-A clever albeit sometimes frightening satire that applauds women who use patriarchal principles to their benefit until they can eventually subvert them

-The tone of this film is so expertly constructed in a way that elicits fear and relief in equal parts

-And in a country where it seems like truly all humanity is lost, this film paints a hopeful yet realistic picture of found family

-It fills my heart to see Hindi film transcend from crowd pleasing blockbusters to these artisanal portraits of substance and opinion

-First unexpected plot twist after SO LONG

-Thank you Bollywood for a script that showcases the duality of feminism, with equal weight placed on education/independence and a (semi) classic love story

-Lastly, cheers to such multi dimensional female characters who were written with both gentleness and ambition 

-Kiran Rao, I can’t wait to see what’s next for you (also power couple af). Hindi film is really turning over a new leaf and I’m here for it

***Found out they changed the leads’ skin tones and there’s talk of plagiarism :( Still can’t deny this execution though, if Lydia Tar taught me anything
