I remember watching this when I was a kid and being really emotional, but seeing the movie again after growing up, I don’t think I can see this film with same perspective when I was younger. It’s a really relatable thing seeing the parents, teachers and comparison riding on your back. The way Ishaan is basically helpless and is being thrashed on literally shows how parent’s genuinely treat children without know what they’re going through. The acting is extremely good and I don’t think I’ve cried seeing films but this one is different. I literally got emotional and felt like my heart was aching when ishaans parents were scolding him. Its best seeing this when you’re older because it has nostalgia of our childhood and the pressure of today.
It’s an overall masterpiece that I would never get tired of, deserves an Oscar.
