Review of the film :
This film is High Critical acclaim movies for children wholesome entertainment movie by mostly all critics but Box office collection wise film is flop.
Pragyan Mohanty from The Hindu newspaper appreciate the movie By saying “Halo is made of many charming moments and images. Sivan does employ the usual children’s cinema tropes and sentimentality, but helmed by some heartwarming performances and a bittersweet ending, Halo is ultimately an intimate coming-of-age tale.The extraordinary performance of Rajkumar Santoshi as Sasha’s father.A cherubic Benaf Dadachanji as Sasha is brilliant. Her scenes with the little puppy, especially their first meeting, bring unbridled joy. Their camaraderie moves you even more when Sivan reveals the young actress was scared of dogs. Benaf’s performance is the emotional core of the movie, and she keeps you invested in her vulnerability and resolve.”
