Bubble Gum

Well i am speechless.... Nothing to say about this movie. Really splendid work done, it makes me nostalgic each and every time i watched it.

Really i cried, when i watched this movie first time.

I sometimes feels the characters in the movie are same like me or they are pretty close to my heart.

Why these type of movies are not getting so much public support or advertisement.

Hats Off to the Team..... Thank u.. and pl do make some more movies like this.

"Bubble Gum" looks more like a TV Movie without big stars, sets, posh costumes, or lavish song numbers. What it does is a plain story telling, based on a nice subject. It's a teenage drama dealing with the anger, frustration,bonding, attraction to opposite sex that starts to grow during teenage and gives a nice message to the parents on understanding the changes and aspirations that take place in them. Such a nice theme somewhat is wrapped in a very plain film that lacks much of shades and situations in drama. There is not much to endear in the story nor the story looks very well narrated, which makes the film forgettable. Despite the low profile and the plainness of the film, the performances of the children and Sachin Khadekar and Tanvi Azmi as parents are commendable.

Rating: 1 star out of 4

Happy valentines day. Thankyou !!!

Let me just start out by saying THANK YOU Bollywood for making a great film in this age of one trash after another.

With that being said, I wouldn't be lying if I said everyone who grew up in the 80s or 90s or even before that would find something to relate to in this movie. It has so many nostalgic moments, from chewing bubblegum to street fights to love letters to secretive romance.

I could really relate to a lot of things in the movie so I was really attached to many details in it. This was also made possible with the aid of great writing and excellent acting.

This is NOT a romantic movie, so don't go in there expecting lots of romance, romantic dialogues, lines, etc. Its a journey of a young boy from feeling abandoned and being naive to being mature and feeling loved. If you liked "Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander", you will love this movie. Give it a shot!

First of all, don't be mislead by the title. I too was under the impression that this would be a sugarfluff teen romance but trust me when I say that most of you won't want to miss this.

It's been a long time since I've watched an authentic slice of life film (from Hindi cinema) that really captures what it was like to be a teenager. Most of the film is seen through 14 year old Vedant's point of view. Sanjivan Lal's film is very detailed and he pretty much captures every essence and innocence of what it was like growing up in a Southeast Asian community in the 80s. The references to pop-culture of that time are entertaining.

The art direction, costumes, makeup and sets really capture the feeling of the 80s before the digital age (when there wasn't an abundance of mobile phones, computers and compact discs). There's some fine camera-work and editing. It's not overtly stylized but just good enough to not distract the viewer from the story.

As well-made as it is on the technical side, the strongest highlight of 'Bubble Gum' is how the director and writer bring their vision to screen and the actors' performances. I'm glad to see Tanvi Azmi get fine roles in great movies again. She is one criminally underrated actress and here she is excellent as the loving mother trying to maintain the balance in the family. Sachin Khedekar is dependable as usual and is nothing short of wonderful.

The two newcomers, Delzad Hiwale and Sohail Lakhani, who play brothers Vedant and Vidhur, deserve top most praise. They play their parts with full conviction delivering such natural performances that at times, it's easy to forget that you're watching actors. I hope this unpredictable world of cinema gives these two young actors the opportunity to have a shining career and that they continue to do fine work.

'Bubble Gum' holds nostalgic value for me. I can really relate to the story. Sanjivan Lal's sincerity shines. I wish more movies like this gained enough recognition and continue to be made. By the end I was wearing a great big smile on my face. I couldn't recommend this precious little gem enough and I'll surely be revisiting it soon.
