The acting of the actors in this film is very good and they live their roles. This film also has a very good message.

This film has a message that can make the public aware that bullying and body-shamming often occur around us or that we are perpetrators and can also be victims of body-shamming. Therefore, this film accidentally gives a message to bullies not to do this because it has a tremendous effect on the victim. And there is also one very good quote in this film, namely "Change Insekyur to Be Grateful".
