"Adithya Varma" is the third film based on Sandeep Vanga's stormy ode to misogyny. Frankly, we don't need one more version of the story of an insufferably arrogant doctor who insists on performing operations in a drunken state, pulls a girl out of her classroom and insists she is his girlfriend, and feels his grandmother is the wisest woman in the world (which she probably is).

It is a film that wants to embrace all of the original's audacity without being held accountable for the trespasses that the other version were held guilty of.
