The story kicks off when Vijay, on the eve of their wedding day, informs Rani that he has had a change of heart and thinks they are not right for each other. Dejected and heartbroken Rani feels she should build up the courage to be independent and bold rather than being helpless and reliant. With this epiphany she asks her parents to let her go by herself on the pre-planned honeymoon she was supposed to go with Vijay. Hesitant & scared her parents allow her to go. Rani starts her journey in Paris where she meets Vijayalakshmi (Lisa Haydon) a free spirited single mother.

The film carries on till the end in similar fashion with Rani trying fresh experiences, making new friends & creating life long memories all of which helps her find her own individuality and become a liberated women of the 21st century.
The Couch ReviewPublished 3 years ago in GeeksSaint Maud (2020) Review: Written at time of UK release
It has been a brutal few weeks for cinema, to put it lightly. Frankly, it's been a brutal few years, encroaching on a brutal decade or two, all culminating in these brutal few weeks. Tenet's stateside bomb may make Warner Bros. wish they had a special agent they could send back through time to halt its release, but alas. Nolan's sci-fi riff on Bond has meant that the ultimate British special agent has gone off-grid until 2021, leaving cinemas in literal shutdown levels of turmoil. What a treat, then, in amongst all the chaos to be provided with a diabolical triumph like Saint Maud. Throughout its runtime (clocking in at a brisk 85-minutes, cause for celebration itself) I was able to forget entirely about the precarious knife edge the cinematic experience is dangling on, to forget about the rampant disease sending the world into a seemingly unending downward spiral (a solitary cough from a fellow cinema goer across the room tugged me briefly back to reality, but I was soon re-engrossed), to forget, basically, about all the shit and instead focus on an absolute corker of a debut feature.
Robert DarkePublished 3 years ago in GeeksCaught Off Guard w/ "The Witcher"
Netflix Original Series The Witcher, has developed quite the following this year since its release in late December 2019, becoming one of those Netflix series a handful of people in your social groups tell you “is so good, you have to watch it!”. Having heard this phrase countless times and with additions to “My List” increasing faster than decreasing, I decided I’d finally start the show and finish it within the week. Well, that day has officially come!
Final Fantasy 7 Phase 1
Hello everyone. This is the first chapter of a Final Fanatsy 7 fanfiction I've been wanting to write for a while, and just decided to go for. I love this story and universe. It was the best thing to happen to me in 2020 and probably for a long time.
Antonio QuinonesPublished 3 years ago in GeeksChainsaw Man
I read all of Chainsaw Man in three days and it was a totally awesome experience. When I first started reading, I honestly had no idea what I was in for. The series first piqued my interest on Tumblr when I started seeing different panel illustrations on certain blogs that I follow. I liked the artwork because it gave me a Tokyo Gxhoul-esque vibe, and that was enough for me to start. At first, I thought the story would revolve around Denji, the main character, and his escapades in his involvement with the Japanese mafia. I quickly realized after chapter one that this was not the case, not even a little bit. After being killed by the mafia, Denji forms a contract with his devil dog, Pochita, and revives in the form of the chainsaw devil, known as Chainsaw Man. Denji is soon meant with a plethora of other characters and becomes a Public Safety Devil Hunter. Soon after Denji accepts the PSDH position, chaos ensues.

Steven LeitmanPublished 3 years ago in GeeksMusings On Something Great
Honestly, the reason why I watched this Netflix Original Movie was for Gina Rodriguez. She is just so addictive to watch. Her facial expressions, humor, and she oozes confidence. *I wish I had that much confidence in my body.*
Stop Cancel Culture
Hello My Love, As time goes on, people fight and argue about race, religion, and sexual orientation, I am growing tired of the selfishness and ignorance of others. Focused on judging everyone but themselves.
'The Bold and the Beautiful' brings back Joe LoceCero as Vinny Walker
Many of those who watch The Bold and the Beautiful cannot figure out the connection between Thomas Forrester and his friend Vincent Walker. Thomas is heir to the Forrester Creations fashion dynasty and was raised in the lap of luxury. He has millions of dollars at his disposal and hangs out with the rich and famous, or at least he did. Ever since Matthew Atkinson took over the role in 2019 viewers have been seeing a different version of Ridge and Taylor's son. When Pierce Forde was in the role, Thomas gave Sally Spectra a large sum of money to start her up her fashion house.
Cheryl E PrestonPublished 3 years ago in GeeksBatman Animated: A Guide to the world of the Dark Knight
Batman Animated: The Guide to the Dark Knight Batman is 82 years old with piles of books, movies, and any other form of media one could think of sure has a stockpile of ways to delve into Gotham. As a fairly new fan of the Dark Knight, I found watching his library of animated films a daunting, yet addicting task. It is overwhelming trying to figure out where to start watching the crusades of the caped vigilante, so I will attempt to list and give a brief explanation as to why I think this would be the most rewarding and easiest path to dive into the world of the Dark Knight.
