Awesome Movie
The Japanese Wife is
quite different from what we generally see in the trash of Bollywood.
The use of symbolism in various scenes is quite evident in the movie.
Though I find the scenario of the Bengali village very backward, may be
because I am from metropolis. This is a brilliant piece of work by the
crew. It is a Love story that is the only thing I want to tell as I
don't want to spoil the fun of watching it. Meaning of the Love and
Marriage is redefine in it. The only disappointment is that there is the
use of Bangla/Bengali language in major part of the movie which I as an
non-Bengali unable to understand. But even then it evoke emotions
within me. And I took the whole pain of registering here on this website
just to write that it is a MUST WATCH movie. Hoping that distributors
might be giving some subtitle along with the DVD for this movie.
