The film manages to entertain as well as inform. Rajisha Vijayan will play the lead role in the film.
Radhika (Rajisha) is a cyber expert who runs her own cyber security start-up. He is a very bold and intelligent man who does not mortgage his morals even in the face of money which shows complete sincerity in the work he does. Radhika believes that privacy is so important to everyone that access to it can never be allowed. But she is changed by the cyber attack she once faced from a group of criminals and the subsequent violence against her father (Srinivasan) who was a lawyer. Radhika is forgetting all the morals and manners she had shown till then. The story of the ‘pest’ unfolds through her and her struggles, which later set out to avenge them.
In this movie, you can see each of the actors competing and acting. That’s a plus. Rajisha’s Radhika’s character captivates the audience with her hand-to-hand performance from beginning to end. Rajisha is a shining cyber expert who fights for justice who never gives up confidence. Srinivasan also portrays the father of a boy who is very worried about his daughter but who is his daughter’s best friend, support and celebrates his retirement. The combination scenes between the two were so beautiful. This is one of the best father-daughter combo in Malayalam cinema.
The performances of Manikandan Pattambi, Ranjith Sekhar, Mahesh Nair and Anand Manmadan, who came as villains, should be mentioned later. They have been able to make their roles the best they can be. Vijay Babu also plays a policeman named Charles.
