The beauty of effortless, subtle cinema

Without being loud, ‘Is Love Enough, Sir?’ says a lot about society’s classist attitude that governs everything—including love.

Busy in the kitchen, Ratna is preparing breakfast for her employee, Ashwin. Although Ashwin is her ‘sir’, the two share a closeness that makes Ratna feel attached to him. She understands him well, empathises with him. She makes an effort to pacify his broken heart, eventually leading her to fall for him. But her heart gets shattered when she sees a girl coming out of his bedroom. She knows what might have happened with the girl and her employer last night. She feels betrayed.
