Girls Will Be Girls

The movie has your attention from the first scene, they get everything right the casting, the location, the costumes, everything!!, But this movie takes its time to build up to what it's trying to tell you. How a young girl Mira is exploring her sexuality and love in this patriarchal world. Yet, it is one of the best school romances made in India.

Plot of th movie revolves around Mira, the head prefect of her school, she dealing to meet with her, her parents and her teacher's expectations of her school results, maintaining a decipline in her school irrespective of them being her friends but at the same time she is exploring herself. This coming of age movie is similar to most coming of age movies but has got almost everything right!!

I am stealing: every one has their key, you just need to find them, and ofcourse the school romance, the tention of the first kiss.

But to tell that, the film raises your expectations and slaughters them using its own hands. There's a nice group of actors, and a lucky handy teddy bear. But this is nothing new. And children nowadays experience such a phase much earlier in their lives. So while watching it, most of us can get a glimpse of some irrational delusions of the director.

I can understand it's compulsory to speak in English inside the institutions but the film itself here is the institution. Language matters a lot, and that's a reason why it can't reach out to many. Sometimes it feels like Bombay with mountains. Local dialect exist krta hai?

Anyways, makers should talk with students directly, make a nice use of their experiences.

Nice attempt, best wishes.

The movie is well crafted and acted. All actors were nice and were able to evoke the right emotions in the viewers.

It took us back to our school days when we first time experience bully, sexual development and how to control it. We didnt knew.

I was into the movie, found almost all the technicalities to be near perfect. How the boy and girl meet and come together. Of course it was the pre smartphone era, how to they exchanged numbers and the intricate plan to call, I am sure it brought a nostalgic memory to so many 90s kinds. It really hit the right cord. Totally loved it.

In simple, its a story about how a girl in her school days discovers about her sexuality. I must appreciate the director and the writer for this movie.

Felt like just a bad rehash of Nagesh kukunoor's excellent movie Rockford which was 25 years back. Had good team of actors but couldn't make use of them other than dragging it for 2 hours .

It's a good attempt to make a non glossy and non masala movie

Absolutely obsessed with Shuchi's work-what an incredible talent! I loved "Girls Will Be Girls" from start to finish. There were some truly scream-out-loud moments (I even got shushed in the theatre at Sundance London). The sharp social commentary on mother-daughter relationships was brilliantly executed (the chai scenes broke my wee heart). The 'realness' of young female sexual awakening (the teddy scene) was amazing as it's so rarely seen on screen! The characters were complex and relatable, making the story both engaging and thought-provoking. I can't wait to watch and analyze it all over again. The cinematography, in particular, was exceptional, capturing the nuances of each scene beautifully. Shuchi has truly crafted a masterpiece with this film.
