Babita Singh Reporting is a quiet crime thriller that works more through its
characters than flashy twists. Babita, an underestimated police officer, returns to her in-laws’ town and gets pulled into the murder of her childhood friend. What begins as an investigation gradually becomes a personal journey as she starts questioning her marriage, her choices and even her confidence as a cop.
Nimisha Sajayan is easily the best thing about the film. She keeps Babita’s character grounded and believable, especially in the quieter moments. The mystery itself is interesting, but I liked the emotional side of the story more than the actual investigation.
The pacing is a little slow, and don’t expect a huge, twist-heavy thriller. But the realistic setting and restrained performances give it a nice, grounded feel.
🔥 What Works
✔ Nimisha Sajayan is excellent
✔ Natural and believable performances
✔ Personal angle adds emotional depth
✔ Mystery keeps you curious
✔ Good small-town atmosphere
⚠️ What Doesn’t
✖ Slow in parts
✖ Some twists are predictable
✖ Could have been tighter
🏁 Verdict
Babita Singh Reporting is more character drama than conventional crime thriller, and that’s actually where it works best. It takes its time and lets Babita’s transformation drive the story.
If you like grounded investigative dramas without excessive action, give it a try.

A thriller with a lot of nuance.

I felt the movie was a bit all over the place.
It was a murder mystery but also a movie with a social lesson about respecting women at home and the work place. The only saving
Vijay Kulkarni
It was a decent movie, with a simple plot and daily struggles shown very
appropriately.

This is Nimisha Sajayan's world and we're just living in it.
BSR was slow, the type of pace you'd expect from Mollywood but she pretty much carried the whole film.
