Kicking tradition to the curb

? Polite Society, a fun and bold film that takes on tradition and rebellion. This thrilling martial arts comedy brings a fresh twist of Bollywood flair that comes from the creator of We Are Lady Parts. The film offers a mix of humor, action, and a sharp critique of patriarchal norms — all while keeping you hooked with its high-energy, stylish sequences.

What’s the premise? Ria (Priya Kansara), a high schooler with big dreams of becoming a stuntwoman, tries to fight back against the constraints of tradition. Her sister, Lena (Ritu Arya), is stuck in an arranged marriage to the wealthy Salim (Akshay Khanna), and Ria’s determination to save her sparks an adventure.

It’s energetic, fun, and cleverly paced. The action sequences, though not always perfect, offer a playful mix of Bollywood dance and cartoon-ish slapstick. But it’s the heart of the film that really shines — the power of sisterhood, independence, and a woman’s right to choose her own destiny.

WHERE TO WATCH- You can watch the film on OSN+ or watch the trailer on YouTube (runtime:2:37).
