Audience Member a thought provoking story of identity and self-fulfilment. a Gem! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Sólida, pero no excepcional. Muy bien hecha, pero no exenta de sus convencionalismos. / Solid, but not exceptional. Very well made, but not devoid of conventionalism. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Perhaps the best film of the initial Benegal quartet of movies. Smita Patil shows her amazing acting skills as she delivers probably the best lead role by an Indian actor. Easily one the best movie of Parallel cinema. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Didn't quite get it...too convulated? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
