Maneesh R Manikandan Just when we thought we had seen it all débutant director Ashwin Saravanan bring to table new ways to frighten movie audience. Though I don't know much about camera and editing I can bet that it was good. I was completely immersed in the movie. Although some portions that seem to lag as it nears the climax it makes up with the climax twist that was unexpected and also touchy. Nayanthara was perfect. Her first role portraying as a mother the scenes with the baby oozes with motherly- hood. Aari and all others did their role neatly. I especially liked the acting of the friend of Nayan. I don't know whether its because have a crush on her now. She stuck to her character as a caring friend. Overall a thoroughly Enjoyable, Touchy, Frightening and Fresh Horror Thriller.

Tejo Kiran This is probably the best horror movie I have ever watched.Maya is even comparable to the Hollywood blockbuster "The Conjuring".It deserves such greatness.I really congratulate all the team,cast and crew of the movie.The story is very well built and organized and it is been shot so well in realistic places .The music part played a great role to make the audience feel the presence of a ghost.I really appreciate the captain of the ship,director for his efforts to make such a brilliant movie.And last but not least i guess Kollywood is competing with Hollywood by making such grandeur films.I am feeling proud to be a Indian

sharmila-g-rao Maya was on my list for a while and I was waiting eagerly for its release. I am an ardent horror movie lover. Loved the beginning, and the expectation was set and I really thought it would be brilliant.Pros: Brilliant cinematography. Good concept of a movie within a movie. Loved the male and female protagonists. The first half of the movie was really good.Cons: Second half was a complete let down and became extremely boring, people actually started laughing and giggling (it was that bad). The portion when they show three graves and how each of them gets killed is so so so long. You keep waiting for some fast-paced action and some kick, but it never comes. At this point, you start getting bored with the importance being given to cinematography over and over again, the pause for each scene is so much that it looks like they are waiting for an appreciation from you. The ring concept is old and very predictable. I actually got up relieved when the director announced the prequel in the movie, but sadly the movie was not over and I still had to tolerate it for another 15 mins.

Naveen Sankaran The opening shots, grippy editing and camera handling makes this movie to stand out from the other so called ghost thrillers that are being made in Thamizh cinema. As soon as the movie began, the plot was very clearly presented to us and so the intention of the director.The detailing is very good as it provides everything in the first half but we are left clueless about what they are relating to actually. We can get the clear view only in the second half. The acting of the lead characters are very crucial in this movie and they did their part very well. BGM and editing deserves special mention as they made this very gripping. Nayanthara did her part very well.Overall, it is a very well made thriller which deserves our attention. Must watch in theaters.
