Sharmajee Ki Beti is Tahira Kashyap's directorial debut, available on Prime Video, that celebrates women's identities without disparaging men. The film tells the stories of five women, all sharing the last name Sharma, as they navigate societal norms and personal challenges. While it aims to empower women and emphasize equality, the narrative feels familiar, echoing themes seen in other Hindi films like Kiran Rao's *Laapataa Ladies*. The movie, despite its potential, often falters before finding its rhythm, making the journey somewhat uneven.

The central characters include Jyoti Sharma, a career-driven woman facing resentment from her daughter; Kiran Sharma, a homemaker unappreciated by her family; and Tanvi Sharma, a cricket enthusiast pressured to conform to traditional femininity by her boyfriend. Through these characters, the film highlights that women aren't superhuman, they struggle to balance professional and personal lives, and homemakers deserve more recognition. The film effectively communicates its message through relatable characters and their everyday struggles, yet it takes time to unfold these narratives engagingly.

Despite its heartwarming moments and a talented cast, *Sharmajee Ki Beti* struggles with pacing and fully exploring its themes. Vanshika Taparia shines as the teenage Swati, capturing the insecurities about body image, while Divya Dutta delivers many of the film’s best lines. However, the nearly two-hour runtime and underwritten scenes hinder the film's impact. The film stands out for not demonizing men; instead, it portrays supportive partners. Overall, the film is a mix of relatable perspectives and missed opportunities, needing better dialogue and pacing to truly resonate with its audience.
