Chhatriwali

This movie seeks to speak on behalf of women who suffer in silence with the discomfort of the side effects of the contraceptive pill when their husbands do not use a condom for whatever reasons. We have a young chemistry graduate ( Rakul Preet) residing in a small town Karnal in Haryana who likes to apply principles of chemistry in day to day life and takes up a job as the quality head of a condom manufacturing company for lack of a better choice. Since the job is likely to cause embarrassment to her family she hides this fact but not for long leading to friction with her husband ( Sumeet Vyas), with her family and the orthodox community of the town in general. She then starts a crusade to educate and instigate local women to pressurise their husbands to use condom and free them from the pain of the side effects of the pill. This is not as easy as it seems as the women discover. ( In a lighter vein, the movie may not go down too well with pill manufacturers).

Director Tejas Deoskar just about manages to give an average treatment to the plot keeping it a bit too simplistic. No in depth or incisive analysis of the subject at hand but just skimming the surface keeping in mind the sensibilities and the taboos involved besides considerations of the censors and the box office. The small town sensibilities are also not so convincingly shown. A female teacher waiting in a make shift arrangement in a field to teach sex education to school kids seems too far fetched. The reference to Kalpana Chawla doesn't seem to fit in. The acting of all is barely average and no complaints on that.

This movie had a potential but it's did not stand on it. The story has proper start but has lead character meet each other, the story turn out fast phase and leave the main topic in first half. As the second half begin of movie, after that story catch the topic which the concept of that movie and should be carry first. Over all the movie is ok. Rakul Preet Singh and Sumeet Vyas work was good but supporting characters catch the movie. The character which is been carried out by Rajesh Tailang steal catch whole movie and I love that part of it. Over all at conclusions movie is good for one time watch.

This is actually a movie with social awareness. I initially thought this movie is about some fun elements related one but when I stated watching i was wrong.

This movie is like Padman and Toilet where those movies talk about their specific content and chhatriwali talks about condom

In this generation people are running out of stories like love story , terrorism serial killer, auto biography, mythology etc.. But we have superb subject around us like Chatrwali I truely appreciate team and support for this movie..

There are many such things where people need to get awareness like miscarriages , preganancy problem , teenagers misusing their private parts themselves without proper knowledge etc.. About all these things people won't talk openly but end up with disasters without taking proper precautions or treatment etc. . i encourage team to explore more about such subject and bring up with enriched story line screenplay like Chatriwali ..

I honestly liked pills side effect concept in this movie. I expect more realistic examples to be shown like that and let any topic to be explained in detail to student or anyone.

Still this movie has a great content and storyline.

People should watch understand and follow this.

A sensitive also bold stereotype topic handled well by Tejas Vijay who surprises us by adding Satish kaushik who charisma is effortless and easily steals the show ... Rakul preeth in another meaty role post successful performance in "DOCTOR G"...she does cute and expressive way carrying the film single handedly with some of the crispy performance by rajesh tailang and prachi Shah... Despite not being preachy early release of "JAN HITH MEIN JAARI" reminds well at places within a span of 6 months is a mild debacle for the flick.... Overall a good social msg whole heartedly presented by RSVP films falls flat as partly Entertaining.

Another misjuided social commentary - though meant to give messages on safe sex, only ends up misleading the public !

Condoms are good for safe sex and contraception pills does have issues - but here also the film does not talk about the full contraception options !

In the case here the optimal solution for the sister-in-law and / or brother in law like Vasectomy or Fallopian Tube tying (since they have completed their family long back) is not mentioned let alone suggested.

Also there are spermicide gels, female condoms etc. Which are also ignored completely !

Condoms are not the best form of contraception ! They are just one of the cheap options - but they are not infallable, good ones are costly, cause environment issues (construction of condoms are not at all green and they cause non degrading and non re-usable hazardous waste )
