Team Neestream
Thank you Neestram for this movie.
You guys should at least make the movie available for 1 month after the payment instead of just 5 days.
This app needs improvement. You can only watch on an iPad or phone . What’s the point .
I have always been ashamed of myself whenever I was irritated with my mother for not cooking with involvement . She is no more. There is such terrible regret for my harsh words . After seeing this movie, I felt guilty for so many days. It’s so wrong to take our mothers, sisters and in case of men, the wives for granted. It’s unbelievable rut, what they go through, every day for us.
One scene that passed quickly but was striking was when the “impure” wife touched her husband, the high priest listed out the traditional remedies the husband would have to do - eating cow dung or drinking the juice from dung, but in the same breath, he was quick to make adjustments to these “old” rules by saying he could wash himself in the pond, thereby making it convenient for the husband. But there were no leniencies given to the wife in matters of religion no matter how absurd the rules were.
True
****SPOILER ALERT****
I don't know if you noticed these points, but these are some of the brilliant yet subtle points in this movie according to me...Most of these points were brought to my notice after I read some other reviews online and I went back to watch them again...This movie is a brilliant brilliant creation!!
1)The characters(at least the main ones) don't have any names..and that's the point...they are every other husband or wife who have perpetuated or accepted patriarchy..
2) The wife is considered impure when she was on her periods, yet we see that when she was cleaning the table and her hands are greasy and dirty, he still wanted to hug her.
3) When she gets her periods she is not allowed to enter the kitchen and we see the maid come in and do all the cooking and cleaning chores that the wife was doing all these days... showing how the wife is treated like a servant and not as a wife or a daughter.
4)We see the mother in law in her saree when she is at her home but when goes to visit her pregnant daughter to take care of her, whose lifestyle seems "modern", we see that she doesn't wear a saree anymore...she wears churidar..
5) There is a scene that shows the photos on the wall of all the previous couples who have lived in that house and in the background we hear the washing of utensils, cleaning of the floor, etc showing us how time hasn't changed the women's experiences in that house
6)When the newlyweds come to the house for the first time after their wedding, we see them get out of a red car, and the camera pauses at the car...and we see it is a new car, which doesn't have a nameplate yet...Most likely this car was given as dowry to the groom's family...A few scenes later we see the father in law closing a suitcase filled with gold ornaments and puts it in a safe... That too is dowry...It was worn by the girl on her wedding and after that it was the groom's family's "property"..
7) When she talks about getting a job, the father in law shoots this idea down by saying that women are auspicious to the home and they are doing the greatest work than anyone else...the very next scene we see her washing someone else's underwear.. Also, the father-in-law supports his statement of women not working by saying that the mother-in-law had a master's degree and when she wanted to go for a job, he didn't allow him and listened to his Dad..He tells her that if she asks her mother-in-law about this, she too will have the same opinion that she should stay in the house. BUT, when she talks to her mother-in-law about this, she encourages her to pursue the job but tells her that no one should know that it was her idea... that's the story of most women in such traditional houses ...they want so many things but are so scared to voice their opinions because it is a male dominated household .....
Great points!
Also how easily replaceable all the women in their lives were. If it’s not MIL, their DIL will cook, clean, etc. when DIL can’t do it, a maid comes in, or his aunt comes in to serve them. Their lives change by no means, they don’t pitch in with house work, they simply change out women in their lives to serve them.
🥰🙏
@@sapnasura but she spoiled the movie😭
@@shazam1334 Really sorry about that!!😂😂
@@sapnasura Exactly!
9.41 Korbin: There is nothing cleaner than a woman on menstruation, the body cleans its goddamn self.. I wish we had the same mindset here throughout genders and all generations
Actually The Problem Here Is,Nobody Is Learning About It..Only A Few Knows The Real Process Behind Menstruation...Some People Just Thinks Its Disgusting,But These People Doesn't Have A Problem When Having Sex...
