The CinePearl Take
Meenu Gaur’s debut is surprisingly polished, balancing slapstick moments with poignant realism. Amrinder Gill’s breakout performance as the earnest “Mickey” anchors the film, while Ali Abbas delivers a gritty counterpoint as the street‑smart “Laddi.” The pacing never lags, and the recurring motif of “running” becomes a metaphor for the characters’ yearning for freedom.
