Just saw this amazing film with an expertly written screenplay, a stellar cast, and beautiful cinematography. It touches on so many issues (patriarchy, homophobia, parent-child relationship, etc.) and has so much depth. It's also touching and moving. With India's top court's recent historical ruling to decriminalize homosexuality, this film is timely.
Amazing Movie. A Queer movie which can makes the viewers get connected and emotional. Excellent acting and great writing. Struggles and homophobic reactions are clearly depicted.
P.s- Finally the LGBT movie with no sex as a priority but reality.

This is a story of a young man Kartik, who decides to come out to his conservative parents as gay. But beside being a coming out movie, thie film has portrayed many other aspects of a typical conservative Indian Family and the condition of the women there.
The story and the screenplay and the dialogues are so brilliant that while watching the movie, I felt like this is the story of my life. Felt like I'm watching me and my mother on the screen. The story is neither hyper optimistic - that shows being gay to be a widely accepted and welcome idea, age nor is this a pessimistic movie that focuses only on the struggles. This movie is realistic. As I'm going through the same phase as Kartik right now, I could really relate to all his emotions and they felt so real. I must admit that this movie has provided major strength to me to ascertain my decision of finally coming out to my parents.
This type of movies should be made more in numbers, so that they can influence a lot of people like us to live lives being themselves.
Absolutely incredible movie. A great story that has so much depth to it. Very engaging and it takes you through the journey of the mother son relationship, in an emotional and heart felt way. Beautifully made! Hats off to the producers!
Just watched the movie.... Beautifully made, very touching and so many emotionally moving scenes resonated with me, and am sure they did resonate likewise with a lot many people who watched the movie..... a very big heart felt thank you to the makers for making this movie!
Makes me feel hopeful that in the kind of scenario as depicted in the story, a happy-ending could be possible, after all!
