Reception

Indiaglitz rated 2/5 and said that "Achayans needs to have been reworked in a different way. A more sharper script would have made it more entertaining".[7] Deccan Chronicle stated that the movie is a one time watch and rated 2.5/5.[8] The Times of India rated the movie 2.5/5 and said that "Overall, Achayans is a film that requires some patience to watch and doesn't quite qualify as an entertainer".[9] Though the critic reviews were unfavourable, the film managed to be one of the profitable ventures of 2017. The movie made on a budget of 10cr and collected above 15cr worldwide officially announced.[10][11]

gollark: ```As companies embrace buzzwords, a shortage of blockchain cryptocurrency connoisseurs opens. Only the finest theoretical code artisans with a background in machine learning (20 years of experience minimum) and artificial general intelligence (5+ years of experience) can shed light on the future of quantum computing as we know it. The rest of us simply can't hope to compete with the influx of Stanford graduates feeding all the big data to their insatiable models, tensor by tensor. "Nobody knows how these models really work, but they do and it's time to embrace them." said Boris Yue, 20, self-appointed "AI Expert" and "Code Samurai". But Yue wasn’t worried about so much potential competition. While the job outlook for those with computer skills is generally good, Yue is in an even more rarified category: he is studying artificial intelligence, working on technology that teaches machines to learn and think in ways that mimic human cognition. You know, just like when you read a list of 50000000 pictures + labels and you learn to categorize them through excruciating trial and error processes that sometimes end up in an electrified prod to the back and sometimes don't. Just like human cognition, and Yue is working on the vanguard of that.```

gollark: It was a joke...
gollark: I have a self-built desktop running Arch and a cheap server from Ebay running Alpine. They work quite well.
