Even the wrong train can lead you on the right track

The first Indian film I watched, there was no singing and dancing, and the rhythm was very slow. Instead, I saw the taste of electronic love and untouchable lovers. If the heroine's husband cheated, then the heroine is also considered a spiritual cheater, pay attention to ethics India really did not let such films cross the red line. Bhutan, the happiest country in the legend, has become a utopia in the minds of the hero and heroine, but the open ending makes it impossible to guess whether the two will meet again. The male protagonist's struggle started when someone gave him his seat when he squeezed the bus. When he shaves his beard, he realized that he is already old. This kind of pain that I am not born to a king, and that I am old when the king is born makes the male protagonist dare not dare. Appearing in front of the heroine reminds me of Salinger's sentence: Love is a hand that wants to touch but withdraw. Finally, the lines mentioned by the male and female protagonists: the wrong train can also lead you to the right path. I think people who love each other will always meet.

    First Indian film without song and dance scenes

    Deeply rooted in everyday romance. Under the raucous Bollywood format, India's film industry is actually not to be underestimated, and delicate dramas like this are also readily available. It is set against the unique background of local culture, and at the same time tells a very universal story. The sympathy between middle-aged men and abandoned women because of loneliness and chance is heart-warming. Although the story has an obvious Indian color, it is amazing to see the expressions of Japan, South Korea and even Europe and the United States. I hope that this script structure can be remade locally in different countries, especially in China, but I can't imagine what is left of traditional culture that can be used as rootstock for grafting.

  • Saajan Fernandes: When my wife died, she got a horizontal burial cot... I tried to buy a burial cot for myself the other day, and what they offered me was a vertical one... I've spent my whole life standing in trains and buses... now I'll even have to stand when I'm dead!

  • Ila: Somwhere I read that the wrong train can lead you to the right station...
