Starring Alia Bhatt, Vijay Varma and Shephali Shah, Darlings is a movie that will keep you hooked with its brilliant storytelling. The cast of course has given their phenomenal performances, and you would not want to skip a single minute.
It even became difficult to hate the antagonist of the movie played by the exceptional Vijay.
The story revolves around Badru and Shamsu, the powerful mother daughter duo who fought till the end. It raises question on emotional abuse and domestic violence given by Hamza to his wife Badru.
When a sweet and loving person turns into a devil, it’s difficult for a woman to accept it. Badru tried everything to save her marriage and her love for Hamza, kept falling on his honey trap and sugar coated romantic words, gave herself enough reasons to stay but alas! Patience lost its test.
Shamsu is a brave woman living on her own and a strong mother who supported her daughter when she decided to take her revenge. She has her own story to tell, but didn’t let her past hinder Badru’s future.
She let go of her when she decided not to be a scorpion and earn her own respect. Badru is that strong character who did not misuse her lost courage to do wrong to her husband.
The climax of the movie has shocked every one of us. Zulfi is that one character we’ve all loved from the beginning to the end. His confession made us all shocked. The stereotype broken by him melts our heart and makes us laugh at the same time.
Overall, the movie gives us a good lesson on what impact a domestic violence has on women, both emotionally and psychologically.
The movie gave women wings to fly and fight for their own rights, and not to stay quiet and suffer the violence. It is a good watch if you wish to watch something intense yet comical, evil yet earnest.

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
