Sorry Bhai : Movie Review
Making a movie on a subject with incestuous connotations, even though slight, is always a tricky job. One might end up putting the audiences off.
But, expectedly, Onir displays sensitivity in walking the thin line and telling his story as a tale of relationships between different characters rather than a plain tale of forbidden love.

But the kind that one normally sees in life. That subtle tug or snap in relationships when people are drawn towards or pulled away from each other. That gradual mushrooming of an emotion towards another person.
