Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Kamlesh Ranjan the implementation are spectacular in it's own way. the ecstasy of the topic is itself amazing that you want to see more and more. i really don't know if it's a slap on Indian culture or not, i do not consider myself as a critic at all. i am just trying to figure out how things works in it's own way and experience it. but sometimes i feel like giving up to this Indian culture, i mean that's just bullshit.PDA(public display of affection)is transnational,you can't show love but you can rape. sex before marriage is sin but after marriage is not, she's your property.have sex with her any time you want,WTF.the only motive of the file is 'love is infinite' and that's is beautiful. the aspect of people form various religion and states are different and they should be, it's the part of being human.at the end i would say that love should be celebrated, and that is what the film wants you to learn...
braddugg Love In India is one of the boldest and outrageous films that explicitly deals with love making and the hypocrisy our country called India has with respect to lovemaking. I am not sure yet, if the language is Bengali or can I have English, but since most parts were in Bengali, so put that. It is a documentary film that has people themselves as characters and they share their opinions and experiences . Q is one of the boldest directors to have took up a subject that most Indians are not comforted to and then goes back ages to surface where did it all began and how is love being celebrated now. Religious abuses to Gods to celebration of women and the creation of 64 arts, this has so much more than mere love making. With this film, I rank Q as a quintessential director who is very much needed to show things as they are and not as they were meant to be or not how they ought to be. A theater owner spills out hypocrisy of Indian audience, a girlfriend explains why others don't like love being made public, a wife and husband confess her perspective on lovemaking, a divorced woman speaks out, an artist recalls his fantasy and a philosopher comes up with how women becomes man for some few days. Now, what more do I have to learn about the root of existence. It's like a much needed lesson to the youth of the nation and more so to the adamant elders who just do not see things as they and are completely hypocritical. This film is symbolic in may ways and it questions a lot many things that even I myself was not aware of. Qaushiq Mukhergee has rightly named himself as Q coz that means a question and he questions the way of life in India, he questions the mindset. Having said that, it does not preach or say there is a better way to do or live than what we are today, it only feels appalled at the system and the culture we have subscribed and how it has derided and where has it led us to. It's commendable in many ways, it demystifies the mystic and the myth and surfaces a whole new world, a whole new India rather most of us are unaware of. It's so very tempting for me to put them all across as most reviewer do and just help you encapsulate the essence. But I would not do that coz I am just putting what I liked about this and not putting across what this really is about. I encourage everyone who has read this blogpost to have a go at this wonderful documentary that speaks so much more in so less time. It's tough to rate such films coz I fall for them and I don't know how shall I deconstruct and analyze and put the rating across. From, a 5/5 I subtract 1 and make it 4/5 just for the production values. Yet, it's shot by handy cam and that's as it is a wonderful job done by Q and my salute for the brave man.
Hardeep Pathak A volatile attempt to a tale of dichotomy and confusion in India relating to Love. Over centuries and generations. Alongwith a lot of mythological excerpts and revelations. Krishna-Radha story gets us pondering and questioning the way we ourselves perceive Love & Sex in India! The movie is a question to Indians who've lost something that they themselves created! It spills on to the contradictions in India related to love and sex. Q takes us to the chaos and conflicts between suppressed moral values and the timeless tradition of spiritual sexuality. The film does succeed in digging the long lost roots of romance and love in India.Q likes to take the boldest way towards being a rebel! A good watch. Will leave you thinking hard!
