This is a fantastic adaptation of Dr. Kashinath Singh's satire "Kashi Ka Assi". Well directed. The performance by each and every actor is very relatable to anyone who is familiar with the tradition Brahmin sections of India. One quote got stuck in my mind - "in past we used to have Bazaar's in our communities, now the each community is struggling to to breathe in the global Bazaar(Marketplace)". This one quote reflects the struggle each Indian is facing in preserving our traditions and fulfilling our aspirations. India is no more a country where its tradition and rituals get patronage of the rich, unless it becomes commercial. This has become a land where a learned priest who follows all the tenets of his religion is poor while a half baked guru peddling nonsense is rich with money and millions of followers.
Sunny Deol, the action hero as we know him, has delivered a perfectly controlled and superb performance. The supporting cast of Sakshi Tanwar, Ravi Kishan and the rest are equally good.
This is a must see, and is sad to see not one review for this movie on IMDb, while the mindless action films like Dabbang get hundreds. This is exactly what this movie is about - the modern Indian does not care about his society, its traditions and culture.
Wish to see more movies like this one.
