4/5
If you take away the slow-brewing attraction that serves as an appealing logline, you still have a mighty fine picture about a village girl who wants to defy the patriarchy and stand on her own two feet in the city. Go to Full Review
Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail 04/18/2019
3/4
The film, from Indian screenwriter and documentary director Rohena Gera, is well-paced and properly sentimental. Go to Full Review
Maggie Lee Variety 05/17/2018
A Cinderella tale of sorts, the film nonetheless gains gravity for its insight into Indian social rigidities that tether both impoverished villagers and well-heeled urbanites. Go to Full Review

With Is Love Enough? Sir, Rohena Gera desists viewing togetherness as love’s end goal, gently uncovering the gifts of being in it instead. Go to Full Review
Proma Khosla Mashable 03/05/2021
Sir is a cinematic triumph. Gera and Shome compromise nothing in a full and poignant portrayal of India's working class, without turning Ashwin and his social strata into caricatures of wealthy, Anglicized demons. Go to Full Review

A C @angelalovessweetmovies 12/08/2023 Acting and the writing and setting are extraordinary!! Thank you for a beautiful film! See more Joseph F 08/06/2023 This is a story about a young and uppity architect who is still finding himself after he cancels his wedding to a girl in the same upper middle class level. The girl, his house help, is from the lower class but she has the guts and intelligence to make it in the big city. And somehow, love will find a way. This is such a simple yet profound story of two people from different classes of society falling in love. The ending scene, which was so simple, can't give away, was perfect. See more Andrew H H 07/30/2023 Such a buoyant and airy film, with decent camera work and location shots, thrown in. The male lead is a little wooden, however. See more Ravi T 05/13/2023 I found this movie randomly on Netflix and I'm glad I did. I really enjoyed it. See more 12/15/2022 This film is like painting in negative space. It happens in the silences, in the space between action. Beautiful. Heart wrenching. See more N K 09/10/2022 Beautiful. Superb acting. Touching and sweet A rare find these days for films See more Read all reviews
