#sir(2018)

"The film is profoundly anchored in Bombay and describes contemporary Indian society. It is a universe in which the caste system is slowly evolving into a class system, and in which social divisions are still hard to overcome."

Sir (2018 film) is a watch I don't regret. 

And yes, thanks to the Netflix blurb I knew they'd fall for each other, the suspense of the movie was only about the when and the then what? 

And of course I am not at all disappointed with the slow buildup to that one moment that changes everything for them - it was a very rewarding wait. 

Then once the initial euphoria of rooting for a love-conquers-class story died down one realizes that even though the sensitive, gentle, kind Ashwin may seem to be the progressive, accepting hero; it is actually Ratna who is the hero of the movie. She reminded me so much of Jane Eyre.  Ratna and Jane Eyre both dreamed of more but wouldn’t compromise on their ideals.
