3BHK Movie Review: An unconvincing advertisement for middle-class success

3BHK Movie Review: A prominent part of the middle-class struggle is how society and its system place numerous obstacles in the way of an average family’s relentless pursuit of achieving a stable, comfortable life.

3BHK is about the same, but it is told through the perspective of the system. It’s not the system trying to show you a heartwarming tale of a family rising above insurmountable odds, romanticising its unfair ways. It is the system telling you how unfortunate it is that the middle class have to toil across decades, make thousands of sacrifices, beat their hopes, dreams and even love into shape so they fit the life it allows you to have. But it is still the system telling you, how, after all that, when you have crossed the best years of your life, and when your parents are closer to death, you can finally accept the rewards, the fruits, that three-bedroom apartment, with a smile. That is the point that makes 3BHK feel disingenuous, a film that is a metaphorical advertisement for middle-class life and a literal advertisement for a construction company.
