Margarita with a Straw Audience Reviews

Micitype Pretty Good
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Eka Herlyanti At first, I didn't know the main cast of this movie was actually a normal person. What a great acting! It's been a long time I didn't follow the update of Bollywood movies since the era of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. So yeah, it's no wonder I've never heard of Kalki Koechlin and any other casts, except maybe the one who played as Laila's mother. I think I've seen her somewhere in Bollywood movies. Getting to know her, I started to search about her other works or activities on the Internet and I found some on YouTube. Wow, she looks like a smart actress. The way she speaks about women empowerment or feminist. She's done a lot of movies and I found her other movie on Netflix. I hope I can watch it soon enough.This movie doesn't only cover about the everyday life of a person with a cerebral palsy, but also about her sexual life. This what makes this movie unusual. What's more, Laila is in the position where she's confused about her sexual preference. It's something I've never thought about before. And reading the making process of this movie on Wikipedia makes me appreciate this movie even more.

abhaysanjali Well done Kalki Koechlin ! This is "the best" movie till date by Kalki. I just watched this movie and I still feel tears rolling down from my eyes. This movie says everything that we faces in our life. It also shows how alone we are in our busy life. This movie suggest that always be happy what ever the situation may be always be happy. People around you may love you or may hate you but always try to be happy. Do whatever you want to do with your life. After-all its your life, choose your own lifestyle. People may blame you for not following them but everything starts with you and ends with you.Disability is not a problem, mindset is.
Kotni Srikant Kudos to the team who went deeply into the hearts of the physically and mentally disabled people for knowing their life. Some people choose their life in their own way and some don't have choices Kalki a talented music composer is very confused in her relationship being a mentally challenged girl all she wants who should take proper care of her. Initially she had a normal relation , then comes the homosexual part , then Bisexual and at last being asexual . Kalki a brave character tells the world even a gay or a lesbian or a normal person carry emotions with them. Every one should have done a "Yeh Jawani Yeh Deewani" but "Margaritta with a straw" none other than Kalki would have done it. Matured acting , brilliant direction and superb star cast made the movie worth watching at the theatre.
