This romantic action entertainer was released on December 8, 2023, and received mixed to negative reviews from critics and audiences. The film ended up grossing average at the box office. According to the latest reports, the makers are now thinking of releasing the movie on the OTT platform Netflix in the first week of January, coinciding with the festival of Sankranti.
