Jigyaasa is this intriguing drama that traces the journey of a middle-class girl, Jigyaasa Mathur, who dreams of becoming a film actress. The film dives into her aspirations and the weight of family expectations, especially with her mother, Malini, a principled school teacher who supports her but also exudes a palpable sense of caution. There's a certain rawness to the performances, especially with how they capture the complexities of ambition and familial love. The pacing feels reflective, allowing you to soak in the emotional undertones. It has this atmospheric quality, somewhat nostalgic, that makes you ponder the cost of dreams against the backdrop of societal norms.
