What bugged me about the ending
I really liked that it ended openly, and left everything to the viewers imagination. What I hated was that the screen was just black for like 20-30 seconds, just made me wonder if the black was going to open through Ram's eyes in the hospital, if it would pan to a funeral, etc, or just cut to the credits. It did cut to the credits but after having a blank screen for so long it just irritated me that they couldn't do it sooner.
Maybe I'm just whiny but it was kind of annoying to me.

It was not 20-30 seconds at all. Well maybe it was a little long, but the music started pretty quickly, which I thought was a sign that it ended. If different music played, maybe not, but I thought it was clear that the story ended then. The way the scene was built up, I didn't expect the story to keep going

Wait... Why did it bother you again? You explained what they did, but you didn't explain why it was a problem.
