Prajwal, who plays DD, Arjun’s best friend, brings in some light humor, but his character doesn’t feel fully fleshed out. He’s there to listen to Arjun’s problems but doesn’t contribute much beyond that. Similarly, Sujay Shashtry’s role as a police inspector provides some comedic moments, but his character is forgettable and lacks development.

Harini Shreekanth, as Sheela, Arjun’s neighbour and supposedly a social media influencer turned cook, adds a modern touch to the film. However, while her performance is competent, it doesn’t fully fulfill the role.

Vijay Raghavendra appears briefly as Dr. Vikas, providing some medical context to the strange events. However, his character doesn’t add much to the exploration of Arjun’s inner struggles.

The pacing of the film is another issue. While the strange and unpredictable nature of the plot keeps things interesting at first, it eventually slows down and feels drawn-out. The film spends too much time on events that don’t help push the story forward. Arjun’s high-society lifestyle could have been a way to explore the pressures of modern relationships, but other subplots prevent these themes from being fully explored, and that never fully delivers.

As the credits roll, the film leaves you with many questions: If the day comes when men can experience pregnancy, will they handle it with the same emotional depth as women? Would a man truly understand the complexities of fatherhood if he had to bear a child? Maybe, one day, we’ll find out
