😆 One more Q along the same line, do they sell banana leaves in the market too ? because I am sure they would run out of the leaves from the trees in the backyard , right ?

No its usually used at some traditional functions like a pooja or marriage. Its easy to dispose and biodegradable. In my hometown in rural India,there are still homes where they take care of 4-5 cows so most of the meals are on banana leaves and then we just dispose it off in the cow shed where the cows eat it.

I was expecting similar disastrous impressions of college life in 2 States. BUT thankfully in this film - students LOOKED like students, students did NOT own Ferraris, there were NO stereotypically gay or sexy teachers, NO girls roaming around in bikini and there were no life-and-death marathons. The college life depicted in the prestigious IIM-A stayed true to how the college life is in reality. There is a scene where Ananya asks Krish "what are your parents expecting after graduation?" - these are the kind of conversations that students have. The placement day brought me so much of nostalgia. Even though in a very small portion, I felt Varman did capture the culture and essence of college life in India - kudos!

This I really agree with, it was nothing OTT, different from what they normally show in movies about Indian School/College life. That's why this movie was better than some movies which have the same story line.

2 states was an okay watch...but gosh! so damn overrated esp on this forum 😆🥱

And seriously...all that drama for being from two different parts of india...where was their parent's "consent" when they were doing "it" in their college dorms rather than studying 🤔

And the only thing I "liked" about the film was Aloo..

(and i guess amrita for her punjabi act but miss bhalla is way better) 😆
