The behind-the-scenes photos are so authentic! It's refreshing to see actors actually immersing themselves in village life rather than just pretending. The simple meal scene looks genuinely heartwarming.

While I appreciate the effort, I hope the film doesn't romanticize village life too much. Many of us have roots in villages and know the real struggles. Hope they've shown the authentic challenges.
