Tejas Nair:

Irakal (Victims) is a brilliant tour de force of a film, taking us without ado into the mind and actions of a youth born with a silver spoon and grown up in reckless familial ecosystem where human vices are celebrated. It is a fascinating film, with the right amount of drama and thrills, which are only accentuated by the clever use of stunning music and effortless rustic cast performances. A must-watch.
