  1. Not only is it Merchant's best directorial effort to date but also is among the finest films the Merchant Ivory company has ever made.
  2. 80
    Impeccably produced.
  3. 60
    Brought to life by the weirdness of its subject matter and the risks Madhur Jaffrey takes in her brilliant performance.
  4. 30
    Forlorn melodrama, which is low on drama and high on mellow.
