The song "Singapenne" was received with an unbelievable response by fans all over the world. It might have voiced out for the raise of football in India, but the film failed to satisfy cinema lovers. The whole film speaks about the equality and freedom that women deserve, but the same film had only a ten minute screen presence for the lady super star, Nayanthara.
