Rishi, our one-eyed inspector, is a character you can't help but root for as he digs into the strange occurrences surrounding a series of murders. The film does a fantastic job of keeping you guessing, with twists that are both surprising and thought-provoking. However, it occasionally stumbles over its own ambition, with some scenes feeling a bit drawn out. The chemistry between Rishi and his sub-inspectors, Ayyanar and Chitra, adds a nice touch of camaraderie, making the film more enjoyable. While it isn’t a horror film per se, it does have its share of eerie moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat. If you're looking for something different that blends investigative drama with supernatural elements, Inspector Rishi is definitely worth a watch. Show less
