Still, for all the warning signs, there are moments of cinematic magic. A scene where the family looks up at a fractured sky and the child’s voice, in Hindi, cuts through the soundtrack with a simplicity that makes his throat tighten. A fight with silence — an astronaut drifting, the world reduced to breath — lands differently, but it lands. He laughs, he leans forward, he watches the credits roll and feels the small satisfaction of a story completed.
