Merry Christmas review

The film merits a watch in a theatre purely for the risk-taking and the thrill and intrigue it offers, according to Republic. The film lived up to the hype surrounding it since the release of the teaser with its climax, leaving the audience divided. 

Harsh Bhagwatula, in his review to Republic wrote, “With Merry Christmas, it becomes all the more evident that Sriram Raghavan is one of the fewer filmmakers left who is interested in exploring cinema from a purely aesthetic perspective. While one of the protagonists does have a tragic backstory which offers a subtle comment on gender power dynamic in couples, Merry Christmas equally works purely as an enticing whodunit where every scene has a little something to offer.”

Merry Christmas marks the Tamil debut of Katrina Kaif, director Sriram Raghavan, and music composer Pritam, while it is the third Hindi film for Vijay Sethupathi.
