I do not know how to describe this movie. It's not a movie but an EMOTION! Or rather a tsunami of emotions!!!
The CINEMATOGRAPHY itself is so BEAUTIFUL that it will break your heart! I was so mesmerized, that I rewinded and rewatched some scenes 20-30 times!
The story is simple and straightforward. It's no mystery what happened even though the directors and writers could have infused some intrigue. And that's my only gripe. They revealed what happened too early and they should have kept their cards close to their heart to maintain some suspense.
But the BEAUTY of the movie has not suffered because of that. The HEART of this movie is based on EMOTIONAL COMPLEXITY. Mother-daughter relations, jealousy, competition, that eternal strive to gain the approval of your parents!
SONGS are another highlight of this film. Drawing on our folklore, spiritual and mesmarizingly haunting!
There were a few hiccups in acting from Tripti Dimri but all the others carried their roles to superlative PERFECTION!
In this era where Bollywood churns disappointing gutter movies so often, this one stands out like a diamond in a coal mine! You will not regret watching this!
