Reception


A critic from The Hindu wrote "As the title suggests, Mei is about finding the truth behind The Curious Case of A Missing Girl. But it’s a weakly-scripted movie that doesn’t quite take off." Times of India wrote "The story and characters look too good on paper with some twists and a few engaging sequences. [..] However, the making of a slick thriller like this could have been more gripping as it lacks any sharp cuts or edge of the seat moments". A critic from The New Indian Express wrote "One of the oft-used conclusions drawn about a middling movie is that it has its heart in the right place. Unfortunately, for Mei, a film based on organ trafficking, I can’t quite say that". A critic from Sify wrote "Overall, ‘Mei’ is a watchable thriller for the research work done by the young team, the strong supporting cast and the crisp run time".
