What happens when you confine three middle-aged, single ladies to an apartment n make them sip wine? They drink n start speaking. Then they drink some more n then speak some more. #Sonata is an English film directed by #AparnaSen, which is not intended for the aam janata, but should certainly be experienced by discerning audiences. Shabana has the best part n she's top notch. Lilette shines in a minor role. She's abused by her beau, but gives the impression of being okay with it. Aparna plays the more dignified part, she makes it clear that she cannot be bindaas like the other two. There is a twist at the end n the film closes abruptly. Rating 3.5/5.
