Right released in theatres on 26 September 2025. Akshay Kumar of
Cinema Express gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "Put simply,
Right works in parts. What stops the Subramian Rameshkumar directorial from being a better film is his choice of tools to anchor the two halves. The decision to drive the entirety of the first half with smarts and the second half with emotions has cost the film dearly." Abhinav Subramanian of
The Times of India gave 2/5 stars and wrote "The single-location promise needs precise blocking and escalating stakes. Instead, the staging is static, reveals feel telegraphed, and the screenplay pivots toward a predictable social messaging track before looping back to the missing-boy thread. It gets a bit heavy-handed, especially in the second half; the death scene felt forced and preachy, which made it less impactful."
Dina Thanthi praised the film for its innovative plot, while criticising the flawed screenplay and the easily predictable scenes. == References ==
