    An eye-opener for some, rubbish for nay-sayers

    A story too real and sort of leaves a bad taste in your mouth, but an eye-opener. Anyone who denies that it has an "anti-religious agenda" or "destroying tradition" definitely portray who they relate to in the movie, and are sadly confusing religion and mysogyny.

    While some may say its targeting a certain ethnic group, I do not hesitate to say that it carries a message that goes beyond borders and touches everyone.

    The movie captures the contrast between the beautiful Kerala and the ugly face of mysogyny and hypocrasy of the people. We used this movie as a starting point to open discussion around gender roles and stereotypes.

    Probably every Indian family needs to see this!

    Every Indian family must probably watch this. A little over exaggerated but problem is still real in many of the families around. But showing a leaking sink as a serious problem n an educated lady not able to get a plumber on her own were quite illogical. Climax could have been better. However, a sensitive realistic topic worth a watch definitely. Avilable on Zee5 in all South Indian languages.

    My ratings 6/10!

    Worst movie ever

    It may be good first half showing the poorness of a newly married wife but the second half is very disappointing. Any hindu women will definitely know how to be in time of periods and what to do. Is the m and c women goes against their cultures? Very worst film ever!! Unnecessarily dragged sabarimala issue and finally she left her husband and went on, what to do 😒 Our Indian culture is not like western, if you get a problem to breakup and move on. Every family has its own problems they need to solve by discussing openly with each other. Yes may be the male domination is not right as in movie, she has to question them not to insult them and insult culture.

    Reality that seems Unreal and Boring

    The Great Indian Kitchen is a representation of most of the middle class family of India. The direction of the movie is fantastic that if we watch the full movie with our most focused mind we will be forced to withdraw our attention from the movie and here is the greatness of the movie that we can feel the regular boring and as well as hard life of a woman in a so called patriarchal society. Another movie titled "Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hai" is also represent this type of critical environment but with a mixture of spices of comedy and unreality but this movie does not lack that thing. It has every element that can meet us the face to face with the absolute reality of women's condition in most of the world.

    Remains faithful to the original....!!!

    Director R.kannan intentions are pure,just want to give a clear msg to the male chuvanistic propaganda that remains tagged as family head for ages in the past or be it future,keeps subtle and serves as a faithful to the original.... Aishwarya Rajesh holds the key of the movie,her performance will definitely fetch her some household name among female audiences and is a milestone in her career... Rahul Ravindran is not upto the mark remains as a mute spectator in viewers point of view especially emotion or anger situation seems to be pale and calm expression Overall a worthy package to watch out that serves a must see verdict or remake for every indian language...
