Besides Bhashkor was also a hypochondriac and his health obsession was also a way to demand attention from his daughter and keep her on her toes!
Many sons and daughters have to deal with cranky, hypochondriac parents so the movie is quite realistic and lots of people identified with Piku as they are also caretakers of similar aged parents.

i know!! many senior citizens around me, my grandpa! my bestie's nani! it was all so relatble, slice-of-life at it's best👏👏

Yes,definitely a slice of life movie. My naani used to drive everyone insane with her demands! Have seen many Bhashkors in my life, whether male or female!

The movie is so much more than just constipation.

Did you hear when Bhaskor talked about Marriage? Daughter's Marriage? How he told 'his daughter is not virgin' to a prospective guy interested in his daughter?

Beautiful movie depicting old age Father & working- Managing house Daughter. Father is open minded. He thinks Marriage without purpose is Low IQ. How true? Marriage is not about kids & husband. He believed a girl should not lose her identity to get married. Such bold views in a culture where Marriage is the ultimate goal of a girl's life.

At the end the beautiful dialogue by Piku when Rana asked her 'ab kya karogi?'

Piku replies 'Baba ne itna to prepare kiya hai. Manage kar lungi?' so wonderful. It's like.. Bhaskor already had prepared her enough to face the struggles of life. Parents are not for pampering only. Preparing your child to face the reality is also one of the aspect of being there for your kids even when you are not. Your values.. your strength with them.

Though the first message everyone gets is - to take care of your parents in old age. But for me.. above 2 messages were so strong & stood best. 👏 Another thing was.. the beautiful backdrop of Bengali family & culture.
