In 'Thank You For Coming,' that penny never drops. What is the conflict in Kanika's life? She's never had an orgasm? Sure, it's a legit issue for countless women, one so many of us don't even realize, as her mother tells her. This ONE concern takes over Kanika's very being, she seemingly even hallucinates only about sex. It's like writers Radhika Anand, Prashasti Singh, and director Karan Boolani knew where they wanted to start the film and how it was going to end, (a climactic reveal one can see coming since about the mid-point) but what to put in between, they figured out as they went.
I wondered, would her single mother's story of being a gynecologist raising a potty-mouthed child in Delhi be a more interesting one to watch? Actor Natasha Rastogi most certainly could carry it, I'll tell you that!
