While We Watched documentary has been 'leaked' on YouTube. I guess Since the makers were officially unable to release/find takers in the country, this was perhaps the best way to introduce it to the public. It's nicely made. the whole narration accompanied by ominous sounding music creates tension and suspense as if a calamity has struck or about to happen .. the Story of the lone fighter , a crusader of justice, a journalist with highest standards of morality out there battling the powerful state and his own people, facing criticism, trolling and life threat in course of his "duty" is all very inspiring & distrubing too. It reminded us of those troubling times before 2019 general elections.. and those prophetic words of Ravish that this "new India" full of hate and lies will only grow into a bigger monstor.. But the documentary also drags a lot.. and raises serious questions on Ravish himself : his unnecessary stubbornness, his failure as a leader of his team and his refusal to work within the system.. by criticising his own fraternity or being extremely pessimistic or cynical, he alienated from him the same fraternity and even his own loyal audiences to the extent that he put his career and family in danger. But then tough persons and leaders and crusaders are made of a different metal

Good plot.. rushed to complete. Poor execution

Kabir Khan catches the spirit of cricket just right. Even though the journey of the 1983 world cup is well known for nearly 40 years now.. the film captures the team's inner turmoils, the fight to stay on, the deep emotion being experienced by the then team, players pretty nicely. It makes you laugh and cry at the right moments. Inspiring music .. good watch.

Kapoor and sharma have made a mess of it. Could have been more compelling watch. There is no attention to small or finer details like 1998 did not have more than 3, 4 news channels, mobile phones were far and few.. no neta wore colorful clothes.. finance secretary is shown moving around like a common man, stealing bills!!!?? It's silly. Huma does a good job. Though
