Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 04/26/2019
The film unerringly hits all the right notes of a life sliding down the precipice, teetering on the edge, and drawing back from the brink, at the very last moment. Go to Full Review

The visual style this movie has kept me interested, even when the story didn't. I liked aspects of the story but there were many times where it dragged for me. I thought the characters felt real and the performances are very authentic. It is definitely a slow-paced movie that is also pretty bleak. Despite pacing issues, the movie gets props for its different style and realistic vibe. The movie definitely isn't for everyone, but I think it has a few pros that make it worth checking out.
