Review
'Sukhee' is an ambitious cinematic take that attempts to delve into the intricate realms of femininity and hushed voices. The film unfolds with a storyline by Radhika Anand, with Sonal Joshi as the writer and Paulomi Datta handling the screenplay. The idea of the narrative is an appreciable one, shedding light on the buried aspirations of women, however, the execution falls somewhat short.
The primary character, Sukhee, is projected as a stereotypical 'Adarsh Bahu,' a homemaker by profession. Fundamentally, the exploration of Sukhee's suppressed desires and subtle rebellion against societal norms warrants a commendation. Nonetheless, the storytelling came across as superficial with a lack of depth into the various societal taboos and problems these women face.
The direction by Sonal Joshi feels visually constrained, where her attempt to inject subtlety into the narrative often appears overdone and in-your-face. The pacing of the film feels fast and crammed, exploiting the narrative potential too hastily within four days.
Performances varied with Shilpa Shetty bringing her unique screen presence to play Sukhee. Although central to the movie, her portrayal often seems contrived due to excessive vanity undermining the realism of her character. Chaitannya Choudhry undoubtedly shines with his exemplary portrayal of an entitled man-child. His performance feels relatable and authentically presented. Other actors, including Kusha Kapila, Dilnaz Irani, and Pavleen Gujral, even though having crucial roles, appear somewhat overlooked.
The film's visual composition feels overly sanitized, implying an unrealistic portrayal of settings like local bus stop washrooms that appear too clean and ideal. Graphics and animation, if any, didn't make a significant impact as the overwhelming sanitization overshadowed it.
In terms of editing, the film could have benefited from more precision. The inclusion of unnecessary scenes contributed to the overstuffed feel of the movie. Attention towards more nuanced moments and a deeper exploration of the characters could have given the film an appealing pace and smooth transitions.
The music selection is average, with a disappointing version of Ali Sethi's rendition by T-series.
In conclusion, "Sukhee" will appeal to those viewers who appreciate lighthearted explorations of serious themes. It attempts to portray the less-discussed feminine concerns, providing a modicum of representation. It's a film targeting audience who prefer a modern take on societal norms and the power dynamics that binds a woman. Unfortunately, its lack of depth and character development may disappoint those in search of profound and thoughtful cinema. It's worthy cause, but the execution doesn't quite hold the water it sets out to.
