Some stronger actors would have helped and a stronger script. But a good effort by the actors!

So this movie is actually remake of bengali movie Praktan. If u have not watched the brilliant performance of Prasenjit Chatterjee & Rituparna Sengupta in Praktan then u will not feel missing of that magical performance in this film and might find this film interesting. This is a bit different story than typical films of these days. Although it is a slow paced movie so keep that in mind.....

Good movie... very emotional movie this movie shows that the incomplete love has everything in it emotions, care, love, respect, fillings more then the complete love.. A failure in true love should watch that movie.

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!

I have watched Praktan and after watching that I feel nothing special for this hindi remake. If you are Bengali better watch Praktan.
