Movie Reviews

The Times of India - 9/10 by Meena IyerParched is a roadmap for our oppressed female population who have been victims of a misogynist mindset for eons. Tannishtha and Radhika are terrific, but it is Surveen who your heart bleeds for.
Cinemanía (Spain) - 9/10 by Carlos MarañónYadav's manages to entertain while telling the story of four women troubled by caste system, obsolete customs and sexism. [Full review in Spanish]
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 9/10 by Louis ProyectPowerful melodrama that combines "Thelma and Louise" with Bollywood conventions.
RogerEbert.com - 8/10 by Alissa WilkinsonParched is a filmmaker’s attempt to understand how and why these women continue to live.
FILMINK (Australia) - 7/10 by Travis JohnsonParched is a confronting film, set in a world of incredible chauvinism.
Eye for Film - 7/10 by Amber WilkinsonFemale freedom runs like gusts of wind through hair in Leena Yadav's Parched - refreshing and vital yet easily stilled.
Film Inquiry - 6/10 by Becky KuklaVisually stunning and tackling stories that are painfully difficult to tell, Parched should be at the top of your watch list.
Reuters - 6/10 by Shilpa JamkhandikarThe performances are hampered by some predictable writing and a director who seems to treat her characters and setting as a tourist rather than someone with an insider's point of view.
Filmfare - 6/10 by Rachit GuptaThe erotic nature of their conversations and their ability to retain their spirit through all adversity makes this film a true blue winner.
User Review - 10/10 by Choudhary SThis incredible film showcases the intertwined lives of 4 Indian women - I literally cried toward the end because of the evolved relationship between mother in law and daughter in law. I applaud the outstanding actresses and especially Director Leena Yadav for having the courage to make this much needed film - there is so much violence against women in the world, including acts of rape, theft, assault and battery, verbal and emotional abuse...we must stop these problems and let the Kishan's of the world thrive alongside strong women who are able to escape the Hell of backward traditions - no one's karma guarantees them this crappy life - they must find happy and fulfilling lives.
