Puri Jagannadh's films can be hit or miss lately. Hope this one brings back his old magic. The combination looks promising though - hoping for a solid story rather than just style.

Interesting to see the muhurat puja tradition being followed even in big productions. Shows how Indian cinema beautifully blends tradition with modern filmmaking.
