Don't Trouble The Trouble is a good fantasy premise that is elevated with Fahadh Faasil's performance and the charming presence of Ssara Palekar.

Kaala Bhairava’s music is a mixed bag. A few moments benefit from the background score, which is slightly better than the film’s other technical departments, but the overall effort is still underwhelming.

AP7AM · Maduri Madhu

Don't Trouble the Trouble begins with an interesting fantasy concept but struggles to turn that idea into an engaging film. Slow narration, stretched scenes, weak writing and emotions that fail to connect make the journey tedious.

How is the fan score worked out?

It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
