A thoroughly complete story

This is quite a surprise! I had only read the synopsis which talked about the about the cross-dressing part (no spoilers here) and thought maybe it would be a run-of-the-mill, light hearted story..it was on my to-watch list for months and months..... to my surprise this is a very well written, crafted and executed complete story. No ends left dangling as such.
It starts off with a focused scope on a small family, that you think, okay this is just about them...and then before you know it, the story begins to expand. It expands itself so quietly and cunningly that before you know it, you are immersed into a whole universe. I love that it isn't just not only black and white. The way it went from talking about just 3 people living their lives and the story takes a step back and makes you realise the that they are a very important cog that makes this world go around. The characters progress satisfactorily, each has their own backdrop, told succinctly. Each character gets the screen time to share their story on stage, their hows and whys are shared clearly and you feel for everyone of them, laugh and shed tears with them, get angry at them...wonderful acting by everyone, the senior actors expressions in their eyes, the youthful charm of the young leads and how their characters develop as they face the unfolding secrets in their lives . The way the ending of the dram is picturised, you are left with the thought that somewhere, somehow their lives are still continuing on.
Rewatch value: for sure! Not the whole thing but some beautiful and heart touching moments of family relationships, of friendships. It is hilarious how a ML can be so "pretty"