Sex Education And Things Like This Has To Be Taught In Schools
@@ams619 but in India reproductive chapter is like- Teacher: Ohh.. That 9th chapter, that you can read it.. You'll get it. Now we'll move on to next chapter. Then how it will work 😒
In fact there is nothing cleaner than a man when he is Shitting himself and the body cleans its goddamn self. I don't understand why my wife insisted I close the door when I take a dump. I keep telling her that its my body cleaning itself, but she just do not seem to care.
@@ams619 lol. Sex education IS taught in school. Which school did you pass out from ?
Literally, I'm so envious of their children to have parents like them, both Rick and Korbin.
When he asks her to apologize in the bedroom after that restaurant scene, I was literally shouting in my head - DON'T
Me too...I would never apologize for what is righteous
Me too!
I was like slap that black tea guy
I think men becoming independent in household chores and kitchen should be termed as male empowerment, and should be encouraged.
calling it male empowerment for being able to do the bare minimum?
@@nicolechanthiam2592 I think its empowerment because it helps men to live independently.
This great movie teaches that Both WOMEN and MEN should do OUTSIDE and HOUSEHOLD works equally. No Gender should bear extra burden. Both need respect and appreciation for their work.
Haha that was cool... funny too! I always thought once I grew, why are men fed like children? In a way, women in my family, always were the kinda boss of the house cuz nothing moves in our out or any direction without their consent and decision. Men kind of just tagged along but, given equal respect both ways. And I thought wow that’s amazing considering matriarchy that once existed in the state. But I later realized men just felt kitchen wasn’t their department not because they weren’t welcome 🤩
@@twilight9237 men also do all work but in this movie women stuck up with same work daily and frustrated with not getting freedom to do is dream work
The fact that any person would have loved to slap the husband is a sign of how amazing of an actor suraj is no wonder he Won a national award
I was actually freaking out in some scenes thinking he would slap his wife.
[Spoiler Alert]
The fact that she locked up both the men in the kitchen in the end is very poetic!
Ah yes ! Just thought of it now.. Good observation 👏👏🙂
Wow I didn't really think of it as being locked in where she had been locked in for months until you said it. Great observation 🙌🏻
Serving them gutter water was ultimate... I clapped literally.
This great movie teaches that Both WOMEN and MEN should do OUTSIDE and HOUSEHOLD works equally. No Gender should bear extra burden. Both need respect and appreciation for their work.
I can’t believe I missed that, until you pointed it out!! I was so happy that she threw that drainage water at them, that I forgot she had planned to lock them in the kitchen!!
This movie eventually will be made in Bollywood with Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor in the lead roles in their luxury households and their over the top make ups and people will be like: Bhool Bhulaiya and Drishyam are great bollywood movies 🙄
And Twinkle Khanna will talk about "feminism" and how "passionate" she is, about it. Apparently, intellectual honesty isn't required of self-proclaimed "intellectual celebrities".
And some old songs remixed + a Punjabi song for axay..
Very true
Yeah
They will not make it.. Because it contains a very controversial topic.. And after recent ott platform rule it's a very less chance to be made in bollywood.. Amazon, Netflix also didn't give permission to this movie due to Sabrimala issue.. But due to tremendous response from audience they agreed.... So i dont think bollywood has this much courage to do a movie like this
The whole of india needs to see this film and internalize it. As rick said there is somethng fundmentally wrong with you if you are not willing to understand and correct the lies in your belief. The ability to correct youself is not a hit to ur identity its ur ability to use your common sense in a sensible way
So true👍👍
This great movie teaches that Both WOMEN and MEN should do OUTSIDE and HOUSEHOLD works equally. No Gender should bear extra burden. Both need respect and appreciation for their work.
One of the best things about this film is that non of the characters have a name
😲😲 I didn't realize that
Second best thing was they were all HINDUS. How convenient.
@@zaxcollix123 If that was ur biggest takeaway from the film u should just reconsider ur life....
