like real people, rather than devices to generate outrage, could have turned Irumudi into the comeback Ravi Teja desperately needed. Go to Full Review

Prakash 3d Every penny worth movie See more Neehar 3d “ఆడపిల్లను పెంచాల్సింది భయంతో కాదు… ఏదైనా చెప్పుకోగలమనే ధైర్యంతో.” ❤️ Silence is NOT safety. Fear is NOT protection. మన పిల్లలకు మనం ఇవ్వాల్సిన గొప్ప security — “ఏం జరిగినా అమ్మా/నాన్నకి చెప్పొచ్చు… వాళ్లు నా వెంటే ఉంటారు” అనే నమ్మకం. ❤️ #Irumudi — A beautiful father-daughter emotion with a very powerful and much-needed message for every parent. 👏🙏 See more Sravani 4d how should a girl child should be in the society the absolute father daughter bond is awesome the way father treats her daughter is adorable See more Maddy Aug 26 Good sensible movie for Ravi Teja after a very long time. Some areas can be improved, but nitpicking aside, overall it’s a very good movie. See more Venu Aug 23 It’s a very good movie See more Raghava Rao M Aug 23 Performances are good but The emotional beats feel forced, almost as if they were written just to justify the twist. That ends up contradicting one of the movie’s key messages about women needing to be strong, because the story ultimately punishes that strength in a disastrous way. The devotional angle also feels disconnected. So much emphasis is placed on faith and devotion, yet things only get worse, with little narrative connection between that devotion and what actually unfolds. See more Read all reviews
