Most girls often grow up on Disney fairytales, romantic movies and Barbies — all of which define women’s beauty in a certain way. Fair and flawless skin, slender waist, long legs, petite frame and gorgeous hair. Even actresses who don’t meet this checklist, aren’t really in the ‘mainstream’. Those who do, are worshipped and desired.
Our race to fit in begins right from our childhood. The society sets unrealistic standards of beauty and women must live upto those expectations. If you don’t, you are considered unworthy of success, love or marriage. Enakshi’s hair-loss sucks the happiness out of her life. She stares at every other woman with envy, covers her head with a scarf and struggles to put up a brave front. Her simple parents are willing to do anything for her hair regrowth treatment and a guy quietly nurses feelings for her. But can Enakshi free herself from wallowing in self pity? Rapunzel used her gorgeous hair to escape the tower but what happens when your thoughts are your tower of prison?
Qasim Khallow’s film is a heartwarming tale of conquering fear, crushing societal standards of beauty and exploring the parent-child bond. The film is most relatable for women, who are conditioned to believe that they ought to be perfect if they wish to ‘bag a good husband’.
Other than presenting a story that’s deeply personal yet relatable, Gone Kesh primarily works owing to its great casting. Shweta Tripathi portrays the trauma of her condition in the most real, understated manner.
