CGiii Comment

Slow. So incredibly slow.

If you have the patience...will you be rewarded? No.

It tries and fails to say something. After watching, the title is the most interesting thing about this film!

20-odd minutes wasted.

The(ir) Blurb...

A new tenant in his home, the enigmatic Pankaj intrigues Rahul stirring within him a yearning he doesn’t quite understand yet. But there’s trouble brewing when Pankaj’s caste becomes known to the family. Pankaj, at odds with his feelings for a guy that are twice tabooed, struggles to keep a roof over his head. Conflicted by his growing love for a man his family considers beneath them, Rahul must decide what truly matters – age old prejudices or the joy of first love.
