Fabulous film set in Chennai–on India’s southeast coast–uses all the well-known boxing tropes to tell the story of a young woman who refuses to stay down. Kudos to writer/director Sudha Kongara for introducing a new feminist shero girls everywhere will root for with pride. (JLH: 4.5/5)
JLH NOTE:
Unfortunately, Sala Khadoos is not available at this time, however, if enough people add it to their GoWatchIt queues, maybe audience demand will bring it back to us!
