A unique feature film that comes as a critical insider of the society and its flaws. The narrative, screenplay, cinematography of the film make it realistic and closer to the audience. Hopping beyond the hero, heroine centric storyline, the film portrays consequences faced by the key characters as the connecting thread in an open canvas, apt to its title 'Soojidara'. The aspects of moral policing, re-reading of our own epics, aspirarions of a talented country girl, the narrative of another young girl who gets into the clutches of a strange man and her helplessness show up the director's close reading of the social mlieau. The open ending narrative of the film engages the audience as it makes own draw their own conclusions on the deliberate grey areas that the film offers. Characters that get stuck in the cobweb of situations and their helplessness to deal with it is makes the film relevant.
