His life turns completely upside down when he meets a young girl named Divya (played brilliantly by child artist Ssara Palekar), who possesses genuine supernatural powers. What follows is a rollercoaster of fantasy, emotion, and life-changing realizations.
Overseas and Twitter Talk: Mixed-to-Positive

The chemistry between Fahadh Faasil and young Ssara Palekar is undoubtedly the heart and soul of the film.
