I really really enjoy Neeti Mohan, I even saw her live because I enjoy her so much that I was willing to go to a weird little theater in Chicago and see a weird little show to hear her live. Just an amazing voice! Much more powerful than female playback singers are usually allowed to be in Hindi film.

Yaaaaay! A good happy movie! If you want a film that is satisfyingly well-made, and has a nice happy love and kindness message, you should watch this! I was very worried, because it is the kind of film that can suddenly turn dark and angry without warning (like, Super Deluxe). But no! I can report that it stays in the zone of “the world is ultimately just and people care for each other”.
