Yours Truly (2018) Reviews
Till when should I search for YOU?
The movie is about a 57 year old lady Mithi who works in a government department. She is not married and desires a man in her life. When alone at home, she dreams of man's touch on her face and body. She commutes from her home from the outskirts of Kolkata by a crowded local metro train. She is LOVE with the announcer (Vinay Pathak's voice over) at the Howrah Train Station. It has been 8 long years since she writes personal letters to the Announcer and posts them - but has not seen the man. She knows that the announcer receives her letter because during announcements, he complements her personally. There are two sub-plots - One of Mithi's sister visiting her for a few days and second of her neighbor who looks a religious man during day - but every night has noisy SEX with his wife disturbing Mithi's sleep. Mithi's comment to her sister about that neighbor is - he is a God's man during day - but BEAST in the night. To overcome her loneliness Mithi gets a small puppy dog to give her company. It is during one of those days - The announcer says that he is retiring and the announcement will be taken over by a female computer generated voice. This makes Mithi very sad. I will not tell how the movie ends. Kolkata is beautifully shot. The flavor of the city is dynamically captured with some great still shots. Soni Razdan has played the role beautifully. She is pitch perfect as Mithi - living in her dilated ancestral home Pankaj Tripathi as a poker face neighbor is also good. Vinay Pathak's voice over for seemingly Mahesh Bhatt's small cameo touches heart. The movie is adapted from one of the short story written by Annie Zaidi. (she is amazing writer - read her books if you can). The direction of the movie is good. The pace is slow, but it builds up the empathy for the protagonist's role. There are a couple of humming background songs, which are reflective of the mood and tone and philosophical LOVE longing of Mithi. The emotions of Mithi too are heart warming and connects the SOULS in LOVE. All those small small feelings are astutely captured by Director Sanjoy Nag. I would go with 7 out of 10 for this short 78 minute film.
Everyone wants someone who LOVES
The movie is about a 57 year old lady Mithi (Soni Razdan) who works in a government department. She is not married and desires a man in her life. She dreamz of man's touch on her face and body. She commutes from her home from the outskirts of Kolkata by a crowded local metro train. And above all she is LOVE with the announcer (Vinay Pathak's voice over) at the Howrah Train Station. It has been 8 long years since she writes personal letters to the Announcer and posts them - but has not seen the man. She knows that the announcer receives her letter because during announcements, he complements her personally.. There are two sub-plots - One of Mithi's sister visiting her for a few days and second of her neighbor who every day has noisy SEX with his wife disturbing Mithi's sleep. Mithi's comment to her sister about her neighbor is - he is a pious God's man during day - but he seems to be BEAST in the night. To over come her loneliness Mithi gets a small puppy dog to give her company. One day when the announcer says that he is retiring and the announcement will be taken over by a female computer generated voice - Mithi is heart-broken and sad The movie ends when Mithi sees a man (Mahesh Bhatt) in the opposite platform sitting and opening the envelop she wrote her letter for the announcer. Mithi knows that this must be the announcer and before she could do anything - a train arrives on the platform and blocks her view of that man. By the time the train leaves - the platform is empty. Mithi - cries and smiles at her fate. But at least she was able to see the face of the person she LOVES. The movie ends there. Kolkata is beautifully shot. The flavor of the city is dynamically captured with some great still shots. Soni Razdan has played the role beautifully. She is pitch perfect as Mithi - living in her dilated ancestral home Pankaj Tripathi as a pokey neighbor is also good. Vinay Pathak's voice over for seemingly Mahesh Bhatt's small cameo touches heart. The movie is adapted from one of the short story written by Annie Zaidi. Small small feelings of a lonely person are astutely captured by Director Sanjoy Nag. The pace of movie is slow, but it builds up the empathy for the protagonist's role. There are a couple of humming background songs, which are reflective of the mood and tone and philosophical LOVE longing of Mithi.. The emotions of Mithi too are heart warming and connects with the audience's SOULS in LOVE. Every one wants LOVE in life - and that too a wo/man to LOVE - someone from opposite sex.. That is so natural - and the need for a life- partner is felt more when one grows old. One can replace their life with a dog or cat, but there is no replacement for the smell, touch, feeling of someone lying in the bed besides loving us.
