Review of Gargi

Gargi (2022)
10/10
A stellar Sai Pallavi show!
17 August 2022
Director Gautham Ramachandran deserves all the praise for handling such emotionally absorbing & delicate subject matter with much grace & respectful manner from the very beginning. But the star of his twisted, hard hitting legal drama is Sai Pallavi on the titular role. She's a calm, determined & self-dependent woman who seeks justice for her father who is accused of rape of a 9 year old girl! Pallavi as Gargi owns every frame of the movie with a very realistic, compelling performance. Her pain, helplessness and desperation is the heart of this shockingly moving tale. This is definitely one of the finest performances by an Indian actress I have seen in recent years.

The supporting cast also did a tremendous job for conveying the impactful essence of this cinema. A special nod I'd like to give to Saravanan, the man who soulfully portrayed the father of the victim.
