ஒரு பெண்ணின் உணர்வு, ஒரு ஆணின் வக்கிரம், பெற்றோரின் கடமை மற்றும் சமுதாயத்தின் நிலை ஆகியவற்றை தெளிவாக சொல்லியிருக்கிறீர்கள். எல்லாமே வெகு சிறப்பு. ஆனால் இப்படிப்பட்ட சூழ்நிலையில் ஒரு பெண் தனது விருப்பத்தின்படி வாழ என்ன வழி என்று சொல்லியிருந்தால் அநேக பெண்களுக்கு பிரயோஜனமாக இருந்திருக்கும். வாழ்த்துக்கள்❤

It's so heartbreaking to see such a organic video where the life of a girl is explained! Hard truth but there are some good families too , all we people hope for a better husband/wife to live with but life is different for everyone we have to either accept it or over come it by choosing what's right for us ! Kudos to the team 💯👌
Awesome movie. Connection between the tree and the female lead was too good. Casting, camera, editing, music and sound effects ellame semma. Looks like a future film concept. All the best for the entire team.
No one can make their own home neither man nor woman! Both gender has to role play and live a set of norma dictated by the society to bring harmony for society at the expense own freedom. Sad reality of humam civilization 😢😢😢😢😢
To all the men who claim they don't understand women--she feels devalued as a woman by her family and her fiance. To her fiance, she is a conquest and nothing else. To her family, she is a burden. All she is asking for is to cherish and love her as God created her. She is worthy and valuable. Protect her heart and respect her boundaries. If you do, then she will do anything for you.
Perfection. SO many metaphors; such an art. Most short films feel like they dump the idea they want to share in between dialogues which never really affect me, but this, this was so different. It was SO hard to watch her feelings getting mistreated. And, I almost misunderstood the ending. As an aspiring story writer, I got greatly inspired. We talk about racism. But what about women. They are not second to men.
My wife was in a similar situation during those 3 weeks prior to our marriage, she totally avoided speaking with me, although we were in love for 8 years before that, she stopped taking calls and with no contact I just met her before the wedding day night.. Its really hard to understand women, anyway I stayed patiently, but still I question her about those unspoken days..
But till the end the girl didn't communicate properly what she wants and why she don't want to anyone. Open communication is always better in relationships. She can't assume that others will understand what is in her mind. Thats the only thing i felt a flaw in this. Otherwise its good and everyone acted really well.
beautiful acting by both the bride and groom, so much of expressions, the girl clearly showed the pain through her eyes and the guy expressed his disappointment without words, so much talent here. The story is flawless and dense, camera and music also very professional , all the very best to the team , awesome work
Here parents are selfish. Wanted to get rid of their daughter for that they choose her marriage, without her approvel. I am so sorry about this girl. They don't even stop to listen. I think most Indian families are like these 😔.
I really don't make much comments on any videos I watch, Just like or love it. After seeing video. Nothing has changed. I started writing comment, it will be never ending. Daughters are very precious. You brought them up so so so much love, affection, given attention to them every single thing in their life. When it comes marriage, don't even listen to daughters. because of society is main think differently. Then later on regrets. I really loved the short film. I wish parents need to be watching these kind of video. Women are strong now. They need to be finically independent. We never know, what feature holds for us. Thank you, Thank you for making this short film🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Kudos to the Director & the entire team 👏👏👏💐💐💐 for giving such a thought-provoking short film. The beauty of the film lies in it's multiple themes--suppression of women, domination of men, quest for liberation, freedom & self-identity by woman as also the deterioration of the values of marriage where marriage has come to mean mere sex. In the film, Nadhiya's feelings or the mental trauma is never understood by anyone, including her own mother & brother, who think that getting married & leaving parents home is the societal norm for a girl. The father, of course, doesn't value the sentiments of Nadhiya, be it the cutting of the tree or her own life & thinks that he is the sole decision-maker of everything in Nadhiya's life. There is an equally insensitive Harish, the boy with whom Nadhiya's betrothal has taken place. He assumes that he is empowered to decide on sex, for him sex before marriage is acceptable although Nadhiya is not inclined to his atrocious ideas. He is shown as yet another decision-maker for Nadhiya for the rest of her life. The father & Harish are men who are carrying forth the legacy of patriarchy by behaving like feudal lords who decide & have been deciding women's lives since the beginning of civilization. However, the film ends on a