Cactus Pears story (no spoilers)
Anand, a man in his thirties who lives in the city, is required to observe a 10-day mourning period for his father in the rugged countryside of western India. During those days he forms a tender bond with a local farmer who is struggling to stay unmarried. As the mourning period comes to an end and Anand must return to his city life, he has to decide what will happen to a relationship that began under difficult circumstances. The film is a Marathi-language drama with a romantic thread, running 114 minutes.
Should you watch Cactus Pears?
Watch it for
- Rohan Kanawade directs this Marathi drama, his feature built around a quiet rural mourning ritual rather than city life.
- Bhushaan Manoj plays Anand and Suraaj Suman plays Balya, the local farmer whose struggle to stay unmarried drives the central bond.
- The film runs 114 minutes and stays with one compressed 10-day period, so the romance and the drama unfold at a deliberate, intimate pace.

Skip it if

Our verdict
Cactus Pears is a small, specific Marathi drama that uses a 10-day mourning period to look at how quickly a bond can form and how hard it is to leave it behind. Rohan Kanawade keeps the focus on Anand and Balya, with Bhushaan Manoj and Suraaj Suman carrying the quiet tension. It is not a loud film, but the 114-minute runtime and the A certificate signal that it is aimed at patient adult viewers.
