Ananya Panday's film offers an intriguing concept about AI's impact on life and love but falters with a tedious execution, ultimately failing to deliver a compelling message.

CTRL, a Netflix thriller by Vikramaditya Motwane, stars Ananya Panday and Vihaan Samat. It follows Nella, who uses an AI app to erase her cheating boyfriend, only to lose control. The film has garnered highly-positive reviews for its engaging narrative and performances.

Ananya Panday-starrer Vikramaditya Motwane's CTRL is a pacy thriller that could very well be called Black Mirror India.

Ananya Panday's latest offering, CTRL, which is a digital-only released premiered on Netflix this Friday. If you are also looking for a good title to watch this weekend and get worthy entertainment, check out the first hand reviews of CTRL shared by netizens who have already watched the film.

Director Vikramaditya Motwane succeeds in creating the mood, moments, and message but the thriller 'CTRL' lacks the killer punch

Also starring Vihaan Samat, Aparshakti Khurana, Suchita Trivedi, Devika Vatsa, Ravish Desai, etc in key roles, CTRL happens to be one of the most anticipated releases of the year. Interestingly, CTRL revolves around a young couple Joe Mascarenhas and Nella Awasthi (played by Vihaan and Ananya respectively) whose life revolves around social media.

Ananya Panday and Vihaan Samat take full ‘control’ of this thriller which will act as a wake-up call for many!

A bump in the relationship compels Nella into signing away her privacy to an app called CTRL. The AI avatar Allen (voiced by Aparshakti Khurana) promises to be a new friend, philosopher and guide. Just as surely as Allen is an anagram for Nella, CTRL isn’t the tech Utopia Nella thinks it is.

CTRL is packed with thrill, surprise and novelty. Vikramaditya Motwane opts for a screenlife format that makes the overall experience even more immersive.
