Birha : The Journey Back Home

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.

Deeply authentic characters and a truely innovative twist makes an otherwise traditional peemise come alive; all packed into an unbelievable 25 minute short story.

Very accurate setting where the house resembles exactly the kind of house that one would find in rural North India. The setting gives power to the plot.

Dialogues were incredibly honest and subtly talks about a lot of issues without being in your face. In today's political climate, such films should be viewed by all young Indians and parents.

No words can give justice to the praise I wish to give to the actors!

We absolutely cannot wait to see more from the writer, Hemant Singh!

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

I have seen this movie three times back to back,i can't imagine we have such good directors who can narrative a movie like this in a such a beautiful way. Last words of the father mourns has taken my heart out.

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.
