...for a film whose source is extraordinary, the beats are familiar.

Songs of Paradise could’ve worked as a metaphor for post-Independence Kashmir, but instead, it’s like a bedtime story for five-year-olds.

Songs of Paradise is like a 1950s movie that has time-traveled to the present day.

3.5/5

Renzu’s film is steeped in nostalgia, not only for the soundscape of Radio Kashmir but also for the syncretic culture of the Valley. Here, music bridges divides, poetry shapes thought, and a young girl’s song becomes an assertion of identity.

3.5/5

The film beautifully transports you to that bygone era, making you feel as if you’re watching life as it once was. What makes it special is that it stays true to its intent, never crowding the plot with anything unnecessary or loud.

What Songs of Paradise gets right is the casting of Soni Razdan, and director Danish Renzu and the actress herself add the right blend of innocence and haughtiness to her character.
