The film spends almost the entire first half on building the plot which can be considered as an unnecessary drag. Salaam Venky Movie Review, as per critics, compensate this slowness in the first half with an equally engaging melodrama throughout the rest of the movie. However, as Venky finally convinces his mother to file a petition for euthanasia, the ball starts rolling.
