Presented in a new genre called the Southern Odd Fiction, the movie raises the bar for Sandalwood in terms of technical standards and filmmaking. If Kgf had set a certain standard for the industry, Asn takes it up by a notch. The unusually lengthy trailer had set the tone for what could be expected.