positive note & shows that times have changed. In the present scenario, girls are empowered & are standing at the threshold of life where they can, if they dare to, break away from the shackles of suppression & domination & have their own HOME & lead their own life. The 3 brushes shown in the film is symbolism of Nadhiya having left her parents HOME & her, trying to remove the engagement ring is symbolic of her trying to free herself from the fetters of an unpalatable betrothal with Harish. The cutting of the tree is a sign of her father crushing her sentiments & sensibilities. The diminishing needle on the speedometer of the car marks the ebbing of Nadhiya's interest in Harish & the soon-to-be marriage. Gone are the days when Men as Father & Husband ruled women's lives for centuries. Nadhiya, the NEW WOMAN, in the short film, shows that it will never continue to be so henceforth. She decides to leave her parental HOME in her quest for freedom, liberating herself from the shackles of marriage. She will have her own HOME which will ensure decision-making, freedom & liberation from everything that has tied her down so far. Nadhiya, thus, is no longer the "SILENT SUFFERER" but a symbol of the liberated "NEW WOMAN" who will live her life with self-esteem! What a wonderful concept! 👌👌👌
@@Happy1World I forgot quite a lot of things. Infact, we can do a full-fledged research on every aspect of this wonderful "food for thought" story. I forgot the empty clothesline having only 3 clothes in the end, at the beginning of the story, Nadhiya is shown putting clothes on the clothesline & there were many clothes. Also Harish giving lolipops to her in the car is a suggestive gesture & reflects his dirty mind & her refusing to eat it shows her displeasure towards his perverted behaviour. The condom falling out of his wallet disgusts her further because it only makes her realize that he can never be a caring husband for her for, he was only after her body. Just as her family doesn't consult her on anything, this monster Harish too was all set to ravage her body even before the marriage without her permission. Women are never part of any decision-making & poor Nadhiya faces the same situation in both places--her home as well as with Harish. The theory of "woman as man's property" has existed since ages & that's exactly what Harish tried with Nadhiya although there was only 3 weeks left for the marriage. Infact every woman has inclination & Harish never bothered to find out if on that day, she was inclined to have sex with him. To put it bluntly, on that day, Harish was hell-bent on raping Nadhiya in those 2 hrs in the resort. He receives his mother's phone call where she asks him to leave Nadhiya back in her house. Probably the mother knows the son's weakness for women. When Nadhiya gets out of his car, she tells him on his face that she doesn't like the idea of having sex with him. It is a hint to him that the engagement cannot go any further & she was all set to put an end to their relationship. Her trying hard to remove the betrothal ring in the auto is once again a sign of her determination to put an end to that engagement. Her father's emotional blackmailing only aggravates her further & strengthens her desire to leave home & explore the outer world. The insensitivity of her mother, brother & father makes her realize that she doesn't belong there so, she confidently leaves the "meaningless" stone structure called "home" to have a "cozy" home of her own. These days it isn't difficult for women to live independently provided they are empowered with education & economic independence. That's exactly what the story tries to highlight!
I fully understand and appreciate the FREEDOM the young woman like Nadhiya long for. Most of the working women of the Advanced world (the NATO countries) have already achieved what Nadhiya wish for. They have a job, their own bank a/c, own flat, own car and all the pleasures of daily life. But, many women of this comfort ask "What next? Where is the Man and my own child around me? I have my hair done every week, I wear fashionable designer clothes and I vacation in exotic places... But still, something is fundamentally missing. Look at my parents. My Dad does lots of work at home, he washes the cars, mows the lawn, vacuums the carpet, and my Mom just makes tea & cookies for him. They both sit and laugh at the weird behavior of the Modern Day Women!" Most of the Fans of Gloria Steinum 30 years ago, now look at their life and see "A hopelessness in their View of the Life. It is not wholesome!" Many hyper educated highly paid professional women now dial up to their College Classmates = the Men in their Class and ask "Tom, Are you free this weekend, I thought we can meet and catch up on things; so much water has gone under the bridge!" These women of high caliber long for the romance in their life with their counter part!! Ithu Eppudi Irrukku???
It’s very difficult to find families who accept girls looking after her family. Have faced this many times and decided to find a partner who feels equally responsible.

