The CinePearl Take
Mitra’s direction balances sweeping battle sequences with intimate courtroom intrigue, letting the mythic figure of Devi emerge as both a folk hero and a nuanced woman torn between duty and desire. Though the cast remains largely unknown, the lead—played by newcomer Riya Banerjee—delivers a magnetic performance that anchors the film’s emotional core. The pacing occasionally lags in the middle act, but the climactic uprising restores momentum and underscores the film’s central theme of collective empowerment.
