The events that follow, allow the film to make a pertinent comment about the many cultural forces and the manner in which they get tied with class in the Indian society. Additionally, there is the suggestion of how the tug and pull of these elements influence and mould the identity of the marginalized, and the extent to which they might be willing to go to secure their social location, especially in the face of dire circumstances. Further, the film exhibits notable visuals and a sincere devotion to storytelling, leaving one with the promise of more similar projects by the team.
