I have seen the film but reading these “notes” for your lucky students was like seeing it on a big, big screen with every pore visible. Thank you, Amitava… you always open our eyes to unfiltered beauty.

Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. ❤️ This film had pulled me apart and also soothed me in more ways than one. You writing reminded me of the ache I felt when Shoaib returns home and gives the sandals to Chandan's mother. Thank you for writing this.

I LOVED this post. I underlined so many thoughts. And yes, the India I know from film is of "Slumdog Millionaire" and "Marigold Hotel" ilk. I will watch this movie. I'm so grateful for your posts - you enlarge my world.
