are more incredible than fantasy movies,
more cruel and ruthless than war movies,
more confusing and confusing than suspense movies, and more evocative
than romance movies.

The film is ranked 25th in IMDB Top Rated Indian Movies. Kangana Ranaut’s performance is impressive. This is an Indian film unlike an Indian film, without the traditional Indian song and dance. The narrative is very smooth and compact, and the inner transformation of the characters is described in detail. It has a very good enlightenment for the majority of women. It can also be regarded as a feminist film from a certain angle. Indian films are so magical, in a society where women are generally low in status. However, this kind of film with the theme of women's awakening can appear in the middle, and the filming is full of visibility. It is very worthy of respect and learning. Xiao Wuwu is recommended by five stars!
