About This Movie

Daisy (1988) offers a nuanced take on teenage love within the confines of a boarding school in Ooty. The film unfolds slowly, allowing the characters to breathe—Pradeep, the charming troublemaker with a penchant for pranks, and Daisy, the new girl whose innocence challenges his bravado. The atmosphere is rich, with lush visuals capturing the beauty of the hills, contrasting the internal struggles of the characters. The performances feel authentic, especially as Daisy attempts to guide Pradeep away from his aggressive tendencies. It’s not just a romantic tale; it’s about growth, understanding, and the messiness of youth. The pacing can be leisurely, but it serves to immerse one in their world, making the eventual connection feel earned.
