CGiii Comment

Why are Indian films so long?!?

This is tediously long...

Ghosh gives the same muted performance as he delivered in Memories of March...to less, more sleep-inducing, effect.

Perhaps, he should have given the director's chair to someone else...someone who could have injected some energy into this lifeless example of chronic self-indulgence.
