Bilikisuuuuuuu 😍 Oh wow, this girl is such a beauty! We guarantee you’ll fall in love with her.
We thank Alfa Faruk Umar for crafting a story on street sellers whom we oftentimes ignore. If Only was a piercing tale that called us to action
~So Worth Watching~

Delicious
—Let’s give it up for Ashafa Salamat (playing Bilikisu); this girl understood and portrayed her character exceptionally well. She was frail, polite, and so lovely. You almost wanted to enter the TV screen and adopt her!
—We tend to go about our busy lives and neglect street children thinking they’re not our problem. If Only called us, in a soft and meaningful way, to change the destiny of one kid at a time
—Screenplay was simply fantastic with an original ending. We were indeed taken on a Bilikisu ride. To be candid, If Only is best appreciated watching it; we encourage you to give it 9 minutes of your time 😉

Bland
—Editing was slightly weak, especially when it came to the score and scene transitions
