Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
aanchaliitd I just happened to come across this movie while browsing on Netflix, but what a brilliant movie! This movie really evokes emotions, rekindles your human side and makes you question your unconscious biases. It's a piece of art. No trashy songs or any such unnecessary distractions, a tightly woven plot, complex, gray characters, beautifully connected together. I am quite disappointed with myself for not paying attention to this movie earlier. I guess our film critics also really need to educate themselves and give more credit to deserving movies like this. The only weak link was the girl who played the call center employee, bad acting! But everyone else was superb, and small things like that can be ignored for a movie with such an excellent screenplay and beautiful intent!
vijaysingh0507 This is the kind of movie that should be highlighted and talked about. The cast does an exceptional job in delivering the message of the director N. Chandra. Movie builds up a plot, which in beginning makes you believe that it is just another movie. It builds a character for every person. It depicts life of a variety of people belonging to different social and religious groups and how their lives get interlinked. Movie delivers a very strong social message. You don't feel bored even for a second. Movie keeps you guessing whats next. One of the best Hindi movie. Must watch and promote.
Kushagra Tiwari I saw this movie long after it actually released, had to watch it on DVD. But, this movie has got the power to hold you till the end. All the characters are perfectly casted and well portrayed. All the credits to N.Chandra for making a superb effort. He is a brilliant director and a narrator. My warm regards to you Sir. Talk about Anupam khers character or Rajpal yadav's simple role of a person coming to Mumbai in search of some work, All characters were very real and the movie was far better in the approach than typical Hindi movies. The message of hope was conveyed brilliantly. I would suggest all to get the DVD from the nearest shop and make it a mandatory viewing.
Atul Gupta Yeh Mera India is Indian 'Crash' (the Oscar winning Hollywood flick). It tackles many major issue of our society- terrorism, Hindu-Muslim hatred, Mumbai's regionalism against Bihari, rich-poor divide, corruption... even traffic jams. But kudos to N.Chandra for impeccable screenplay and direction that the movie stands out as a path-breaking reflection of 'Why India is India?'. The answer of course lies in one word 'Insaniyat' which is not used in even one dialog but is visible in abundance. The first 15 minutes of the film were a serious turn off for me. It shows so much hatred among people that you it gives an impression of yet another movie exploiting these issues. But as the story builds on, you realize how passionately the narrator deals with each character while conveying the message "Bura mazhab nahi, insaan hota hai'. There are umpteen moments in the film where you just can't help the tears floating in your eyes. Casting is another good thing about YMI. There are so many good actors, yet nobody is heavier than the other. Rajat Kapoor, Atul Kulkarni, Anupam Kher, Vijay Raaz, Sarika, Dabaas, Perizaad, Seema Biswas, Purab Kohli, Rajpal Yadav... all have delivered up to the expectation of the story. Though the movie has a few technical glitches and exaggerated sequences, you won't mind them given the journey YMI takes you through. This is a must watch for every Indian. Don't miss it.
