The title of the film itself is split into the two main themes the film tackles: marriage (the 'hi' that Yakshna and Viraj say to each other) and parenthood. Other themes are successful marriages, failed marriages, how parents affect children, trauma, and moving on despite everything. Wanting only happiness without the accompanying sadness takes away all the beauty life has to offer. God has made the most beautiful tapestry and mixed all the ingredients to create a masterpiece. Accept life, no matter what.
"Let everything happen to you, beauty and terror..."
What is falling in love? The film shows perhaps a realistic love story where you confess your feelings and be firm in dealing with both acceptance and rejection.
Why do marriages fail? And what does it mean for children? The film shows how the body remembers even as an adult.
How to deal with trauma? I was positively moved by the scene where Viraj holds onto Yakshna as they both break into tears on the hospital floor watching their daughter across the glass.
A heartfelt movie that reminded me again what is important in life: the people you love, memories that you make, and moving on.
"Despite everything, life is beautiful".
This is the romantic in me speaking, but I enjoyed Mrunal Thakur's performance the most. Her presence is magnetic and her facial expressions paired with those eyebrows are charming to the core and darn gorgeous.
Special mention to the portrayal of Yakshna's fiance who was portrayed as a good guy, away from the norm of most Indian films.
