Jhini Bini Chadariya (2021)
A Must View
The Brittle Thread/ Jhini Bini Chadariya written and directed by Ritesh Sharma is a powerful, genuine and relevant movie. It portrays and raise awareness to the stark social and religious tensions and the hardship of life not usually portrayed in relation to the ancient and colorful city of Varanasi. It is a reality of Varanasi seldom seen on screen, mixing the lives of local Hindus, Muslims, pilgrims and tourists into collision and a heartbreaking climax.
The script and cinematography capture the essence and atmosphere of the deep social, religious and political conflicts in Varanasi in particular and Indian society in general, with a sensitive and nuanced plot and diverse and contrasting main characters. The two main narratives take place simultaneously, seemingly disparate though intertwined and end in tragedy. It is a story of love, religious hate, rage and anger, naïveté and pain. The characters are good and bad, strong and weak, which makes them relatable. The authentic, natural-acting, credible and excellent cast make a powerful impact. The characters feel and act real.
The Brittle Thread is an insightful, poignant and emotional movie developing from romance to tragedy. It's a beautifully realistic and sad movie. It is an important film to watch and I highly recommend it.
