REVIEW
Sometimes life puts before you hard choices. When a girl, infatuated with a person is asked to shoot photographs of his marriage, she finds herself in a quandary. Whether she accepts this task or not, explore the story, a different one, The Perfect Crush by Shriya Gupta.
Merits: Shriya has tried to narrate the story keeping the present and the past side-by-side. And to some extent she has become successful in bringing out her internal conflict and her feelings for the person getting married with another girl. It was a really difficult job to portray the character of a girl who'd a crush on a person visiting her home off and on, that too quite senior to her in age--a difference of ten years. I agree with the plot because boys and girls are seen to fall for those who visit their homes often, irrespective of their age. Congratulations to Shriya for penning such a bold story.
Lines I liked: "A crush is one who paints your life colorful; even if his own life is black and white."
Demerits: It was certain that the girl had some tender feelings for the person in question. And certainly she would have been experiencing a pain in her heart while filming his marriage with another girl. Would have intensified the story had those feelings been shown in some or the other way.
Ratings: 3/5
Overall a very good effort of writing a off the track story. Shriya, keep it up and give us more wonderful stories to read.
Wish you all the best.