@@joelmathew1528 LOL. "take away" ? I don't need a movie to teach me about life or how kerala society works.
A land where women feels unsafe to walk the road after 7 PM and where people line up to drink alcohol and vote for communists tells a story that I have heard for multiple decades. Now go eat Beef and tell us how "secular" you are.
@@zaxcollix123 well after reading your second comment i also suggest you to really reconsider your life. 🤦♂️.
I can relate so much with the movie, especially the menstrual cycle part ..where sitting aside, sleeping on the floor ,not touching any things,nobody touches me as I am impure, I cannot touch my things..my brother gets it for me...my mom literally washes my mobile covers because I touched them when I was in my periods,she also makes me clean my phone with a wet cloth...all these things make me feel humiliated, disgusted, frustrated...I hate being a woman at times...every time I am in my periods..me and my mom have a huge fight..over these useless,worthless topics .
Definitely agree to every point!!! Tired of finding ways of how to make them understand that this is discrimination!!!
I'm happy that it will end with your generation and you will not take it ahead if you have a daughter❤️
@@anakims_art definitelyy
Im sorry you had to go through that. Hopefully the system changes
It's good that you are speaking up.👍🏾
And he is a teacher too in this film 🙄
Sociology teacher.
That too teaching about the family.. That's the irony.
Yeah a psycho teacher.
That too at a girls' school.
A leaking tap at the end when the 2nd wife is washing the tea cup could've been so powerful! Indicating that nothing changed for the guy...
There are lot of subtilties that you did not discuss in this review, just brilliant attention to detail
1. The characters in the movie did not have a name (implying this can be anyone)
2. The focus on the pictures on the wall (depicting this is just the way of things generations through)
3. the last walk and background scenes of the different homes
every single detail was so well crafted, definitely has been the best movie choice for the year 2021 so far and as always a fantastic review!
"THANKS SCIENCE"
Was waiting to see your review and you guys nailed it like hell.
A few subtle social commentary from movie for your better understanding
1) in indian arranged marriages dowry is a prevailing custom. After the marriage the one car remains is a parting gift from brides FATHER to the GROOM.
2) far right is occupying indian political power now, during the marriage you could see the father character gossips with his friends and one of them says its only beginning. What they imply is what far right indian politics had just start to do what german aryans did to jews to indian minorities.
3)its coustom for the newly weds to visit all relatives from both in laws after arranged marriage. So in the start while during such a visit there are two children in a family a boy and a girl, boy is right there in the dining table taking food along with the couple. Nimisha ask the girl to sit along with them but her mother objects with some excuse. Indoctrination from childhood.
4) in the same scene mentioned in (3) there is reference of beef not being brought to home because of opposition from grand mother. Consumption of beef is a sensitive issue in india since it is considered as a religious totem of hindus. Though in kerala beef is a favourite cuisine unlike other parts of the country, there are conservative sections who don't bring it home. The irony is same grand mother is reading deshabhimani, the left mouthpiece news paper of kerala.
5) sabarimala is the most famous temple in kerala and only women below 8 and above 50 could enter the sanctum. Obviously mensuration devoid women. Male devoties need 40 or such days pre visit rituals of imagined purity, abstain from sex, eating habits etc. India's supreme court after about 12 years trial gave verdict that ritual in sabarimala is discriminatory aganist women with regard to constitutional rights. In light of this verdict many feminist views where circulated in social media. Hooligans who haven't get train from dark ages did many criminal activities targeting those support the verdict. The climax uses this real social even. You could also see some women protesting aganist court verdict in backdrop when nimisha walks out of the hell to large horizon.
The great indian kitchen title is so great. It hits everytime you hear it or see that title after you've watched the film.
