simply marvelous is all i can say about this. a simple story filled with emotions expertly scripted, beautifully directed and toughly enacted. the casting needs to be highly commented upon.

the movie bases on rohan, his very much dominating father and his half brother. all the main roles have been thoughtfully, effectively and brilliantly casted. And the result is splendid and impeccable.

the movie is full of spirit. it gives us hope about the choices we make in life and urges us forward. i was surprised on the fact that bollywood was capable of such attempts.

another great plus to the movie is Ronit Roy who plays the father character. his emotions and attitude flows with the movie. the character itself is a great creation ... one that is negative in most aspects but can be blamed for nothing. Ronit has done an excellent job, he shows great adversities with the moods the character passes through. there are a couple of scenes in which he is drunk and each one is different from the other.

The character of the half brother is a bit complicated one. a child of 7 or 8 .. going through everything and at the same time lacks the maturity to flow out those emotions. thats were Ayan Boradia the thrillingly talented child artist comes in. an amazing performance yet again thats makes you fall for the character and make you emotionally involved as well. he needs a special mention for the simplicity and intelligence he has shown in portraying his part. HATS OFF!!

Another thing is the selection of the industrially populated Jamshedpur as the scenario. that was a brilliant stroke and has added a wave of its own to the movie.

The movie is a bit slow in the start but that is only till you get captured by Motwane's splendid script in a few minutes.

I don want to spill anything on the plot. its for you to watch and enjoy. The script of the movie was actually over by 2005 ... but it took the director 5 yrs to find a producer for this Indian Classic .... now thats an even more depressing thing than watching Kites.

SO WATCH THIS ONE AND FLY OFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