In recent times, I have rejected 10 girls due to their expectations. They are expecting the groom should stay with bride house after marriage. I rejected all after having a deep thought. I have asked them that lets stay somewhere near your home. I am completely believe in gender equality not a gender superiority. After that, I have given up the idea of marriage. Now, earning a decent amount to survive and will take care of my parents. No marriage!!! Peace!!!!!

In olden days women were married into their close circles.so they didn't have the difficulties of Nadhia.Religious practises, food,relatives were not changed,by marriage.Present day arranged marriages are not acceptable to independent women!To move into a new household with unknown people is weird!The shortfilm has conveyed this message beautifully!Good acting and nice script!❤
Own the 4 walls of the House and treat everyone as a slaves who can’t question the decisions of the Boss….the owner of the house…..It’s the woman who makes the Lifeless House a Living Home but her decisions are never necessary nor important…..Women don’t buy jewellery but surely build a house for yourself….or else the father, brother, husband or son will kick you like a football.
Simple theme of life but with a strong message where lack of understanding the other seems normal. It is not, understanding means to respect the other’s viewpoint. Decision making is the freedom that everyone should experience. Decisions come from rationale and reasoning , when understood will open the heart and love will blossom. No one can shut the mind that sees in another way, we can only try to understand. To follow societal norms are not wrong but it should not be imposed on young women and curb their sense of identity. As often said, once a daughter, always a daughter.
She leaves home & that is symbolically conveyed through the 4 brushes in the brush stand becoming 3 which means she has left home, breaking the engagement & having her own home. Her father tells her if she doesn't agree to the marriage she has no place in HIS home. So, the term 'home' gets a new meaning with his (father's) home becoming HER own home, full of freedom & liberty to do what she wants in life!
In the comment section below, I have made an elaborate analysis of the short film, if you find time, do read it for a better understanding of the storyline. 😊😊
All the comments I see here are positive ones. No doubt the film was depicting a great subject,for sure. But , of these wonderful commenters including the directory and cast, does the same thing in their own life. also, the story just raised the question already we knew but didn't gave a proper answer! Shit🤣
Thank you for your comment Padmanaban. This story was a real life depiction of what happens in society. As much as we would like it to have a happy ending, just like real life women are still forced into things like these.
@@jfw hmm.. i wasn't expecting happy ending, i was only expecting a solution or a way out of it which in most cases probably will not be happy one. Solution and happy ending are two different things.
More than anything - இந்த கதை young adults எவ்வளவு முதிர்ச்சி அற்று இருக்கிறார்கள் என்று சொல்லுகிறது. அப்பா அம்மா வை பார்த்து கொள்வது பற்றி இந்த காலத்து பெற்றோர் முடிவு செய்ய வேண்டும். நீங்கள் சண்டை போட கூடாது. கணவன் மனைவி வீட்டில் இருப்பது பற்றி முடிவு மணப்பெண் எடுக்க கூடாது. பெண்ணின் அம்மா அப்பா வீட்டோடு மாப்பிள்ளை வேண்டாம் என்று நினைத்தால்?? உப்பு பெறாத விஷயத்திற்கு இருவர் சண்டை இட்டு நல்ல மண வாழ்க்கையை கெடுத்து பெற்றோர் மனசையும் அவர்கள் hard work மற்றும் அமைதியை கெடுத்து விட்டார்கள். நல்ல கதை
She has left home & it has been symbolically conveyed through the 4 brushes in the brush stand becoming 3, 4 pairs of footwears in the shoe stand becoming 3 & clothes of Nadiya missing on the clothes line. Her trying to remove the engagement ring is a sign that she is going to put an end to that nonsense marriage with an insensitive partner who is keen on having sex with her before marriage. She tells him to his face that she doesn't like to have sex with him at all & abruptly gets down from his car & boards an auto. What has been proved in the story is that she is a representative of the "NEW WOMAN" willing to leave her father's home (he threatens her saying that if she doesn't agree to the marriage, then she has no place in HIS home) & have a HOME OF HER OWN where she will enjoy complete freedom & the power to do what she thinks is right! In other words, she is an EMPOWERED MODERN WOMAN willing to confront the society & lead her life with self-esteem & dignity!
🎉much appreciated 🙏 i too didn't get the full end meaning until I saw this explanation. Also the new cot remains in the carpenters godown is what I noticed , then the tree viewed again symbolic of expectations cut ✂️; and the mother not picking up the mobile probably it was her daughter calling. Ya ...today's women , girls need to stand in their integrity & firmness with their heads held high in society 👏 Thanks Dr. Stephen Srivatsan

