      Beautifully done, with depth
      From the description, we feared this might be just another gay/lesbian melodrama: two people discover a love in themselves & each other, which the people around them then try to destroy, with varying degrees of success. This is indeed the case, and yet we were not bored.

      The best review of any film is that it works, and this one does. The romance is convincing & engaging, as are the characters. The visuals are beautiful, the dialog realistic without being trite.

      It's all the subtleties that really pay off: the attention to village life, the hints of other background stories, and the fact that our two principals are not outshone by the talents of their more veteran support.

      It probably also helps that the running time is under two hours, and hews much closer to Western dramatic unity than the masala ethic. No comedy, no sudden music stabs, and no one explaining the plot for us. The concerns are real, and the drama is presented, not pushed. Definitely recommended.
