A Peck on the Cheek



This is a story about the search for the birth mother of a cute-naughty girl Amuda, with her loving and foster parent. The movie shows a nice juxtaposition of motherly love, love for nation, fear and terrorism as they search for Amuda's birth-mother. With all the intense terrorism and blasts there is a nice tone of humor in the portrayal of Amuda's present family and their love story. Words are less and best when used, like in all Maniratnam's movies that stand apart from the mostly verbose Indian movies.
