Birha : The Journey Back Home

Such a poignant depiction of the pangs of separation and loneliness for parents and children alike when children leave for foreign lands...The accompanying music was so apt and great acting by the father son duo. The end though is cliche makes the whole script even more touching and memorable...Such beautiful acting direction ...Just goes to show that what great direction and acting can do to produce a beautiful film, Manav in Bollywood roles seems ordinary but given a chance these actors have great talent...wish we could have more such touching and meaningful films which leave a lasting impact.

This was my 4th movie in the short series currently on Jiocinema and undoubtedly the best of short movies seen in a long time Brings tears to eyes. You just can't help think from both sides.. Folly of a youthful ambition and cry for redemption and then thinking and imagining the long journey led by the parents after their sons errant doing.. of what thy had felt over the years gone by.. And then the simple human emotion of parental love and forgiveness for an errant child.

Must watch. Excellent performances in past and present. You can just not think of the plot again and again. Its short movie but it will remain with you for a long long time

Must watch.

Watched this short film many times and every time it touches the emotion and makes you overwhelmed. Perfect direction. Captured genuine emotions, genuine Punjab rural home setting. Simply a masterpiece.

The actors, the background music, the voice modulation are so heartfelt that it makes you teary eyed. It is very difficult to control your emotions during this film. One can relate to this movie very easily as if you have gone through this situation of forgiveness with your parents.

Highly commendable performance by everyone who were part of making this short film.. A must watch movie. I have watched it more than 10 times. Highly recommended movie. Kudos to all!

Birha is a great watch that will stay with you for a long time. The film looks great and had an authentic Punjabi setting. The performances are great expect Rajit Kapur's Punjabi accent. Every frame is good and captures the sense of longing and guilt and difference between a father and son. The cinematography and sound design are well-crafted. The background music uplifts the film. The dialogues are very apt. A must watch short available on JioCinema. The director has crafted this short with his whole heart and I'm looking forward for what he makes next. Overall, a great short and highly recommended if you are a fan of emotional and heart touching tales.