I have my hair done every week, I wear fashionable designer clothes and I vacation in exotic places... But still, something is fundamentally missing. Look at my parents. My Dad does lots of work at home, he washes the cars, mows the lawn, vacuums the carpet, and my Mom just makes tea & cookies for him. They both sit and laugh at the weird behavior of the Modern Day Women!" Most of the Fans of Gloria Steinum 30 years ago, now look at their life and see "A hopelessness in their View of the Life. It is not wholesome!"
Many hyper educated highly paid professional women now dial up to their College Classmates = the Men in their Class and ask "Tom, Are you free this weekend, I thought we can meet and catch up on things; so much water has gone under the bridge!"
These women of high caliber long for the romance in their life with their counter part!!
Ithu Eppudi Irrukku???
It’s very difficult to find families who accept girls looking after her family.
Have faced this many times and decided to find a partner who feels equally responsible.
So, now you are with a simp, good luck
@@athulpmenon9573 stop with this alpha , beta, simp. For me a simp is far better than those so called alpha and sigma who think dominating women is cool
Nicely expressed the emotions of a girl through this short film... All the very best to Meenakshi Sundar and team for the upcoming projects...👍
Realistically portrayed film from each one’s perspective with a bold, decisive end by Nadiya.
Didn't understand the ending...did she marry?
Very good subject. If questioned about migration the answer is " Your mother and my mother have all done this. There's nothing new in it"
Good narration about a girl's emotion.. 👍
Thank You Mano! Stay tuned for such short films on our JFW channel!!

Every girl's feeling. Speech less🤐😢❤
In recent times, I have rejected 10 girls due to their expectations.
They are expecting the groom should stay with bride house after marriage. I rejected all after having a deep thought. I have asked them that lets stay somewhere near your home. I am completely believe in gender equality not a gender superiority.
After that, I have given up the idea of marriage. Now, earning a decent amount to survive and will take care of my parents. No marriage!!! Peace!!!!!

Nice one . One should have the freedom to enjoy their life. Why the hell you compel others to follow your thoughts and liking. Beautiful film.
What a story! Mind-blowing
It’s simply class. Cinematography is great. And the music as well.
It was really good.
Request to kindly add English subtitles.
Perfectly depicted the modern day women's situation, keep up the good work
Amazing work!
In olden days women were married into their close circles.so they didn't have the difficulties of Nadhia.Religious practises, food,relatives were not changed,by marriage.Present day arranged marriages are not acceptable to independent women!To move into a new household with unknown people is weird!The shortfilm has conveyed this message beautifully!Good acting and nice script!❤
That invitation card is impressive...💕
I felt so bad n cried when the tree was cut for this film. Why
You are right
Nijame cut pannalai bro.
Own the 4 walls of the House and treat everyone as a slaves who can’t question the decisions of the Boss….the owner of the house…..It’s the woman who makes the Lifeless House a Living Home but her decisions are never necessary nor important…..Women don’t buy jewellery but surely build a house for yourself….or else the father, brother, husband or son will kick you like a football.
Brilliant direction. Actors performance awesome. End can’t connect. Is she married or out from home?
And what if she doesn't have a brother..who else will look after the girl's family😶
This is a wonderful subject. Congratulations Meenakshi thambi and the whole crew.

