Cast[]

Production[]

Run was originally intended to be a web series for Aha. It was planned as an 8-episode series with each episode spanning 20 minutes. However Allu Aravind, who is a part of Aha's team, believed that Run should be an original feature film.[1]

Principal photography took place for 24 days, between October and November 2019.[1]

Release[]

The film was released directly on the OTT platform Aha, on 29 May 2020.[2]

Reception[]

Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu, called the film "A lacklustre psychological thriller." While praising Navdeep's performance, Dundoo stated that the screenplay was predictable and could have been better executed.[3] The Times of India gave the film one-and-a-half stars out of five and heavily criticized the film for its incoherent script and a poorly-written screenplay.[4] Pratyush Parasaraman writing for the Film Companion, also gave a negative review for the film.[5]
