If you are a mother you must watch this movie, Pihu’s trailer out

NP NEWS 24 ONLINE – There are multiple films in Bollywood which showcases the endless love between a mother and child. Right from Mother India to Mom. Making an entire feature film that revolves around a two-year-old girl is not easy. In fact, to even suggest such a venture to any producer would require nerves of steel. And yet scribe-turned-filmmaker Vinod Kapri has done it.

The trailer of “Pihu” is not just a film about a two-year old girl’s survival instincts when she’s left alone in her home, it also unfolds like a true-blue thriller (with an over-punctuated background score), with routine sounds in the house such as the sound of the phone in the living room or the swish of the cooking range in the kitchen acquiring a menacing dimension.

As the trailer opens, viewers see a sweet little girl, Pihu, waking up, playing with her balloon, switching on the TV to dance to her favourite songs and a chaotic home with toys and household items scattered all around. We get to know that she is alone at home (we do see a woman lying on the bed but she doesn’t wake up). The little girl tried to wake up her mother, shakes her arm, slaps her face but she just would not wake up.

All alone, Pihu first gets locked inside the fridge, switches on the geyser and other electrical items. Pihu also tries to fix herself a meal, first using a microwave and then on a gas burner. A child in such close proximity to fire surely makes the viewers nervous.

Throughout the trailer, Pihu trips, falls, skips and at one point, her doll falls from the balcony of her high-rise apartment. When the trailer ends, we see her climbing on the balcony’s railing and we all skip a heartbeat. In short, the trailer shows that what is every parent’s worst nightmare.
