A Well Made Endearing Film On Man-Woman Relationship

Chi la sow is beautiful for its well written characters. It has been a while when we got to see a strong woman character in cinema. Rahul's Anjali is so real and respect worthy. She is strong, knows what to do and carries herself so brilliantly. At the same time, she is flawed too and that's what makes her so relatable and REAL. (more)

Rahul Ravindran makes a promising directorial debut with this sweet love story

Chi La Sow is a promising debut for Rahul Ravindran, It feels like the subtext and emotion underlying the film are more significant than what we see on screen. Maybe, it is more important to start a conversation. And Chi La Sow asks us: What does it take for you to say 'yes' to someone, whether it is love or marriage? It will leave you a lot to think about and quite frankly, it is a film which expects you to connect the dots, maybe also in your own life(more)

Simple & Sweet

Generally, romantic films are full of dance and fancy romance. But debut director Rahul Ravindran makes things interesting by creating a love story in an unusual situation and shows that how love can blossom with just a few precious moments. Sushanth will get the break he is looking for and Rahul Ravindran is a director to watch out for. The pace of the film is a bit slow and the regular movie watchers will find things little tough as there are no commercial elements involved. Apart from this, Chilasow is a well made romantic drama which keeps you hooked. Go for it.(more)

For those looking for entertainment as understood today, this may not be the film.

Rahul Ramakrishna as a cop with his firm looks and stern voice grabs attention. Vennela Kishore as Arjun's friend has a role to add a dose of humour. For those looking for entertainment as understood today, this may not be the film. But if you are someone who is faced with odds, Anjali, nay, Ruhani, will be an inspiration.(more)

Rahul Ravindran gifts a cute rom-com

Chi La Sow is not a film that will impress you from the first frame. As the story progresses, you end up falling in love with the characters; you can't help it.(more)

Works in Bits

'Chi La Sow' has some good moments, some boring episodes. Second half is fairly better if you excuse the slow pace(more)

Love story with feel good vibes

The highlight of the film however, is definitely Ruhani Sharma, who makes her debut as lead actress. She is simply superb with her emotions and acts like a veteran. She throws a big surprise with her stunning performance as a strong, independent and typical middle-class girl.(more)

A feel-good romance

All characters in the movie, even the supporting ones have significance if not depth. Arjun is a careless youth who has only himself to worry about. Anjali is an independent woman handles life as it comes at her. Neither of the protagonists try to woo each other. It does indeed fall into place in a nice bow by the end of the film. Rahul Ravindran did an amazing job in writing real characters that appeal directly to your emotions.(more)

Romance, as real as it gets

Everything happens on one night when the two are thrown into unexpected situations. It's not easy holding the attention with a small bunch of characters that are regular people, not larger than life, not oddball ones that do something bizarre to spike up interest. (more)
