An Interesting Concept that shines in parts

A racy first hour with a fascinating opening episode. Gets into a grave situation by becoming tech-dependent in the latter. Repetitive scenes that are neither inventive nor intense is the main drawback for an idea that could have been a lot more.(more)

Vishnu Vishal's dreary psycho thriller collapses from within

Given all the efforts lead star Vishnu put in for his physical transformation, and the hopes he pinned on the film for years, Aaryan wasn't really worth dying for. It certainly isn't a Ratsasan - a strawberry to that, oh, sorry, 'raspberry.'(more)

A crime--thriller that sticks the landing

Aaryan pulls itself together in the second half. The "how" of the murders and the ticking clock deliver some genuinely racy, interesting thrills. Vishnu Vishal carries the film well, and the finale, which traps him in the killer's story, is well-staged. Shraddah Srinath plays an effective TV host embroiled in the criminal plot. A steady thriller, albeit the social cause felt like a forced final chapter.(more)

Vishnu Vishal stars in murder mystery that murders its own logic
