aarsha j @RT56781289 02/23/2025 Jeo Baby delivered an outstanding film that truly deserves more recognition. The actors gave exceptional performances, and the movie tackles a relevant issue that resonates with current times. See more 03/21/2022 While the message of the movie was great, it could've fit in 30 mins. I was exhausted with it after the 3rd time they showed her cook, clean, do the dishes and cater to the incompetent and babied men. My GF and her mother stopped watching it soon after too though they seemed pretty glued to it early on. I would've recommended the movie to others if it was less than half as long as it actually is. See more 12/30/2021 The filmmaker has shown abnormal mysogenistic society via a story that looks absolutely normal. We see it everyday almost in every household without giving it a thought. This film makes us realize how toxic the life is for many women - See more 10/04/2021 A really well made movie! Exposes the orthodoxy and deep-rooted patriarchy that exists in society. Convincingly portrayed by the lead actors, this makes for compulsive viewing. Go for it, you won't be disappointed! I would place it amongst the really powerful cinema I have watched in quite some time. See more 06/03/2021 Holds an unflinching mirror to the worst aspects of Indian society See more 04/12/2021 The movie is a well made propaganda film. It starts off quite well showing the travails of an Indian housewife managing a big house, and sloppy men. In the second half, the movie sharply veers off towards bashing the customs of the majority community and political messaging. The key points that the movie seems to convey: - Hindu households treat women badly, especially during mensuration time. They are confined in dingy rooms and no one can touch them or be touched by them. In the year 2021! - The women who supported the Sabarimala movement are essentially of slavish mentality who suffer from Stockholm syndrome. - The Sabarimala customs are essentially patriarchal and are meant to demean women. - Eating beef is something most Hindus do, though secretly in their homes. Beef eating is liberating! - Men who follow the Hindu customs have little regard for women and their well being. Sorry Mr. Jeo Baby, your attempt to please your missionary and leftist masters comes out glaringly in this attempt. See more Read all reviews
