More than emotional I was pissed off 😔 Her health was making progress so there was NO need to kill her but Shoojit has a knack of showing loved ones passing away. He did the same in Piku and Madras Cafe.

it was a lousy ending.

it felt very abrupt and made little sense to me

and the worse part was that banita and vd for the few scenes where she was out of the coma they had amazing chemistry.

i felt cheated

the movie pisses me off

indian writers, directors are so one dimensional. for a movie to be good or diff one of the characters have to die.

coz we cant have a good indian movie without someone dying


i wnt watch this movie again even though i thought varun was simply amazing in it

Killing her off didn't sit well with me either, her health was improving and it wud hav been a better ending with Dan continuing to look after her, but I guess it showed the reality that this kind of stuff happens, her health was getting better but she still had some neurological problems and so suddenly died, it can happen wen u least expect it

But more than that Wat confused more was how Dan hardly payed any attention to her wen she was alive and healthy, but wen she went into a coma he literally became obsessed with her, it was very weird behavior from Dan, I wud hav been more convinced if he had feelings for her before she had the accident

He was not obsessed with her, initially. He only wanted to know why she uttered his name before the accident.

But that was the whole point of the movie,right? Thematically,Shiuli like the flower was seasonal and wasn't meant to stay beyond the season of October. It showed how fragile human life is and how death is unexpected that even when you think you've recovered, you might be wrong. That's why it's a beautiful story of mortality. I frankly didn't enjoy the pre interval part of the film much but post interval,I think the makers took a really good turn with the story.

That was all because of that one dialogue- 'Where is Dan?'. It might have been a casual question or Shiuli was interested in Dan and was looking forward to see him at the new year party but that question remained unanswered. Was it casual or out of interest? Why did she ask of Dan of all people? Why was her last word before the accident 'Dan'? I think it puts a lot of stress and inquisitivity on that person whose name was taken for the last time. That whole thought of 'Why my name' led Dan to slowly become obsessed with Shiuli. I guess his intentions were more to know why she took his name and that would only be possible if she recovered and then slowly while helping her to recover,he got habituated to it. Also, not to forget that Dan was treated badly at his hotel and was weird. And then to know someone actually showed concern for him (even if it was a casual question) automatically made Dan emotional for Shiuli. She was the only 'stranger' in the group of trainies who called out for him.

Despite his irritable nature & idiosyncrasiesšŸ˜† Dan used to help them out earlier as well, very small instances like bringing the scotch bottles, or changing the tyre of her car...

And when he got to know about her last coherent sentence was "Where is Dan?" it became a hook for him, in the process he discovered the purpose of (his) life...
Last name she uttered before dying was also Dan, last alphabet she wrote was also 'D', last person who saw?! her soul was also Dan ā¤ļø

October is beyond beautiful, sooo layered & well nuanced, that with every watch I discover some new subtlety.

But he was shifted to another city? That doesn't happen until and unless the patient is stable. She reaches there and he is dead while he wasn't in a bad condition earlier.
