Deepali Parmar Joy Us

Every time I see plastic bangles will be a reminder of this movie. A film transports you but a good film moves and transforms you. That is the power of storytelling you witness in this movie. If you allow yourself to me immersed and open up to entering the world of a young child you will certainly come back changed. This film is well deserving of the many awards it has got and stands in league with the legends of storytellers like Satyajit Ray or Bergman. Thank you Pan.

Reading other reviews of this film once again remind me of the infamous Indian trait - pull each other down. Because we are essentially a low-self worth race. One complains how it’s too PYT and the other compares it to Sylvester Stallone. That’s how much we can do. I invite you to Look at the film through the eyes of the millions who don’t intellectualise but live in the very bylanes of Dongri and dream of small big things every night. That person is who we all are. This film gets my 4 star because it stays true to the spirit of Indian present day culture n reality- when most Indians who have packed up their dreams to look after his family and keep food on the table and dignity on their families faces and above all keep them safe from these very trolls who will hit below the belt even when you hit all the right corners. Our environment makes us who we are or not. This film does what every good Bollywood film has done to restore and fortify the spirit of Indians. Good script, well written n intensely delivered dialogues. Beautiful cinematography. Great cast- not to forget the guest entry of the versatile Sonali Kulkarni and glueing presence of Dr AGASHE and Supriya Pathan…. And Vijay Raaz who’s reinvented himself from comedy to Don roles often…their decades of being on screen itself makes their presence in this movie a solid affair. Ofcourse commendable acting by Paresh Rawal, Farhan Akhtar and even the little girl did a great job under the veteran directorial skills of Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra . (Look out for his cameo) New face Mrunal Pawar has promise . Even the supporting cast has put out a punch of acting. Memorable enough characters who don’t need to brain wash your imagination by being larger than life. Being simply good in their craft works. It didn’t lag anywhere if you are not binge watching too many foreign movies n sitcoms. First take a digital detox to enjoy a truly well made story and allow it to touch your heart. After all that’s the purpose of a good story and not really to IMPRESS you but to help you feel EXPRESSED. If you take the dadar-borivili fast everyday you will feel the pulse of the people of this country and the cry of demanding to be seen for our struggles. This film once again allows the outcast to be seen, to matter to belong. Only that they should have got some facts right like renting an apartment in mumbai does not necessarily cost 80,000 rent and 8 lakh deposit. But then the story would not have gone further. Yes it has touched upon the Hindu-Muslim divide and the scars of terrorism neatly and not overdone it. Yes it shows how an orphan can be reformed. Yes it feels like you and I can continue to dream and fulfill them ourselves. I give one star less because I’d like Bollywood to be more progressive and make more women centric films and OPM plus Farhan can certainly do that. Watch it. Lift your spirit. Build your integrity And remember Hard work and dedication STILL pays. The great music score by SHANKAR EHSAN LOY , heart touching lyrics especially the closing title rap. And like Shah rukh says - Taking to Twitter, Shah Rukh wrote, “Wish my friends @FarOutAkhtar @RakeyshOmMehra the best for their labour of love. I had the privilege to see it a few days back. Extremely fine performances by @SirPareshRawal (wow!) @mohanagashe @mrunal0801 @hussainthelal.” The actor also added that he wishes more movies like Toofaan to be made as he wrote, “My review: we shld all try & make more films like Toofaan. #deepaliparmar #lovemoreart

We, as well-honed film consumers maybe consumed by the formula movies by now. And look for more - a slice of life, perhaps, in the "experience" we take in through our senses, via films. Those sensitive enough to embody watching films as a part of "lived experience" will enjoy this movie - like a work of art, it draws the picture but does not color it with what one should see, hear or feel. Almost like reading a novel, this film allows you to "feel" and let the story move through you as it may wish. It does not "tell" a story, it invokes an experience. oops I'm repeating myself. But that's because the movie has left me still feeling my own sense enough to write this review within 3 minutes of completing it. Albeit I needed to savor watching half and half over 2 sittings with a gap of 3 days between. Hesitation wrapped in old fashioned respect, tentativeness rooted in mundane routine, meanderings and coincidences, sweetness lined with dread, and the raw -real visuals of life as we see it, on streets, in homes, between family and strangers. A welcome relief from too much pseudo "meaning" and "purpose" thrashing about in the world today. I hope you too will feel your being "real" is rewarded by watching this film. Cheers! #Deereviews

Womencentric subjects are less understood because it will change the world For men for the better n no obe wants that in real life. But this movie is made so sensitively n thoughtfully that it seems possible for both men n women to in the real world to look at what's really possible if they step up this game n be drastically n thorough more trye to themselves Its about time we give up practicing toxic masculanity n toxic femininity. Well dome team THAPPAD. Its a slap for all tip wake up.

Now this is a film that pierces through the heart of a nation and speaks to the world. Storytelling, acting, casting, cinematography all have the hallmark of Vishal Bharadwaj. An entertaining film with a heart as passionate and as read as the real citizens of this country who live in the villages and on the borders. To Top it all WOMEN need to see this movie to enjoy how their passionate wiled selves are celebrated by the husbands, the father and the friend , even the village of these 2 sisters. Rare stories like these need to be told more. Dont miss it. Watch it today. Heart touching and dhamaal.

A story who's time has come n now perhaps going...receding...dying... thanks to bad story writing like this. Great Acting, Irafaan muaaha! RIP But seems like the movie was funded by Delhi Politicians or The Education Nexus... The last scene when Raj Batra wakes up and cofesses on the school stage...could have gained applause n supppet from fellow parents but no...theres where we will show our true colours. We will show realoty... none stands by him except his wide. Otherwise its a great movire who's time has come is right here . N wretch it for Irfaan yaay! Amruta singh has still not learnt acting...maybe becuase she didn't attend government school.
