Rating - 3.75/5
A beautiful tale portraying the insecurities,foibles,whims and fancies of a young girl through a realistic template.
The story moves through the life of a young obedient high school girl developing an infatuation and how the mother diplomatically brings
her teenage daughter to a stage of self realisation about the fantasies and immature behaviour in a teenage girl.
Shuchi Talati has conceived a sublime thought for the movie and has executed it perfectly onto the screen. She has effortlessly taken the viewers through contents like sexuality,sex education,self pleasure,self exploration and immature relationships through intricate moments that can be well connected by everyone who have passed through that life stage. The intriguing screenplay has kept the audience completely attached to the screens with exemplary performances from the central characters.
Splendid performance by Preeti Panigrahi showing raw emotions from love, excitement and anxiety to lost,void and conflict. Subtle performance by Kani Kusruthi as a caring mother. Impressive performances were made by Kesav Binoy,Devika Shahani & Kajol Chugh.
Special mention to the Cinematographer,the editor & the casting director for their effort in giving this timeless visual craft.
The audience after closure of the movie may feel that whether Shuchi has given the title to the movie on a pessimistic note. A great movie that is worth watching to cherish your adolescence fantasies and mischievousness.
