Columbus

About This Movie

Columbus (2015) is an interesting blend of comedy, drama, and romance. It’s centered on Ashwin, a college student whose infatuation with Indu becomes a bit of a distraction from his academic ambitions. The film really captures that youthful obsession and the awkwardness that comes with it. The pacing feels almost leisurely, allowing the emotional undercurrents to breathe. You get a sense of longing, not just in Ashwin's pursuit of Indu but also in how the characters navigate their own lives. The performances are fairly genuine, with a tone that balances light-hearted moments against the backdrop of more serious themes like purpose and connection. There’s a subtlety to the relationships that makes it stand out, even amid some melodrama.