Do watch android kunjapan.. which is acted by soubin shahir and suraj venjaranmudu
Boring one
Venjaramoodu*
I watched the movie with my wife. I had to mentally check if I did any of those things myself. We were both frustrated with the husband character. I cheered at the end when she threw the water in their faces and locked them up. I rarely get so invested in anything I watch. Many of these things were taught to be by my sister and I have never thought that household chores are only women's domain. I'm thankful for having strong female role models in my life for teaching me how to treat women. Not saying I'm a saint, but I'm self aware enough to own up when I screw up.
This movie is a must watch, especially for all Indian men.
Yay!!!...You got to this so quickly!...and what a fantastic review! The fact that you got this film despite needing a lot of contextual base is the biggest proof of its brilliance. The movie made you guys so angry, imagine what it might have done to people who have been seeing and/or experiencing this ever since they were born. My palms still haven't healed from all the clawing during the movie.
**I don't know if you guys noticed, but none of the characters were named in this movie. That makes every scene of this movie hit you right where it should.... and Jeo Baby did not even let a name create a distance between the audience and the movie...these characters could be you , me, anyone. **
And yeah.....FUCK PATRIARCHY!!!...💪
So glad to see a woman say this. So many educated, middle-class women are complacent, placid and passive. A lot of Indian women want equality, but most don't have the courage to seek it, and fight for it. They want the easy way.
Thank you for another great review. Hope you get around to seeing 'SIR' soon. I watched the movie a little over a week ago and it's still on my mind. It's such a simple, pure and beautiful piece of work. ❤️
It really is! I watched it twice in two days it was that captivating.
Thoroughout the entire film, we didn't get to know the names of the characters in the film. I barely noticed it until i heard it said. That also has a metaphorical aspect to it.
@soham banerjee Like the BGM that was there , when the father in law asked Nimihsa not to take up the Job
Next malayalam movie
"Manichitrathazhu "( 1993)
Directed by Fazil ( father of Fahad fazil )
A psychological horror movie ( with some comedic stuff ) but an evergreen movie for keralites.
They already saw the hindi version. I dont think they would be interested in the malayalam one.
Other foreign reaction channels go with views, where as you guys go with contents...That's why I love this channel so much than others...Keep supporting guys..Love you ❤️😍
I watched it yesterday ❤️ I fell in love with it immediately ❤️❤️❤️ that's all I would say. Just watch it people, just watch it....
Thank you Rick and korbin for the review loved it too🙌🤗🌻
I'll be right back... Im going to watch the movie.
😌💝👍
Very Good Decision 😊
Is it available on streaming? I can't find it
@@aishwaryaverma4033 neestream
@@jmodi8087 Thank you! Just watched it on neestream. Was more than happy to pay for this piece of art. Totally deserves every penny and more. I hope more people pay for a premium subscription to see it. The site isn't perfect but it's worth the minor issues to see this film
I hope everyone now understands what half the population was also saying about films like Kabir Singh.
Underrated comment.
You guys are just unbelievably good! That's the best review of this film that I've seen...and it's very heartening that you really understood and appreciated bevery little nuance despite coming from a very different culture!! You guys are way more than just a reaction channel!
Nothing is more beautiful than guys talking about the message of this movie, that too in such detail.
The brilliance of writer-director Jeo Baby, of not naming the characters (because it could be you or me or anyone) and making us feel the exhaustion and anxiety she felt in that house.. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@vidya thottappillil it could be you me or anyone but from a particular religion and particular space.
@@moviemacho5758 if you are meaning to say the "only hindus are mocked" in movies, argument.. Kindly take it elsewhere.. I am a Hindu and in no way took this movie to be offensive.. I enjoy 'Padam onnu oru vilapam', 'Trance' and 'The Great Indian Kitchen' the same way... Satirical art created well.. Periodttt. 🙂🙂🙂
Not giving name wasnt because they wanted it to be universal , if that was the case may be they shouldn't have discussed religion and used subtle references at all. ( they can discuss the issue without cashing on religious insecurities )
since they have a filter it is not something everyone can relate to thats all I meant . well everyone can sympathise and empathise. but not something you see every where thats all I meant.
and yea if your a hindu and hasn't taken it to be offensive good for you!!
