Delicious
—What struck us with Godha was the no-nonsense romance which is what we love at Nganda Cinema. The story was pure and the emotions real.
Adithi (Wamiqa Gabbi) was a fighter emotionally, physically, and spiritually. She was an example for women to rise up and fight for what they want without being tied down by tradition.
She raised important questions and challenged the status quo, we were so moved by her willpower.
A notable line was when she said “we’re not even given the permission to dream! All they want us to do is get married, have kids, and take care of our husbands, and then live under someone for the rest of our lives” hmmm…
—Godha was also entertaining, we laughed till we couldn’t breathe 😀
All the actors gave 200% and Das (Tovino Thomas) was…don’t even know how to describe him…He captured the essence of his goofy and irresponsible character, flawless
—The editor did a great job of inserting some funny animations to keep the storyline appealing
—THANK YOU Rakesh Mantodi for writing such a unique screenplay
—Basil Joseph, you blew us away with a fine storytelling that was precise, straight to the point, and intentionally sending out crucial lessons. We were mesmerized
