I am a huge fan of Mukta Barve but here Priya Bapat surprised me. She is so convincing and emotive. Love the story and the dialogues are to the point.

Hoping to catch this in theatre but not enough shows in Mumbai but very much glad that I was able to watch it on Amazon Prime.

Do watch this Gem of a movie.....

A relief to see an emotional film about a woman's journies laced with a woman's voice and a woman's telling of it. Pratima joshi has done a lovely job in bringing out the emotions of this take of the relationship between a step mother and a step daughter. But more than that even it's a take of a woman breaking free really of the effect of a hard fatherhood and the inheritance that has left on her. We get to see the mind and heart of woman bereft of a mother's touch in her upbringing and also how she ends up becoming her father, a man she almost hated. And then escapes his fate by a hair's breadth thanks to her step mom. Priya Bapat shines. And so does Mukta Barve. Both women playing ages at times which are far removed from their own. Priya doesn't ever overdo the young part even though she's playing what seems like a 15 year old at times. And Mukta is so unassuming I kept wishing I'd see more of her.

I am a native Kannadiga, this is my 5th Marathi movie I watched and I must say marati movie industry has some of the amazing gems. This movie has literally taken me into Priya's life. I could feel the exact feelings she was feeling. The feels are unveiled one after the other which is just mind blowing. No drama, no unncessary songs or scenes. Just pure work of art. Kudos to the team and the actors.

Amazing performance by Priya Bapat and Mukta Barve. Story line and dialogues are superb. Do watch the movie.

Excellent screen play adapted from Gauri Deshpande's story brings to fore the unemotional unattached age of the present young ME in generation that believes in in your face lifestyle and relationship that goes against the Indian ethos.

Brilliant acting from Priya Bapat and supported by ever so perfect Mukta Barve brings meaningful life to the relevant story.

The movie is masterfully directed by Pratima Joshi; not a scene out of place, not an action incomplete, nothing missed in the background. Professional editing keeps engaging pace.