@@moviemacho5758 take care
@@vidyathottappillil8367 sure you too!!
Thankyou so much 😍😍, yep the ending was so satisfying !, loved the movie, loved the review.
@Prince Pradeep. Bro, can you make a teaser compilation of new Malayalam films Kala,vellam,priest and kathanar. So we can see their reaction in one video.
Very nice review and the rest of India needs to watch this movie... It's high time we change our traditions and patriarchal customs🤧
Am I the only one who got goosebumps when watched this review...? Thanks for the review. Sound design and the DOP - Top notch. Excellent movie!!!!
Me too!
The dance at the end... Just 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This film draws so much emotion out of the viewers that it becomes difficult to just sit and watch. The 'Great Indian Mindset' needs to change. A tour de force movie.
Men don't clean, cook, and wash in most Indian homes. Only daughters or daughters-in-law are questioned and judged if they skip household works. It is a known fact that many educated women leave their careers and passion as they couldn't balance both housework and office work.
Paused your video at 3.00 Min. Now watching The Great Indian Kitchen..
One of my friend said, there is no need for her to be seperated for these small things and all problems will be solved when we sit and discuss. When I hear this from that man, I argued a lot I never done that. This is not a small problm and her husband is not a small kid to discuss these things. She is not getting any respect in that house so no point in fixing them. I know many men who eat like that way. Really a good movie 👍
Maheshinte predikaram
Sudani from Nigeria
Jacobinte sworgaragyam
3rd one really 😱
Watch “Ishq” a small malayalam movie. Which depicts a similar indifferent scenario in some Indian society.
This is actually relatable to all the Indians and all around the world.
I loved this movie soo much! It covers sooo many aspects of Indian society particularly. Notice how the women do alll the work every single time. Scenarios kept changing, work kept changing (washing clothes, cooking, cleaning the house, giving the father in law something so minuscule as a tooth brush with the toothpaste already on it) yet not once did the man do any work. Not a single work.
There was deep rooted sexism and patriarchy, even when it came to God.
To make it worse, it was a prestigious family with the son being a sociology teacher 🙄
All in all, this movie deserves to be watched by every single one of us.
Thanks for the wonderful review BTW ❤️
I am eager to know which was the other malayalam movie u were planning to watch😅😅 Looking forward for it😜
I assume it’s maheshinte prathikaram or some other Fahad movie.
@@nomad4273 yes... I too think so. But I doubt if they will enjoy Maheshinte Prathikaram as much as we did.. Many a lot of jokes have regional context.
Omg I just watched this movie!!! I absolutely love Malayalam movies Thankx to you guys!!!! I’m Sri Lankan and I’ve never heard or seen such aversion to a woman’s period!!! 😱😱😱😱
10:45 actually menstruation is celebrated in parts of Assam as well. I've heard.. They mark the start of a girl's first ever periods with a big festival type celebration. Which i think is really beautiful.
So fast you saw them in " thondimuthalum driksakshiyumm""
Thanku guys for watching this movie, so glad to know u loved it. If u noticed the director never mentioned any names (which i think is quite smart) for most of the characters because they are relatable with the names of someone we knows.
Second best thing was they were all Hindus. How convenient. Any Idea why we don't see such socially relevant Mallu movies with xtian and muslims families and background ?
@@zaxcollix123 have you seen these malayalam movies
👇
Trance
Patam onn oru vilapam
Islam
Gadhama(this film even faced a ban in gulf countries)
Khoshayatra
Kilichundan mambazham
Ketiyolaan ente malakha

Have u heard about upcoming malayalam film 'Vaank'. Lipstick under my burkha, gullyboy are some examples from other languages.
And still u are saying only hindu backgrounds are questioned in movies 🤦🤷
@@devidas6264 👏👏👏👏👏
This is the best review ever had..I just watched the film and I totally understand these scenarios... and we can see you guys are totally infuriated and made genuine response to the film..
