Mitu Patgiri

I am aware that five fingers of a hand are not equal and neither would every audience's feeling towards a movie. I have never written movie reviews till date and do not plan on doing so for anyone to look at but this time (the only time probably) I would like to pen down my thoughts (while my eyes are still numb) about this beautiful adaptation of the original (which no doubt had an equal effect on me) movie made which I was made when I was just 4 years and happened to see some 10 years back. I have nothing to say about the story, acting, mistakes, errors that I could find or will find but I would just like to share an emotion (one of many) that I felt this time while watching this adaptation. I became a Father 2 years back and always thought that the time when my offspring would come to this world someone would come out from the operation theatre and say "Congratulations! You have become a Father" but that did not happen as no one came to say those words (maybe that's not always the case for night deliveries or whatever, which I am not aware of). This movie made me feel what that feeling might have been when the Amir's son is introduced to him for the very first time as his son. The underlying meaning that I want to mention here is that this movie reached me and passed my heart to just shake it enough to let the brain react in a way that my eyes should drizzle which cannot happen if the movie is not well made to make you so. And there are definitely parts of the movie which does not match with the original in terms of story but do make you realize the humanity we all should posses or have left. I just watched it today thinking it would be an absurd stupidity made of the original but the fact is that it is equally touching as the original and should not be so discriminated to receive a poor rating. Its available on Netflix and if someone is still planning on seeing the movie (for people who likes to feel a movie and not just watch it for the sake of watching) they should really do.
