mobasshirma Review of Darlings

Darlings (I) (2022)

Absolutely loved a Hindi film after a long time.

[8/10 · 5 August 2022]

Darlings is a social dramedy disguised as a dark comedy beautifully captures both the genres with utmost sincerity. The film doesn't try to mock the domestic violence, but deals with the sensitive topic with nice detailing. The performances by the cast were brilliant, Alia Bhatt as a innocent naive housewife married to an sadistic volatile husband played so well by Vijay Varma. Some scenes with the couple felt like ticking time bomb ready to explode. Shefali Shah played a mother who can goes to any extent to save her daughter. She is the most fun character. Roshan Mathew, Vijay Maurya and Rajesh Sharma lent a great support to the cast. The Writers did an compelling job and wrote the screenplay with so much attention to detail without getting information dense. The debut director passed the test with flying colors. Enjoyed the world of darlings. Watch the film on Netflix.
