A romantic dramedy where Salma navigates modern life, heartbreak, and independence. When she finds herself single again, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and unexpected romance.

Single Salma

Times of India

It’s 2025, and singledom continues to be one of society’s biggest talking points – especially in small towns. Set in Lucknow, Single Salma tells the story of a woman whose identity is defined not by her academic brilliance, her engineering job, or her ability to run her household, but by her marital status.
Director Nachiket Samant, along with writers Mudassar Aziz, Amina Khan, and Ravi Kumar, crafts a simple slice-of-life drama about a woman in her 30s for whom being single becomes the centre of everyone’s concern. Her entire family depends on her, often disregarding her personal dreams. Her mother, however, is obsessed with getting her married and even makes Salma swear by the Quran to agree. The search for a groom begins, and as a matchmaker bluntly says, “Iss umar mein ladka nahi, aadmi milega,” setting the tone for the kind of choices Salma must make in her quest for companionship.
Enter Sikander (Shreyas Talpade), a loud, flashy yet good-hearted man who knows Salma is way out of his league. His endearing honesty gradually wins her over. Just when things seem settled, Salma gets the chance to travel to London for two months of work training, and that’s when her perspective begins to shift.
The story doesn’t break new ground. We’ve seen similar narratives in many films before (e.g.) Queen, where small-town characters find self-discovery through travel. Single Salma plays it safe and stays painfully simple, almost to a fault. It’s predictable, even unadventurous, but does manage a few heartfelt and humorous moments rooted in everyday life. The writers try to inject new turns but the film leans into preachiness towards the end. Still, its small-town authenticity and charming performances hold it together.
Huma Qureshi shines as Salma portraying her conflict between duty and self-worth with quiet grace. Shreyas Talpade is delightful as Sikander, a gaudy yet sincere suitor who brings both comedy and compassion. Sunny Singh fits well as Meet, the free-spirited London guide, though his character feels a bit too familiar. Among the supporting cast, Navni Parihar as Salma’s senior colleague Mrs. Shrivastav and Nidhi Singh as Salma’s outspoken best friend add much-needed perspective and energy. Sohail Sen’s music, however, is easily forgettable.
Overall, Single Salma is a sincere attempt that manages to make its point even if it’s more preachy than powerful. It’s a sweet, well-intentioned film that makes its point, just without much spark or surprise.
