Indian movies are said to be known for their emotional stories. Yes there are movies like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham that pull on your heartstrings and make grown men reach for tissues, but there are also movies like Zakhm that are genuinely heart-wrenching tales about characters that you connect with.
Zakhm has to be one of the most touching Hindi films I've ever seen. Its a brutally human story about the relationship between a mother and her son. It is a unique and engaging story that will not disappoint fans of good cinema, especially those about the human experience.
The soul of the story lies in the character of Ajay, portrayed as a kid by Kunal Khemu and as an adult by Ajay Devgan. Both actors do a brilliant job of conveying the combination of struggle and patience that defines Ajay's relationship with the world around him. While Khemu's Ajay faces situations that most adults wouldn't be able to cope with, Devgan's Ajay faces the world and its people with a wisdom and love that is sometimes hard to understand. Both actors work to create one of the most complex and captivating characters ever seen on the Indian screen.
At the center of Ajay's world is his mother, a damaged but brave woman. Life has not been too kind to her but her belief in love and salvation is what keeps her going. Pooja Bhatt portrays this character with so much heart and honesty that you can't help but love her as much as Ajay does. The rest of the cast doesn't get much scope to perform but is adequate. Apart from Devgan, Khemu and Bhatt, the other important player is the director Mahesh Bhatt, who directs Zakhm with passion that is hard to ignore. I haven't seen all of his work to say that this is his best, but I will say that it is one of the best that India has come out with.
Although I've given it a 10, Zakhm is not without flaws, mostly having to do with supporting actors who don't quite hit the nail on the head. However, they do nothing to diminish the essence and heart of the story. All I have to say now is: watch it, Zakhm is truly one for the ages.

Okay so Koi Mil Gaya came out during a time when Hrithik Roshan's career was in a nosedive. After its success, everyone talked about how Rakesh Roshan saved Hrithik's career.
Then I watched this movie and all I have to say is that Roshan Sr. should be the one thanking Hrithik. I will, however, give Rakesh Roshan credit for bringing a novel idea to Indian audiences. Science fiction stories are not common in Bollywood, and the director has helped in moving the film industry in a new direction.
Apart from this, the only other asset of Koi Mil Gaya is Hrithik Roshan. He brilliantly plays the part of a mentally disabled man who is a child on the inside. He is able to add layers to the character despite gross oversimplification by the writers. However, as Rohit is slowly cured by Jadoo, Hrithik's performance slides into mediocrity alongside the rest of the movie, mainly because the character ceases to be interesting.
Apart from this the movie has nothing else to offer. The rest of the cast overacts and the story itself is boring and predictable. Its sad when a director can't make a movie about an alien, interesting.
Rakesh Roshan has always been a below average director. Adding a science fiction angle with new special effects (for India) will not make him better. A talented son doesn't make the dad a better director either. We all know that Hrithik is a star but he also has a lot of potential to be an 'actor'. I hope he begins picking better projects both inside and outside his own production house.

Subtlety is rarely seen in Hindi movies. Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara has plenty of it. The humor, the score, the acting and the story, all come together to make this wonderfully understated film. Yet this movie shows so much depth and understanding of human nature that its able to elicit from the viewer, genuine regard for its characters.
A lot of other reviewers have already talked about how excellent this is. So I will only urge you to watch it. The highlight is certainly Anupam Kher's performance which is layered and brilliant. The day that the Indian audience and critics are able to recognize performances and films like these is the day India can once again be proud of its cinematic history.
