I'm Ria Khan. I am going to be a stuntwoman. My sister Lena is the only person who believes in me, but lately she's been seeing this guy who I think is a bit of a smarmy wanker. Now, I'm not being dramatic, but these people are evil.
Polite Society: martial artist-in-training Ria Khan believes she must save her older sister Lena from her impending marriage. After enlisting the help of her friends, Ria attempts to pull off the most ambitious of all wedding heists in the name of independence and sisterhood.
From director Nida Manzoor, who created We Are Lady Parts, and starring Ritu Arya and Priya Kansara.
Definitely going to see this on the big screen if I can!
Polite Society is my favourite film I have watched this year so far. If it is playing near you, PLEASE go watch it.
The perfect amount of ridiculous and hilarious and joyful and heart warming.
A solid 11/10. I literally cannot remember the last time I laughed so much - and out loud - in a cinema.
Obv I also have to mention Gurinder Chadha and Mindy Kaling for being trailblazers and paving the way for stories like this, and for girls like us to have a place on the big screen. I will never, ever grow tired of seeing stories with ✨ flavour ✨
I love you Ritu Arya and Priya Kansara and Shobu Kapoor and Nimra Bucha. Thank you Nida Manzoor ❤️
