    Wait. Is this fucking play about us

    I am Nadine minus Erwin plot. I used to know a Mr.Burner and I am always grateful for that. Also Woody Harrelson in a movie, you bet I am watching it.

    I get the hype🔥. SJ Suryah is the real rizz master😩♥️. SJ Suryah the director and screenwriter ate. Ajith was sooo good, the psycho vs cute rom-com boy characters were so convincing and good, they don't write stuff like this for him anymore. But, Simran, Queen, ate🔥🔥🔥🔥, acting is tea, costume is tea. Deva copied this, copied that, dude ate and delivered bangers.

    Why am I scared and anxious for Mira😭😭😭, ik cuz of India (🫶 but also 🤨). Everytime Mira did something I was like please girl riks nahi lehne ka. When he said "are you still scared of your mom", like boy aren't you?

    In other news, I loved it. The director really captured the experiences and emotions of a teen-aged Indian girl. I wanna say, they showed the complexities in a privileged girl's life, at her school, her home and her relationships (mom, teachers, boyfriend). Reminded me of my school in India. The casting, cinematography, mise-en-scene 😙👌. My favorite parts are the climax and the ending.

    I loved it, that's all. My favorite scenes are between Jaya (new personality 🔓) & Poonam, and Phool & Manju Mai, at the end of the day, that's what friendships and girlhood are all about. Impt lesson: Padi da Parama, ie, Girl go study and thank all the women who have come before you, who let you have choices in life.
