Mrs

This film is exactly what Indian cinema needs nowadays, grounded, relatable, and a true slice of life that resonates with audiences. A huge thanks to the Bawejas (Harry and Harman) for backing such a powerful project. Sanya Malhotra delivers an outstanding performance, effortlessly controlling and calibrating her expressions through various situations, making you feel every emotion her character experiences. The supporting cast, including Nishant Dahiya (her husband) and Kanwaljit Singh (her father-in-law), play crucial roles in helping carry the story.

The film portrays a real, painful journey that many women, both in India and worldwide, can relate to. It highlights the challenges of dealing with demanding in-laws, the loss of self-identity, a self-absorbed husband, and most of all the typical "Hamare ghar ke rules maan ne padenge" syndrome of many patriarchal Indian families. While some moments might seem exaggerated, it's important to remember that these are experiences many women face or have faced. For those who find certain scenes triggering, it's a reflection of real-life struggles many women go through every day.

For those who are saying the ending is rushed, it is not. They have just skipped the unnecessary mud slinging parts that would have followed after the events of the party. They have instead shown what is the eventuality of that situation.

Well, after their first meeting it appeared that they met several times before tying the knot! Even they fell in love!!

Any normal girl who is getting into such arranged - love marriage would clearly tell her would be husband about her interests, profession, career and also that she would work after marriage.

Why such simple thing was kept out of the movie????

See, that's because then there wouldn't be any Masala!!

But the truth about movie's plot is - They both belonged to educated families. But they expected families a full time homemaker. And , why did she also expect that they will understand her?

Here I thought movie went wrong when it was just started! There was no communication, especially by girl. And I fail to understand, how come she did not continue talking about her interest in being dance teacher when this topic was brought before marriage!!

Sanya, you are awesome dear! But this simple communication thing, ruined movie for me.

Yet another Sanya Malhotra film that quietly drops on OTT and gets added to her other "underrated gems." Mrs is good, but it could have been great-if only it had better supporting characters instead of a walking, talking red flag factory.

The film is essentially an emotional beatdown for the main character, Richa. Whether you relate to her or not, you will feel bad for her because every other character exists solely to make her life miserable. Her family? Useless. Support? Nonexistent.

And here's the problem-good character writing requires some balance. You need flaws and redeeming qualities, but the supporting cast here is just a collection of people belittling women or being subtly (and not-so-subtly) prejudiced. Because of this, the film unintentionally lets some viewers off the hook. A lot of men watching this will think, Wait, I've never treated anyone this badly. This isn't me. And just like that, the film's social message loses its punch.

That being said, Mrs is visually stunning. The symbolism is great. Richa adjusting only the female statues while ignoring the male ones was a nice touch. The cinematography was on point. The background score? Could've been better.

Overall, Mrs is a well-made film, but one that leans too hard into misery without giving the audience much else. A little nuance in the supporting characters could have elevated this from sad to powerful. Instead, it's just really sad.

What looks like a perfect marriage on paper turns into a gilded prison. Our protagonist rushes into matrimony blinded by the allure of wealth, medical prestige, and material possessions. The film painfully illustrates how these superficial attractions crumble when faced with the reality of incompatible personalities and values.

The lead actress convincingly portrays the gradual disillusionment as she realizes no amount of financial security can compensate for emotional connection. While the premise is compelling, the execution feels somewhat predictable. The film serves as a cautionary tale about prioritizing status over substance in relationships, but offers little new insight into this well-worn theme.

A stark reminder that compatibility and personality trump possessions every time, though the message deserved more nuanced delivery.

The entire movie, I kept waiting-now she'll take action, now she'll take action-but that moment never came. The story had potential, but the execution felt weak, with a frustrating lack of a strong comeback for the protagonist. Instead of evoking sympathy for Sanya, the film just bored me.

The pacing was slow, and the narrative felt more like an extended cooking reality show than an impactful drama. While the performances were decent, the screenplay failed to deliver the emotional punch it promised. Overall, Mrs was underwhelming and left me disappointed rather than moved. Skip it if you can, won't recommend .
