Indian Neo-Realism mixed with melodrama. It's a combination of identifiers that sends shivers down my spine, and the film doesn't disappoint. It's a sluggish, 2-hour-long social drama (with some horrible musical influences) that never redeems itself, but only gets worse as it progresses. A film about self-sacrifice where things just get worse for the lead character. The performances aren't that great, the cinematography is very basic and the drama piles up endlessly. The music was pretty grating too, making the 2-hour runtime a real obstacle. Not my type of film, I really disliked this one. Read all
