Viewers have expressed their views about the movie on Twitter. A person wrote on Twitter, #Homebound is a gut punch. Two friends walk home through a country that keeps failing them, and yet, Ghaywan finds beauty in their bruised hope. Sparse, haunting performances. Frames heavy with truth. A story that lingers like dust on skin. A film you feel, you carry @ghaywan.” Another viewer wrote, “Watching #HOMEBOUND really made me reflect on my privilege in this country. Covid affected all of us so differently,The working class faced the toughest battles while people like me were relatively protected. Watch it when you can,It leaves a knot in your throat.”
Overall, the Homebound movie is poignant, deeply moving and quietly devastating. Its stark realism strips you down, confronts your privilege, and leaves behind a tenderness that stays. The performances of Ishaan and Vishal Jethwa are brilliant. It is one of the years finest films. The movie is inspired by a 2020 New York Times essay by journalist Basharat Peer that captured a striking moment during India’s COVID lockdown.
