    Movie had the potential

    This movie had a potential but it's did not stand on it. The story has proper start but has lead character meet each other, the story turn out fast phase and leave the main topic in first half. As the second half begin of movie, after that story catch the topic which the concept of that movie and should be carry first. Over all the movie is ok. Rakul Preet Singh and Sumeet Vyas work was good but supporting characters catch the movie. The character which is been carried out by Rajesh Tailang steal catch whole movie and I love that part of it. Over all at conclusions movie is good for one time watch.

    Lady on a mission to solve women issues

    This movie seeks to speak on behalf of women who suffer in silence with the discomfort of the side effects of the contraceptive pill when their husbands do not use a condom for whatever reasons. We have a young chemistry graduate ( Rakul Preet) residing in a small town Karnal in Haryana who likes to apply principles of chemistry in day to day life and takes up a job as the quality head of a condom manufacturing company for lack of a better choice. Since the job is likely to cause embarrassment to her family she hides this fact but not for long leading to friction with her husband ( Sumeet Vyas), with her family and the orthodox community of the town in general. She then starts a crusade to educate and instigate local women to pressurise their husbands to use condom and free them from the pain of the side effects of the pill. This is not as easy as it seems as the women discover. ( In a lighter vein, the movie may not go down too well with pill manufacturers).

    Director Tejas Deoskar just about manages to give an average treatment to the plot keeping it a bit too simplistic. No in depth or incisive analysis of the subject at hand but just skimming the surface keeping in mind the sensibilities and the taboos involved besides considerations of the censors and the box office. The small town sensibilities are also not so convincingly shown. A female teacher waiting in a make shift arrangement in a field to teach sex education to school kids seems too far fetched. The reference to Kalpana Chawla doesn't seem to fit in. The acting of all is barely average and no complaints on that.

    Nice movie with very delicate message !!!

    This is actually a movie with social awareness. I initially thought this movie is about some fun elements related one but when I stated watching i was wrong.

    This movie is like Padman and Toilet where those movies talk about their specific content and chhatriwali talks about condom

    In this generation people are running out of stories like love story , terrorism serial killer, auto biography, mythology etc.. But we have superb subject around us like Chatrwali I truely appreciate team and support for this movie..

    There are many such things where people need to get awareness like miscarriages , preganancy problem , teenagers misusing their private parts themselves without proper knowledge etc.. About all these things people won't talk openly but end up with disasters without taking proper precautions or treatment etc. . i encourage team to explore more about such subject and bring up with enriched story line screenplay like Chatriwali ..

    I honestly liked pills side effect concept in this movie. I expect more realistic examples to be shown like that and let any topic to be explained in detail to student or anyone.

    Still this movie has a great content and storyline.

    People should watch understand and follow this.

    Its a decent attempt at a very important aspect of our lives - Sex Ed and Protection

    Last year, a movie (Janhit mein Jaari) was there with Nushrratt Bharuccha in it on the same lines of this movie. The story premise is quite similar thus concept might feel repetitive.

    But this movie is up a notch just because it targets the core reason for people not wearing protection - that is Sex Education.

    Its very predictable throughout but hey! Its not a suspense thriller anyway. Its a fun movie to watch with a social element.

    You can ignore it if you are aware enough, but one with social stigmas about using protection should watch this just to get a hint at that its not a big deal.

    Also to understand, what women go through just because men are not sensitive enough or just being ignorant about such an important aspect of life.
