A Tamil short film titled Lakshmi has created a furore on social media since it was uploaded 10 days ago by Ondraga Entertainment.

Directed by Sarjun KM, the film is about a woman, Lakshmi (actor Lakshmi), who has an extramarital affair. It's pretty straightforward why she decides to have this fling - Lakshmi is in an abusive marriage where her husband only treats her as a cook and caretaker. Lakshmi is like the pressure cooker with which she begins her day, building up steam and threatening to burst any moment.Her husband's callousness extends to the bed where he only thinks about his pleasure and rolls off as soon as he's done. He seems to have another woman in his life as well - there's a phone call from a woman who hangs up when Lakshmi answers and her husband refuses to give her an explanation. 

We're also shown Lakshmi meeting an attractive man on the train. Circumstances bring them closer and after a conversation in which he seems to be genuinely interested in her, Lakshmi goes home with him for a night.The ending of the film is a bit ambiguous - does taking the bus mean she will meet the man again, since it's at the bus-stop that they first have a real conversation? Or does it mean it was a one night stand since her regular transport is the train where she used to see him? At any rate, from the black and white grind of her routine, her world turns colourful when she meets him.

The film is not without its flaws. Lakshmi's "saviour", a stereotypical "artist", comes spouting lines from Bharathiyar as characters from Tamil films always do when they are out to "liberate" a woman. He makes her stand before the mirror and unwinds her tight plait, loosening her hair to make her see for herself what she could be (a faint echo of Mahendra Baahubali making Avantika aware of the "real woman" within her). The film would have worked better if Lakshmi's self-discovery had happened because she makes that internal journey herself - this is what sets apart films like English Vinglish and Queen.
