One of the few movies, i desperately wanted to be a "happy ending"

The movie tells story about a doctor(Pankaj Kapur), who after a long year of painful research, successful in developing a Vaccine for Leprosy. What follows after that is his struggle and fight to the bureaucracy and disapproval happening in medical society.

Nothing much to say about Pankaj Kapur,Shabana Azmi and Irrfan Khan, as it is a well established fact that they are marvelous actors. Other performances are also good.

The thing about movie that makes it wonderful that it makes u sympathize with the character(the doctor) and attach yourself to the problem he faces in this bureaucratic system.

Brilliant acting and excellent handling of the subject.

an amazing film. i remember seeing it when i was in class 7 i think and this film has just stuck with me ever since. powerful performances by Pankaj Kapoor and Shabana Azmi. the film tells the story of a doctor and what he faces while he tries find a cure for leprosy. and his struggle which begins after he has successfully invented such a vaccine. a very true to life account of an ordinary doctor who achieved something extra ordinary but failed to get his due credit. the film leaves the viewer sympathizing and wondering as to how many people and how many brilliant works have just passed us by unnoticed and unappreciated. an absolute must watch for the acting talent on display. the subject has been handled very well. all in all an excellent film.

A moving and beautifully made film that captures the corruption in the Indian System

"Ek Doctor Ki Maut" is an extremely engaging and well made film by Tapan Sinha that showcases how the jealousy and negligence on the part of some people can really lead to a real setback for mankind.

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!

Excellent movie

This is a truly outstanding movie based on a real life story.Pankaj Kapur adds such passion to the character of the Doctor who spends 10 years of his life coming out with a vaccine against leprosy.In the process he totally ignores his wife Shabana azmi(again a great performance) and she is close to abandoning him.When finally he achieves the breakthrough he finds he has a bigger fight on his hands against the corrupt and lazy govt and scientific community.He gets no support from even his best friend a successful doctor(Vijayendra ghatge) due to jealousy.Though Vijayendra's wife played by deepa sahi sympathizes with Pankaj.Again a very subtle and good performance by Deepa Sahi. The climax forms the remaining story.Pankaj Kapur is definitely a great actor who somehow has not achieved by recognition he deserves.And this movie I think his best performance.

one of the best

I think the other reviewers have said what I wanted to say already.

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.

Anecdotes
The 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.
