Seldom will you find, a performance so sublime, as you're taken on the journey, of Gangubai Kathiawadi, through a life she did not plan, having been sold by her man, into the streets of female labour, of the kind, most would not savour.
You can applaud as many western best female actors to your hearts content, but I've not seen any of them match the overwhelming and outstanding performance that Alia Bhatt gives us here, as she takes us on a journey through the brothels of Mumbai, of the pain and the punishment inflicted once you've been imprisoned in a world with no escape, and the incredible way that hope and belief can change the lives of everyone around you.
Absolutely outstanding!
