Kooki

Recently, I finished watching a movie called *Kooki*. It's more than just a movie-while it may seem like a simple story, the message it conveys has a powerful impact. The first 1 hour and 40 minutes are engaging enough to watch in one sitting, but what truly makes it outstanding are the last 16 minutes. They will make you cry and feel every word deeply. It's definitely a must-watch! Kooki's acting was far accurate. The way she portrayed the character is completely her quality. Her father's acting was so so. Why I'm saying this is this gentleman's acting is my favourite. Expectations from favorites goes high.

Great work by the team kooki. Seriously small film give more to the society.gang rape. Films on rape often focus on courtroom drama or investigations. But is justice enough? Kooki challenges this, showcasing the lasting scars a survivor carries. In Assam, Kooki is gangraped and left for dead. As she heals, loved ones offer support, SP Mandira Singh (Dipannita Sharma) and Dr Priyadarshini Pator (Ritu Shivpuri) rally around her. Then a journalist Navnita's (Devoleena Bhattacharjee) debate on and a video Kooki uploads begs the answer: Why isn't rape considered heinous like murder? This question forms the film's core.

The narrative paints Kooki's pre-tragedy life: a teenager's world that has loving parents-Dhananjay Mishra (Rajesh Tailang) and mother Suman (Rina Rani), best friend Rashmi (Nancy Singh), and a fledgling romance with Saptarishi (Bodhisattva Sharma). Post-assault, the focus shifts to the emotional and psychological devastation. Along the way, it critiques the nation that has had many amendments but is still stuck in the same place where it fails to protect its women.

I can't say more go and just watch this movie.

"Kooki" is nothing short of a cinematic triumph. Directed by Pranab J Deka, with a compelling story and production by Dr. Junmoni Devi Khaund, this film brings to life the heart-wrenching journey of Kooki, a young girl navigating the aftermath of a brutal gang rape in Assam. This film tackles a burning societal issue with a raw and unflinching approach, making it a crucial watch.

The performances are truly exceptional. Ritisha Khaund delivers a deeply moving portrayal that resonates on an emotional level, adding significant depth to the narrative. The entire cast and crew deserve immense appreciation for their dedication to telling such a powerful story.

"Kooki" goes beyond mere entertainment-it's a call to action, urging viewers to reflect on justice, societal norms, and the resilience required to overcome trauma. This film's bold narrative is both a testament to the strength of the human spirit and a sobering reminder of the work still needed in our society. Bravo to everyone involved for creating a masterpiece that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact.

A truly epic story and great performances by each and every actor. Moreover the performance by Ritisha Khaund was mind boggling. Every second of her presence gave goosebumps to me. Rajesh Tailang also showed his great performance and his presence was enough to go through 1000 of emotions in every line he delivered through his role. Majestic Performance by all other actors. A special shoutout to Ritisha Khaund, a new talent who blew everyone's mind by her performance. The portrayal of the state of Assam was also very realistic and beautiful.

A realistic story with much more realistic performances by everyone. Kudos to the team.

One wet night, three sexually frustrated men rape a sixteen-year-old girl. There was one more guy who did not rape her, he was the only one who could have protected her, but he chose not to do anything. Her family, doctors, cops and the media supported her; the offenders were swiftly brought to justice. But the victim is still miserable. Why? Because rape is not a one-time act. Rape has not just damaged her private parts, it has harmed her life, her convictions, her self-worth and her aspirations. Yet in our country, rape is not regarded as the most "odious" crime. #Kooki is a poignant drama with good performances by the entire cast. This film needs your love and support, do watch it in theatres. Rating 3.5/5.
