I just have to say this films is a top 10 best movies made in India. Too bad these films are largely ignored by Indian masses and most NRI's, who like to watch the no brain entertainers like KKKH, KKKG, DDLJ, Ready, Bodyguard etc..
This is a truly a film India can be proud of and show at international film festivals to western audiences and critics alike.
I wish Indians started to support films like these more and films made by Govind Nihlani, Shyam Benegal etc.. and this this would encourage more production of such movies.
Pankaj Kapoor masterfully portrays Dr. Roy- a doctor/researcher working on the cure of leprosy. As soon as his research is publicized by the newspaper, Dr.Roy begins to be ridiculed and mocked at by fellow doctors. What follows next is Dr.Roy's oppression by the government and authorities and the corruption that prevails in this system.
Apart from this, the film also beautifully explores the relationship between a husband and a wife (again a touching performance by Shabana Azmi) and also that between friends .
Overall, an important film that deserves more recognition than it has got!

¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesThe story is inspired by Subhash Mukhopadhyay. He was a physician from Kolkata, India, who created the world's second and India's first child using in-vitro fertilisation, Durga who was born 67 days after the first IVF baby in United Kingdom. He was harassed by the state government, and not allowed to share his achievements with the international scientific community. Dejected, he committed suicide on 19 June 1981. November 1978. An "expert" committee was appointed by the Government of West Bengal under the medical association to decide over the fate of a convict named Dr. Subhas Mukhopahyay. His charges are, one, he claims to be the architect of first human test tube baby named Durga (3 October 1978). Secondly, he announced the report to the media before being cleared by the Government bureaucrats. Thirdly, he made the impossible possible with few general apparatus and a refrigerator in his small apartment when others cannot even think of despite having expensive resources (in this research Mukhopadhyay was assisted by Sunit Mukherji and S.K. Bhattacharya). Fourth and most important allegation, he never let his head down by the Government Bureaucrats and his straightforwardness always attracted jealousy out of his peers.
- PifiasAt around 1:06:53 and in the next shot at 1:07:01, Boom mic is visible over Dr. Kundu's head.
