The film opens with a moment of intimacy and affection and immediately begins a narratorial movement that will come full circle at the conclusion. The distance covered in between, however, paints an entire spectrum of stressors of urban lifestyles in big cities, especially if it involves a move from a smaller one.
The narrative further ropes in conflict but also the soft and inevitable intimacy that is capable of overcoming it all, no matter how big the obstacle. Rohit and Shruti might not see eye to eye on several things, sometimes even on very core, relationship-defining issues, but their shared love remains an indomitable force. The film also invokes performances and a shared chemistry that is easy and fully supportive of the swiftly developing screenplay and storyline. 'Pillow Talk' efficiently establishes the premise for more such projects, perhaps even longer ones, that should definitely be explored in the future.
