Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on hard work, traditional skills, and overcoming adversity without shoehorning in modern identity politics. Characters develop through merit and effort rather than box-ticking representation. No sign of narrative being sacrificed for ideology, personality and family drive the plot, not identity.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Sui Dhaaga largely respects family values, entrepreneurship, and the dignity of labor. Traditional roles are depicted without satirizing masculinity or undermining cultural heritage. The film is rooted in Indian values, celebrating community and familial duty rather than subverting it.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints are recognized and struggles are largely universal (class, opportunity) rather than framed via modern ideological lenses. No sign of caricatured villains representing tradition. There’s little indication of forced ideological uniformity or villainization of dissent.
