I loved every second of this movie.
It is a familiar story about a couple's struggle against certain customs and family ideas to get a love marriage.
However, the exposition mechanism (1hr chats) and going back and forth in the story in the first half make the exposition feel very natural, riveting, and funny. The characters are extremely well fleshed out and the romance in the first half is very cute and sells well.
The second half kicks it up even more in terms of entertainment and storytelling with tons of incidents that are very unpredictable, thus keeping it fresh and never lagging. The comedy works very well too. The best part though is the ambiguity we feel in the lead characters as the lies catch up and their guilt keeps rising.
Not just the screenplay and editing, the direction works extremely well too with gorgeous frames and fun camera angles and techniques throughout.
The acting from the lead characters to the parents to the other supporting characters is spot on too, special mention to young Nani.
I feel this movie's attention to detail in every element of the film is commendable, and I hope everyone supports this movie so we can see more excellent films with smaller budgets.
