Antardwand takes us to the rural heartland of Bihar portraying a story of groom kidnapping. It is not a regular subject in films and to be able to showcase it with such authenticity deserves a lot of credit. Sushil Rajpal tells a story through the characters and situations which look so raw and real. Groom kidnapping was rampant during a period and it adversely impacted the lives of the groom, the bride and more often their families. Marriages are not meant to be forcefully imposed and the tragedy which follows is very well presented here. How the voices of women were suppressed by the male members of her family leading to traumatic experiences for both groom and bride was rightly expressed. Not many film makers will have the guts or creativity to touch this issue makes the film all the more special and unique. However, the film was also predictable in parts which might be because of the anticipation. It definitely touched a chord with a million hearts. It will also encourage the new age film makers to experiment and explore social issues through their thought-provoking stories and spread awareness among the masses.
