Alia Bhatt’s ‘Darlings’ movie is out on Netflix and for her fans, this is a visual delight. For her first project as a producer, Alia picked a very sensitive topic which is itself a bold move by the actress.
The story is a dark black comedy revolving around domestic violence in a chawl in Mumbai. So far, the movie caught the audience’s interest through its narrative trailer by Alia Bhatt.
Darlings movie trailer starts with a story of a frog and Scorpio on the river and how the frog got stung by Scorpio.
Here Alia is that frog and actor Vijay Varma is the one who stings her but the story doesn’t end here .
Darlings Movie Review and Story Plot
The movie is a story of a young couple Badru(Alia) and Hamza(Vijay) who falls in love and get married after Hamza gets a railway job. After a couple of years, the reality of Hamza made Badru suffer.
Hamza is an alcoholic and beats Badru on small matters but convince his wife that he regrets his actions. And as a wife who is in love, Badru forgives her husband.

She believes once they have a baby her husband will change but it doesn’t happen. Shamshu, Badru’s mother, feels bad for her daughter and advised her to get rid of him.
Kill him even, if he is that bad. How does Badru deal with her abusive husband brings the whole fun.
Darlings movie shows this in a light manner that entertains the audience as well as gives a message to all women not to suffer domestic violence.
However, the idea to take revenge as shown in Darlings keeps popping up the question of wrong and right.
But, if you are not too much worried about it then watching Darlings movie will be fun.
Alia and Shefali Shah in their first collaboration are a treat to watch. The chemistry is good throughout the movie.

#Darlings may not be a gripping domestic noir but it makes some powerful observations through the eyes of two women who won't cave under pressure. #ShefaliShah and #AliaBhatt are outstanding as they feed off each other's energy as actors. #Review https://t.co/iaTd7ZLh98 #Netflix pic.twitter.com/bUdjsStYsQ

Sure, @aliaa08 is incredibly privileged and born with a silver spoon, but look at her craft man. She's talented, versatile, hard working, and just keeps upping her game with each of her films. #Darlings
