      Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express The real strength of the film lies in the way the director manages to say it like it is. [Nandita] Das pulls no punches as she lays out her characters, and articulates their points of view without descending into mawkishness or melodrama. Apr 26, 2019 Full Review Namrata Joshi Outlook Nandita Das's thought-provoking first outing Firaaq examines the impact of communal violence on human relationships. Jan 31, 2019 Full Review Film Companion Staff Film Companion This pithy and haunting film goes deep into the psychological and mental anguish the communal riots caused, and through that, makes a plea for peace and harmony.