I have never seen Korbin this animated and invested about any movie review so far 😅
This great movie teaches that Both WOMEN and MEN should do OUTSIDE and HOUSEHOLD works equally. No Gender should bear extra burden. Both need respect and appreciation for their work.
Malayalam movies are simply legendary period (.)🙌🏼✅💯
Thank you , darlings. Rick and Korbin. 😘OSR is awesome.
that's why i'm never volunteering to become a slave😋and never having kids
Do watch 'Sir' available on Netflix...Its an amazing movie with great performances!
The first 40 mins is about what a great amount of time & things/ingredients go into making a dish for one serve is the point. Indian kitchen and cooking is not something toast a bread for breakfast is the whole point of first 40mins which you obviously missing it not the mundanity
Most of the men in India says ,a working women as wife will be outspoken ,actually a woman who asks for her rights is known as outspoken ....Only in India
Atheism cannot be considered a religion or belief system.It is true that Sikhism is very progressive in many matters because of the historical context it formed.Budhhism and Jainism are too progressive.Hinduism is not even a religion.These believes are social believes and traditions it is not followed as following a religious scripture.a believe in Kerala will not be in other state .And Jainism, Buddhism, and Hinduism are more like philosophy than believe system.These religions have no single agreed believe system.It is true that menstruation may be considered impure in most indian states and it will probably be followed by many .in Kerala it is prevent in upper caste women and that too is becoming rare now.it is hopeful that many of these are changing
Yaah..its not from any religion..its cooked up by the old people...they created this system not religion.
@@niveditha8313 Religion is also created by old people.in many religious scriptures there is very clearly saying don't read religious books during menstruation.can u deny that? U can see that in the Bible,Quran and many such books.it depends on the history, social circumstances and time period In which the religion formed.
@@sreerag3354 idk may be ..but I believe in god and not some superstitious stupid beliefs here.
@@niveditha8313 god itself is a superstition and any superstition without the support of religion won't survive
@@xy1877 yah..they are making superstitions in the name of God so everyone would believe it. So you don't beloeve in god?
About a woman's periods... the practices started with the intention of keeping the woman safe and rested, owing to the times these practices began, but as is common with human nature, over time people started following and enforcing these practices in the name of religion, society etc. without stopping to consider the relevance of older practices in current times.
It has nothing to do with giving women the much-needed respite. I don't think it ever had. Yes, there would be break from regular chores. But in these 7 days, they (i.e. the system) make the women feel so wretched and dirty with this isolation and snide remarks. "Dont sit there" , "don't touch that." I personally feel, they emotionally keep women down to keep her mind occupied so that she doesn't enjoy the respite.
@@nchl5340 Thats what it has come down to, as I said, due to human nature of clinging on to practices without assessing their relevance through the times.
But original reasons were related to the living conditions in ancient India, where wild animals used to co-exist around human habitat, and women did far more physical work than they do now. Animals can smell blood from a long distance, and women were asked not to go out to work in the fields or to collect water from the river etc. because of the risk of animal attack, and also to give respite from real physical hard work.
How subsequent generations have come to interpret this as impurity and have given it a religious connotation is unfortunate.
This is similar to how dowry was supposed to be the gifts that a bride's family gave at the time of wedding, but it reached the heights of atrocities against women, to a point where it had to be labelled criminal.
So many other examples can be given on similar themes.
@@aninditabhattacharya1715 Oh... I didnt think about the animal attack. Yea, that sounds logical. But I always felt that women have always been so so so hated. Why else would there be ancient scriptures (of all religions) that condemn women?
@@nchl5340 because men have written all the stuff in there 😁
I actually think it’s a much needed break if and only if the women are working non stop in the kitchen daily 3 meals plus snack plus etc plus all other housework etc.
