WOW pushpa great great work love you
Very brave to have shot ur personal life. But it gives insights into the aspirations of women and relationships . very inspiring. As a guy it inspires me to be a better person
Heart touching and commedable job ❤
wooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
As a pahari female raised in Delhi yet have known experiences of the pahari women from the hills, I can vouch this is so real for these ladies who have passion for life but no sense of autonomy, authority. They've been (both male and female) raised up in such a manner that family comes first even if it kills you lifelong. The women are so simple minded yet always longing for that freedom, the men are equally burdened yet they won't say no to their parents even when the former's wishes aren't justifiable. This patriarchy is so frustrating that I strongly stand with Geeta's thoughts for her baby that "I'll raise him up to be clever, not like me (simple)" (since paharis are considered to be gullible, simple minded people..... but are they really when it comes to female oppression and foeticide). This is such a brave piece of work to get involved with as a third person though all of it immediately connects with you (referring to the camera person). Unsettling in an eerie-calm manner. Outstanding.
Awesome. I've been recommending this movie to so many filmmakers
deep insight work. well done......................
Amazing and heart touching.. keep producing the same...
Amazing movie!! Hats off to the directors! :)

Pushpa rawat... Hats... Off!
Incredible and not heart touching its soul touching must see for all girls
Moving
Nice story based movie
वाकई शानदार ।❣️
Sad but it's the story of most Indian girls allover the world....
Too, too, too personal a story.
Felt insanely voyeuristic guilt.
You see a documentary like this and realise that "getting a closure" or the very idea of CLOSURE is a myth.
कुछ न कुछ बचा रह जाता है
And it becomes a part you, your being and your life.
आपके अस्तित्व का हिस्सा।
