Saw #Guilty @ #Netflix. A topical college story centred on rape, the #Metoo movement and the surrounding Twitter frenzy, legal process & media hype. Good cast; largely gripping film @advani_kiara is a revelation with her edgy heartfelt performance, voice, wacky looks & styling
Harneet Singh @Harneetsin
Please watch #GuiltyOnNetflix. A stirring tale told with rage which captures the zeitgeist of #metoo #patriarchy & #timesup quite well. Was especially moved by the poetry & dialogues. Kiara Advani delivers a career defining performance. Kudos to Dharma to push this film.

Must watch Guilty on @NetflixIndia : just what needs to change - mind set .. how #metoo failed in some cases - how women empowerment must move beyond just a women day @advani_kiara is brilliant
Haricharan Pudipeddi @pudiharicharan
Really liked #GuiltyOnNetflix. @advani_kiara is fabulous in this important film on #MeToo movement. It tackles the rape culture head on and emphasizes on the importance of consent, without getting too dramatic. Slightly flawed but makes a very important point about speaking up.

What a lovely, arresting, powerhouse performance by @advani_kiara in #Guilty. Certainly her career best. @ruchinarain18's take on #MeToo is a must watch. It tells us how we as a society are failing victims and are guilty of fostering perpetrators at various levels.
Pragya Kapoor @pragyakapoor_
#Guilty talks about sexual harassment, a serious issue plaguing our society in such an impactful way. This is one film that you all just have to watch. Congratulations #RuchiNarain, @advani_kiara @Akansharanjan @taher07 you have done a fab job!
