The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the film as a feel-good comfort watch with strong performances and a relatable middle-class Bengali emotion, while criticizing the melodramatic ending with the mother-in-law's speech. A printed rating of 6.5 out of 10 converts directly to a 3.5-star rating on the ladder. How estimates work

2.5/5BMR estimate
Jayashree Chakravarti · Third Vantage Point · 10 Apr 2019

Read full review ↗Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The film features some grounded performances and strong moments involving female self-discovery, but its potential is severely undermined by an overly melodramatic script and cliché-ridden television soap style. These mixed qualities with a leaning toward negative execution justify a two-and-a-half star rating. How estimates work
