While the film centers on a gay protagonist navigating a sham marriage for cultural acceptance, the story prioritizes personal relationships and emotional authenticity over identity politics. Characters are nuanced and multifaceted, and narrative tension largely comes from traditional, believable family dynamics rather than heavy-handed messaging.

The film respectfully portrays traditional family expectations and generational gaps without overtly ridiculing or undermining them. While it does spotlight the challenges of tradition versus modernity, it leans more on cultural nuance than on subverting or mocking core institutions.

Alternative perspectives, especially from the protagonist’s parents, are portrayed with empathy and depth. The film avoids simplistic caricatures, instead emphasizing understanding across cultural and generational divides. It doesn't push a uniform modern worldview, allowing room for genuine conflict and reconciliation.
