    Molecule Review: Ribbon (6 Stars)

    What put me terribly off is the concocted diversity of issues that a couple face in Rakhee Sandilya's Ribbon, a sweet little film that turns sour right when you are enjoying it. But that's exactly the whole point of showcasing what a couple transforming into a nuclear family face in a metro city in India. From unabashed gender discrimination at work to familial tiffs to issues with the functioning of a household, Ribbon has it all, topped with a violent performance by Kalki Koechlin and an equally competing one by Sumeet Vyas. Parenthood hits them like a typhoon in the US and all that follows is what I like to call new-age problems that do not have solutions. Along with fitting music and numbing dialogues by Raghav Dutt, director Sandilya takes her viewers on a journey that is relatable and nonchalant, eventually taking them to the end of a cliff and threatening that she will push. Ribbon is heartbreaking but it does not fool its audience. It has its flaws - with the major one being convolution - but then indie films have stories to tell. With it with your partner and you will take away a thing or two. TN.

    A successful attempt to show some real middle income family problems.. Lead actors are brilliant..

    Kalki - Though she is already one of my favourites, but I used to think that she can only do justice with a character that is outgoing, modern, free-spirited, carefree, super energetic, youthful and somewhat irresponsible but this movie, to a happy surprise, broke that myth in my head. Her character in this movie is an ambitious woman but at the same time is a loving mother who cares a lot about her family and is trying hard to balance the responsibilities of a mother, a wife, a daughter and her career. Kalki perfectly fitted in the character.

    Sumeet - I've always seen him in supporting roles and all I could see was that, he is not a bad actor but in this movie he had one of the two lead roles and he was brilliant in his performance! After this movie, he is a new name added in my list of good actors.

    Urban Family Drama

    Sahana and Karan are young couples who lives in Mumbai City leading a middle class life. The story of the movie portrays the changes happens to the smooth going life of them and becomes rocky when Sahana got pregnant. It shows how they manage their parenthood along with the jobs, EMI's and meeting the work deadlines.

    A realistic and genuine approach to the issues and challenges faced by young couples in marriage life. Kalki and Sumeet both did a really good job as Sahana and Karan, it was a perfect choice for Kalki.

    Impressive!

    It portrays the unprecedented and pragmatic challenges of a couple especially woman in India, the resistances in her organisation during her pregnancy. Then as parent, they came to know their child has been abused. These problems are inevitable and it tests your character as couple - how you can address it as team.

    This movie is underrated, I believe people should encourage such initiatives.

    Office scenes r very natural

    Watch #Ribbon if u r deciding on getting hitched. Definitely watch #Ribbon if u plan to have a baby. Koechlin is terrific as the career-conscious mother. She is very believable. Her office scenes r very natural n relatable. Vyas lends very good support as her caring husband. Director Sandilya has narrated a sensitive n sensible story. Looks like she has taken her job very seriously. Full marks to her. The tough n ruthless corporate world has been very well depicted. Rating 4/5.
