On Father’s Day, watch these films to bask in paternal warmth
Piku: This sweet and salty 2015 Shoojit Sarkar directorial captured the highs and lows of a co-dependent relationship between a hypochondriac father and his spunky daughter. There is a certain role reversal here as the father monopolises the attention of his daughter while she has to parent his mood swings, complaints and bouts of anxiety about little and big things. The two constantly fight, bicker and talk over each other but also share a bond that nothing and nobody can weaken. Produced by N. P. Singh, Ronnie Lahiri and Sneha Rajani, the film reminds the audience that there will come a time when a parent who has always been the source of strength will grow older, weaker and will need care, time, patience and unconditional love. The film starred Deepika Padukone in the titular role along with Amitabh Bachchan and Irrfan Khan.