Simple theme of life but with a strong message where lack of understanding the other seems normal. It is not, understanding means to respect the other’s viewpoint. Decision making is the freedom that everyone should experience. Decisions come from rationale and reasoning , when understood will open the heart and love will blossom. No one can shut the mind that sees in another way, we can only try to understand. To follow societal norms are not wrong but it should not be imposed on young women and curb their sense of identity. As often said, once a daughter, always a daughter.
Thoughtful shortfilm. Congrats to the team🎉
I could not understand the end of the movie.what was the end? But the film really expressed our emotions.. nice 👍 job..
She leaves home & that is symbolically conveyed through the 4 brushes in the brush stand becoming 3 which means she has left home, breaking the engagement & having her own home. Her father tells her if she doesn't agree to the marriage she has no place in HIS home. So, the term 'home' gets a new meaning with his (father's) home becoming HER own home, full of freedom & liberty to do what she wants in life!
@@jo-js2tc thank you. good end.
In the comment section below, I have made an elaborate analysis of the short film, if you find time, do read it for a better understanding of the storyline. 😊😊
True feelings of girls before marriage in India😢😢
அருமையான பதிவு...💔
Kudos to the director for showing such a great picture! Wonderful direction ✨
#Tharani, your acting skills are becoming better every day. Keep going.

Tharini babe!! wow amazing acting as always ❤❤god bless.. all the best to the complete team.. !!

Express of emotion is a rights it should not be given . women should be treated as a human with likes,dislikes and wish
Fantastic movie , a good thought, very relatable and relevant
வாழ்த்துக்கள் ✨️
Nice concept bro and sis 👍
All the comments I see here are positive ones. No doubt the film was depicting a great subject,for sure. But , of these wonderful commenters including the directory and cast, does the same thing in their own life. also, the story just raised the question already we knew but didn't gave a proper answer! Shit🤣
Thank you for your comment Padmanaban. This story was a real life depiction of what happens in society. As much as we would like it to have a happy ending, just like real life women are still forced into things like these.
@@jfw hmm.. i wasn't expecting happy ending, i was only expecting a solution or a way out of it which in most cases probably will not be happy one. Solution and happy ending are two different things.
@@padmanabanravichandran1863 expected the same
More than anything - இந்த கதை young adults எவ்வளவு முதிர்ச்சி அற்று இருக்கிறார்கள் என்று சொல்லுகிறது. அப்பா அம்மா வை பார்த்து கொள்வது பற்றி இந்த காலத்து பெற்றோர் முடிவு செய்ய வேண்டும். நீங்கள் சண்டை போட கூடாது. கணவன் மனைவி வீட்டில் இருப்பது பற்றி முடிவு மணப்பெண் எடுக்க கூடாது. பெண்ணின் அம்மா அப்பா வீட்டோடு மாப்பிள்ளை வேண்டாம் என்று நினைத்தால்?? உப்பு பெறாத விஷயத்திற்கு இருவர் சண்டை இட்டு நல்ல மண வாழ்க்கையை கெடுத்து பெற்றோர் மனசையும் அவர்கள் hard work மற்றும் அமைதியை கெடுத்து விட்டார்கள். நல்ல கதை
Many women’s life in 20 mins
I always ask myself , why should women leave after getting married
Excellent direction, congrats Machi

Superb dialogues
I can't understand the end what happened she married or not and every woman should have own house
Congratulations meen 💐all the best for ur bright future
Super
Well said 🔥 same reality here
So..what's the climax...Did she marry him or decided to leave the house?
She has left home & it has been symbolically conveyed through the 4 brushes in the brush stand becoming 3, 4 pairs of footwears in the shoe stand becoming 3 & clothes of Nadiya missing on the clothes line. Her trying to remove the engagement ring is a sign that she is going to put an end to that nonsense marriage with an insensitive partner who is keen on having sex with her before marriage. She tells him to his face that she doesn't like to have sex with him at all & abruptly gets down from his car & boards an auto. What has been proved in the story is that she is a representative of the "NEW WOMAN" willing to leave her father's home (he threatens her saying that if she doesn't agree to the marriage, then she has no place in HIS home) & have a HOME OF HER OWN where she will enjoy complete freedom & the power to do what she thinks is right! In other words, she is an EMPOWERED MODERN WOMAN willing to confront the society & lead her life with self-esteem & dignity!
🎉much appreciated 🙏 i too didn't get the full end meaning until I saw this explanation. Also the new cot remains in the carpenters godown is what I noticed , then the tree viewed again symbolic of expectations cut ✂️; and the mother not picking up the mobile probably it was her daughter calling.
Ya ...today's women , girls need to stand in their integrity & firmness with their heads held high in society 👏
Thanks
