Aachari Baa

Who decided to keep the background sound so high that the dialog is not even audible in medium volumn settings?

With best of the actors (and indeed they did their best.. all of them) , with an awesome story line and with all the ingredients for a good movies, the director singlehandedly destroyed the movie.

I watched the movie till end for the charector of baa and Nina gupta (and others) acting performance

I have observed it lately that the new age hindi movies (like this one) lacks the creativity of film making and just follows a "format" and "modular" approach spoiling the creativity that we use to see in few decades old movies even when there were not so good movie making tech that time...

The more I see these movies the more my respect for good movie directors go high..

very very horrible direction of a "to be a good" movie.

The original Tamil movie had beautiful villages and peaceful music. Here it looks like we just entered Disco, loud music and lot of colors. The son extremely funny and unrealistic, characters didn't develop as expected. Senseless jokes and connection. The village looks so looks l like a set.

The movie doesn't even deserve rating. Dog is slow and worried. The Tamil had reason why mother in law couldn't be with them. As daughter in law is from North and there is language issue. But Hindi couldn't come up with something equivalent leaving people imagining what went wrong. Nether there is emotion about how son name and pickle impacted him.

5 Minutes into the movie, and I just had to turn it off. Background noise is awful, making it hard to hear the dialogue. I had to read the subtitles to understand, despite knowing the language.

So, I just did not want to put the extra effort of reading subtitles to keep up with the movie.

But, how did the movie get approved to be uploaded to the streaming platform without verifying the quality of the audio? That is beyond my understanding. JioHotstar, you need to do better quality control. I love Neena Gupta's acting and 3 stars are for her only. I wanted to watch it, but sorry Neena ji, couldn't bear such a bad quality of audio.

Maybe I had high expectations but unfortunately, the film fell somewhat flat for me due to its lack of depth. The story follows Jaishnaviben, a Gujarati elderly woman who runs a pickle business in her village as she struggles to adjust to city life when she visits her son in Mumbai after 10 years.

The film raises important questions about relationships..what defines them? Is blood ties necessary, or can love, care and 'being there' be enough? While the movie touches on these themes, it doesn't delve as deeply as I had hoped. Jaishnaviben's struggles to connect with her son and his family serve as a poignant reminder that relationships transcend biology.

What struck me was the protagonist's deeper connection with her son's golden retriever. The dog's unconditional love and acceptance are often more relatable than the distant affection of one's own grown children. This subtle yet powerful dynamic speaks volumes about our human need for connection.

Neena Gupta shines as Jaishnaviben, bringing quiet dignity to her character and making her struggles feel real and relatable. Her performance is the highlight of the film.

While the screenplay is predictable and simplistic with gaps in character development, Neena Gupta's performance and the catchy song that I loved it - Chammak Chammak make it worth watching.

Background music is so loud, that you can't listen to actual audio in whole movie. Background music should be too low, and actual audio should be high.

Even though content is good, but movie can't be enjoyed because of loud background music.

Story is worth watching with family, but you can't listen to content sound because of loud background, which is too irritating.

What's the point of delivering nice content with bad sound, it makes watching painful.

The content depicts the relationship between mother and son, and mother's passion for her business for making and selling acchaar.

Please work on sound quality.
