5. Laila¡¯s review

123Telugu rated the movie 2 out of 5 and a part of their review read, ¡°Laila is a silly, tedious and poorly executed film that fails to engage. Despite Vishwak Sen¡¯s efforts, the weak script, crass humour, and lack of depth make it a dull and unconvincing watch. With no emotional core, subpar writing, and uninspired direction, Laila ends up as a forgettable misfire that hardly justifies its existence.¡±
