Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of anyone who values honest, human stories and romantics. It deals with hard things honestly. If you loved A Woman Under the Influence or All the Bright Places, start here. More of a critics' pick than a crowd-pleaser: worth it if you like something a little different.
The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
A big, patient story, at 3 hr 7 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated R: expect drug use.
  • It's long: 3 hr 7 min.
  • It's in Telugu, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A brilliant but impulsive young surgeon spirals into self-destruction after a painful breakup, struggling to cope with love, loss, and the consequences of his own temper.
