I like the movies where there is no happy endings. The film that shows the journey and the journey doesn't end. I like it when audience is given their space to think and feel emotions. A background score which flows alongwith your thoughts. Dhuin is a perfect example of this.

Dhuin means fog. The film explains how life goes on, how one keeps chasing their dreams even though everything around them is hazey. Even if you are confused, underconfident, helpless, you got to stay on the course. Everyday is a new beginning but the same struggle.

The film is so perfectly slow that it transcends the feelings of protagonist, within you.

The moment i got to know through an IG post that a movie by Shoojit Sarkar is in theatres, I impulsively decided to watch it. While I read the plot while waiting for the gates to open, I realised that none of my friend would have accompanied me to watch this stuff even if I had asked any of them. Not surprisingly, we were only 4 people in the whole theatre room and the movie started.

The build up of the movie is really intriguing and so perfectly slow that it gives ample room to associate and give your own perspective towards the character and his emotions. First half of the movie speeds up to the interval in no time. You are left with no clue with where the story is going to take you.

But the later half, could have been little more interesting. It may shoot thoughts back in your mind that what is the point of all this that is been shown. When you try to take some lesson out of the whole drama, you realise that its just a fantastic story of a man who have survived extraordinary situations.

Some of the one liners in the movie are the gems that are going to stay with you for few monents giving some extra thoughts. If i try to fit this movie in few words it is a story of persistence of a guy given 100 days to live and it explores the relationship between a patient & his doctor, patient & his nurse, divorced father & his daughter, survivor & the society.

In my opinion the movie is worth a watch as you won't find such movies often in theatres recently.