**Malayalis ivda comon💚**
🔥🔥🔥
In Buddhism (Theravada or Hinayana) menstruation is viewed as "a natural physical excretion that women have to go through on a monthly basis, nothing more or less". However, in certain branches of Japanese Buddhism, menstruating women are banned from attending temples.In Nichiren Buddhism (Japan) menstruation is not considered a spiritual obstacle to religious practice, although a menstruating woman may choose not to bow, for comfort.
I wasn't bored for a second. It didn't take 40 minutes for the story to start for me. I feel so much for my mother who made those laborious kerala dishes. There are 'modern' families in the past generation where the woman is expected to get the highest marks in school, work challenging jobs with deadlines etc, bring home larger salaries in many cases which all goes into a joined account and then come home and work all evening in the kitchen. Then work all weekend with laundry and cleaning. Wake up early every morning to make breakfast and pack everyone's lunches. Every second of the movie was precious. Thank you mummy.
THANK YOU 🤩 FOR WATCHING
the moment korbin said to stop this n go watch , m gonna go watch . 😂
Omg I watched it, this is the sad reality. the way people treat their mother sister or daughters. They can’t get their own water then just die know what is the point of living if u can’t even do that. Netflix and Amazon dint accept the movie in their platform m so ashamed of them rn. This is why I love the malayalam industry their movies are always real. The whole cast has done a really good job. ✊
Hopefully this movie will open the eyes of many. Toothbrush and slippers- both- I have seen my ex mom in law doing it. When I asked her why, she said he will get confused otherwise. Sadly lots of women believe that if they don’t do these things for husbands they won’t survive. It is so pathetic. I can give lots of examples of how their relationship is... but since both of them are alive ... and I walked out... I choose not to. Hope she (my ex mom in law) watch this movie at some point in her life. I really hope so.
Seriously, I have so much respect for both of you....your perception over lady mensus as something not to be seen as something dirty...i applauded both of u.... Every indian men should have the same thought like both of u but too bad majority dont....it is sad....im saying this based on my experience, my brothers are jz like the lead actor,..its their preception that ladies are the servant of the hse....cleaning, cooking, each n every household job should be done by only the ladies at home....thank god im a working women n left my home n im an independent women now...nobody has control over me anymore....i escape n my parents nvr against me, infact they support me.
What a brilliant review and I loved this movie. It’s a universal movie for sure and I wish it would play on Netflix or amazon instead so it would have a farther reach.
please react to new malayalam trailer "vellam"
it got released today
This movie is a subset of "The Great Indian Culture", which is a never ending one.
Guys A fantastic song also have in this movie "Neeyen Bhoovin" it's like A classical dance. Try it . That's Awesome
I don't know if anyone has recommended this film, but i think you will love Axone. Such a wonderful slice of life movie!
Imagine people getting bored and skipping the daily chores in the movie which is like the same disgusting thing daily and now imagine women who actually live that life daily....sad they don't have any fast forward or skip button.
There will be many men who will appreciate this film, but in some ways will treat women the same way. For example, the modern family where the brother comes in and asks for water. Internally, I had the same reaction as her. Because of the both of you and my trust in your reviews, I watched this film and loved it. Behind the scenes ..in the kitchen there is a whole production going on. The thankless job of being a homemaker...you can find this throughout the world in different ways. Thanks for your great reviews. A++ for me too!!
Thank you for this very special reaction.🤝
If you are looking to watch old malayalam movie , then watch 'thaniyavarthanam' it is amazing
You can say how much a society is progressive by the way it treat its women!
i don't know one single marriage around me whether it's family or not just how many elements of this are always a part of it. we women are raised to be slaves here, only few manage to get away completely otherwise it's always a part of our existence in varying degrees. and i'm not even a part of the underpriviledged class and still know my destiny as an educated slave if i ever get married. and not submitting to that is also a battle i have to fight alone especially when i don't plan to have kids and the amount of abuse i have to endure in the coming years is gonna be really hard but i'm not gonna volunteer to be a slave.
