This movie neither exceeded nor fell far short of my expectations; despite not fulfilling all of my innermost desires, it was compelling enough for me to see the entire production.
Gulmohar is a tender, touching story about the Batra family, who, in the face of broken promises and tragic truths, must restore faith in their shattered homes and fractured relations.
A mother's wish, a son's realisation, and a father's reconciliation, together with other elements, made the entire scenario extremely thought provoking and high on relatable emotions.
My sole criticism is not with the film per se, but with the fact that I've seen better films in this genre; not only Bollywood, but many regional industries have been busy producing similar flicks, and some of them appear brighter! I'm not in any way implying that this was a mediocre attempt; let's just say I expected greater things from it and it failed to deliver!
