Cheeni

The storyline of the movie is not much interesting but acting is good.

The sincere intent of the plot was quite evident in its execution. The performers had excelled in their respective domains. Alas! The title hardly ever succeeded in achieving that level of sweetness. The protagonist aka Chini needed a lot of grooming especially in the department of dialogue delivery. Paired alongside the stalwarts she had a lot to live up to and she fell below expectations.

Good story but should have take a realistic approach at the end

The movie has a very cery refreshing and different story line. All the actors aced in their portrayals of their respective characters. Lovely screenplay. What lacking was a proper direction. The director couldn't give thd movie a proper direction. So all the incidents keep coming one after another in a very very haphazard manner. Suddenly uou will feel that you are losing the track of the whole movie. Such a bold and unconventional story needed a much stronger direction. The actor pulled the movie as much as they could. Also the movie was dealing with stereotype in so many ways. But it failed to say that out loud somewhere. The cire thing Cheeni was dealing with the conflict between her mother and her idea of mother, her idea of rebel and rebel. So things were needed to be addressed in a few words somewhere. Hence after having so many critical high points, the movie still feel like lacking a few things.

One of the very good movies with mother-daughter relationship. Thought the ending would be slightly different than this usual, though. Madhumita has done a splendid job in bringing the shades in the character. Nice and apt music from Amit-Ishan. Great one from you, Mainak!!
