Wow, Dhyan Sreenivasan's latest film is an absolute triumph in redefining cinema—if by redefining, you mean making us question our life choices. 'Secret' is aptly named because the secret must be why anyone thought this was a good idea.
Kudos to SN Swamy for turning a film into a crash course on synchronizers and obscure physics theories. Who needs compelling dialogue when you can have a lecture on science?
Dhyan Sreenivasan, stepping in as the hero despite his, let's say, robust physique, is truly something. The confidence there is admirable. And SN Swamy’s faith in this casting choice? Inspiring, considering it's not his money at stake.
The acting—if you can call it that—from Nyabagam and Hridayam fame Selvan is a study in the art of staring blankly into the void. Emotions are overrated anyway.
And Gregory, bless his soul, must have lost a bet to end up in this. Did he owe someone a favor?
Ranjith’s dialogue delivery takes us on a nostalgic trip back to high school drama class, only cringier. His talk about nature and barter systems? Well, it had us bartering our patience for sanity.
Poor Jakes Bejoy, trapped in this cinematic debacle. May his talents find a better home next time.
In conclusion, 'Secret' is 2 hours of your life you’ll never get back, but at least you’ll walk away with newfound knowledge on synchronizers. Silver linings, right?"
