Performance-
Dilip Roger plays his part well. Considering this to be his maiden venture, he comes clean and good. The female leads Sana and Geethika come and go in the film.
Analysis-
All said, the movie speaks loud on an interesting issue. What begins on an interesting note loses fizzle as it progresses. Eventually, Udumban proceeds on cliched path. However the director can be lauded for taking a serious issue and gioving it a commercial colour.
