The Valentine week is about to culminate soon and we want you to grab up on all the love possible. While romance is everlasting it’s these special days that give you a reason for celebration. So here we are with a new recommendation for the day!
This time its Tanuja Chandra’s ‘Qarib Qarib Singlle’ starring the immensely talented Irrfan Khan and Parvathy Thiruvothu. Streaming on both Zee5 and Netflix, the film is a unique blend of humor, romance, and emotional depth, therefore a great watch with your special one.
‘Qarib Qarib Singlle’ follows Jaya (Parvathy Thiruvothu), a 35-year old widow, whose life is pretty boring and monotonous. To spice it up a bit she joins a dating app and there she connects with the quirky and adventurous Yogi (Irrfan Khan). Despite being completely opposite, personality wise, together they embark on a road trip across country to revisit Yogi’s past relationships. While being together they not only come close but also confront their own insecurities and rediscover the joys of life and love.
‘Qarib Qarib Singlle’ is not your usual rom-com, it defies away from cliches and offers a more mature and realistic perspective on relationships. It explores the complexities of love and how there is no age bar when it comes to finding the one and falling for that person. Moreover, the road trip
adds adventure alongside offering stunning picturesque visuals of various Indian cities, like Rishikesh, Jaipur, and Gangtok.
The performances are stellar, the cinematography is great and the music is just phenomenal in ‘Qarib Qarib Singlle’. If you are looking for something heartfelt that has that fun part but isn’t cliched or impractical, ‘Qarib Qarib Singlle’ has to be on your list. Currently available on Zee5 and Netflix.