Much of these scenes may not be common in modern families, but is it a film to be told?yes it is. Malayalam yaay...🤗
It does not happen in my family, it probably doesnt happen in ur family either but it would be ignorant of us to say it doesnt happen in any families these days. There are still families all around India where things like these are followed
It happens in modern families living in modern houses and apartments too. Bulk of the kitchen duty still on women of the house. Division of household chores - from cooking to cleaning to washing to ironing to taking care of the kids, elderly care...
Even the places with maids, it is the women who have to watch/supervise the maids. It is the women who take the mental load. My father cooks thrice in a week. He doesn't leave the kitchen dirty. He washes/irons his own clothes. But my mother says he was not like this in the first 3-4 years of marriage. Still, I feel the division of labour btw my mother and father is 70:30.
Situation in every house may not be as awful as that in the movie. But these patriarchal elements exist even in the so-called progressive families.
It happens in modern families too. Even in cities :/
So you are saying that in almost all families in India men are helping women in house . I don't think so
There is no villain in this... these are actual ordinary people in real life in Indian society .
Watch 'kala' new malayalam movie teaser.
Thank you for this reaction ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The movie was not sync sound because it was raining sometimes and some sound from nearby. But it sounds like sync.
My mother one day asked me to take the plate after my brother had a meal ...I said hell no...she saying if ulove someone you are supposed to do that...don't know what to say back🤣🤣..I think women should start to teach men how to behave in kitchen...it all starts from women...we should not consider ourselves as below or above men...all genders are equally valuable!!
I just paid 3 dollars for this movie and worth it. Only problem is it is too real.
മലയാളീസ് ഇവിടെ come on 👉😄
Movie starts with "Thanks Science"
transition of this film was absolutely great
An interesting and brilliant storytelling movie: The woman doesn’t have a name.. she is never called by her name… a powerful move
Would be cool to react to "trance" . It's one of a kind

I've seen the movie and I had the exact same views as you both had which leads me to the fact that u both always nail it when it comes to the originality with micro details of any film that u review. I appreciate what you do.
Well done.!
Oh btw, I'm an old subscriber ! ❤️
actually 95% of arranged married women in india go through this
I love this film, fantastic. the way she gives wastewater instead of tea, and at last wastewater full of the bucket on pouring to her husband and husband's father, not only that at the end she shut them up in the room. She showed her irritation at that moment.
Each and every Indian must watch this movie. Very nice movie.
Also please review 'Period. End of sentence" available in Netflix. I lived my experience as a girl once again through this short documentary. Oh the shame that they inflicted on me, the constant reminder that am impure somehow. As a silent protest, during my menstruation days, I still went to the temple and did all the things that they told me not to do because am impure during that time of the month. I waited for the gods wrath and destroy me. But it didn't come. Because it wasn't true. The same lie has been told over and over again to subjugate women and because of the lack of education in science
This movie expressed the exact emotions of housewives
Yes ur very right when u said its more meant for Indians.. The core of the movie is based on patriarchy.. Which is prevalent in the Indian society..
You guys have to review SIR now just watched it and it's amazing.
I see a lot of comments from men as well as women about the whole periods untouchability topic. Whether this was an old custom to force women to take a break from physical chores or this was a way of degrading them making then feel inferior.
My two cents:
The important thing here is about freedom of choice for women.
If I have my period and I'm in extreme discomfort I should have the freedom to step back for those days. However if I'm perfectly fine and in no major discomfort I should have the freedom to continue entering the kitchen, sleeping on my bed, exercising or whatever I want to do.
The problem arises when this is turned into something that's forced on a lady. A natural bodily process that's turned into something dirty... That is where the problem lies.
Also I have to say I've seen women guilty of forcing these regressive ideas on other women as well, so let's not start bashing men alone.
Thank You For the Review OSR ❤️
Also React to Kala Teaser Just dropped yesterday
