Watched this movie thinking it would be a typical Bollywood boy meets stubborn girl kind of movie with no substance, however I was pleasantly surprised to find the direction and storyline of this movie. Unlike most Bollywood films this movie is relatable - there is no melodramatics or A-list stars, it just has a subtle storyline which in my opinion is ahead of its time. It is progressive whilst maintaining Indian authenticity, the female lead Aisha is a progressive character and the film manages to effectively demonstrate the challenges a marriage of two people with different aspirations can bring. It demonstrates the importance of a man & woman both staying true to themselves & not losing their own personalities or what's important to them just because they are married. It portrays a deep message of eternal love and compromise in such a simple yet effective manner. In my opinion the cast did superb & had me feeling their emotions. The ending thankfully wasn't rushed and left me feeling satisfied (I hate watching movies that leave you wandering). All in all a good movie & nice hidden gem!
