The film continues to enjoy a loyal following. With the recent post, fans flooded the comments reminiscing about the movie’s deeper meanings, its strong female lead, and its unique storytelling. Many called it “ahead of its time” and praised Triptii for breathing life into a character that felt both mythical and real.
