“Some really decent performance, well written and directed , good production quality. and somehow satisfying ending but it could be more better.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e.the movie has no vulgar dialogue , no nude or dirty scenes. its pure simple , classic family drama. Its a movie about u0026quot;arranged marriageu0026quot; basically. a marriage with no feelings?. even the families of both bride and groom are decent and civilised. there are no such things that they are very bad to their children.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ethere are very minor flaws in the movie , especially when she has bf and IN LOVE with him but she also has a little crush on fiance ? because in a scene where manu0026#39;s uncle told him to dance with her in a party , she got pissed or jealous and went to dance by herself. so it seems that she has some feelings for fiance too which is ODD?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis situation of u0026quot; arranged marriageu0026quot; happens in many 3rd world or under develop countries like india, Pakistan , Nepal, Bangladesh, srilanka , and many muslim countries. and most arranged marriages has more success that conventional love marriage (like in so called civilised western countries). But anyhow, love is important but what more important is loyalty ,faith , honesty and responsibility.”
