Cobalt Blue

The movie stands true to its title. The blue aesthetic used in the movie unravels hidden meaning and the emotions of the main character Tanay. The struggles gay people went through in the 90s has been depicted with a poise. The movie circumventing around the struggles of generation and gender makes it stand out.

The laudable job from the cast and warm background music is icing on the cake.

A must watch if you have patience to watch a smooth and slow flowing movie.

This is for niche audience, letme be clear from start. Its about events that lead to self discovery and change of your view about life and world.

In a traditional marathi family, a brother and sister fall in love with a same man who lives in their house as paying guest. Now there are a lot of good moments in it. Director showed his love for movies books in a very nice way.

Acting wise , both the leads played their roles well. They definitely will go far. Pratik babbar coulvde been better , i felt he was little undercooked.

Its a nice movie, about people who different from common crowd, be it careerwise or orientation wise. Do give it a watch and appreciate its team efforts.

One of the best LGBTQ films I've ever seen. The lead actor Tanay is such a find! You feel every emotion he's going through and kudos to the director too for telling the story with such beauty and sensitivity. The only element that I didn't buy is how carefree his parents were, if you know Indian parents you know how nosy they are! Also the ending could have been slightly better it leaves us wanting for more..may be it was meant to be that way. The movie may leave you with a slight heart ache as you feel for these characters.

As a 60 year old gay man, I have grown to really appreciate gay love stories. It allows me to dream what my youth could have been if I had the courage and society permitted it. It makes it even more interesting if you could explore what it might have been like to experience same sex love in foreign culture. Also reminds me that I regret not yet traveling to India.

Non-Indian reviewer here. Been waiting for almost half a year for this movie. Is it worth the wait? Yes it is THE BEST Netflix movie that releases this week although I wish it's longer. Compared to CMBYN and Badhaai Do this one has a faster pace. Although this also means not much is explored deeply especially in the second half which things progressed too quickly until the ending. But the target audience like myself should be really happy and satisfied with this movie, it has almost everything I want in a gay movie. Just not a masterpiece, sadly. But this is easily the best recent gay movie since Operation Hyacinth.
