Hope Aur Hum

Absolutely fantastic movie. Everybody acts well ... casting is great and this one will refresh you ... Yes almost a fairy tale ... but why not ?

Thank you Sudip Bandyopadhyay & Dear Nasseruddin Shah ...

If Sudip Bandyopadhyay's Hope Aur Hum was any more simple, I would be looking at a plain piece of paper for 100 minutes. That is the type of calmness and whiteness that the makers concoct in this family drama that talks about aging in general. Naseeruddin Shah plays a grandfather who is in love and respect with his WWII-era German photocopying machine so much that it is housed in a room big enough to accommodate an Indian politician's ego. The rest of the family has a problem with it is not something that he pays attention to unless he realizes one day that old is not always gold. What prevents Hope Aur Hum from becoming dull with this lackluster story arc is the other characters played with finesse by Sonali Kulkarni and Naveen Kasturia to name a few. Ignore the acting performances of the two kid artistes and you will complete watching this film in a much more light mood. It has some great conversations that you can relate with and that will put a smile on our face. Hope Aur Hum is a bonafide feel good movie and one that might stay with you for a few days. Which is, let's agree, not very rare in the Hindi indie scene.

It touches your thoughts and leave a lesson of life .

Nice movie to watch on a lazy day. But need patience to enjoy it. It has something for every generation to connect with. Direction is brilliant, acting by all is very convincing. Very nice movie to enjoy on a rainy day.

The thing is I like these kind of movies a lot where the director show the outside shots more than inside ones. These kind of movies are those ones which you can watch any time with any one, be it with your family, kids or friends.

These days when people are used to listen to fast noisy music and bad shots, but these types of movies are real gift to people who like clean and simple movies.

Everybody acted well, nice job by director and every person contributed. Watch it! Enjoy the simplicity
