Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga...

One of the other reviewers, Mohammed, refers to this film as being a 'Hidden Gem', which is a beautiful way to describe it.

It is a well-acted, well-scripted, well thought out film that provides the watcher with everything from pathos to poignancy.

All the major parts are played perfectly; the two brothers, the wife, the father, the loan inspector, the shop keeper, the prospective parents in law, the various friends - there isn't a weak link amongst them, which is unusual with such a large number of characters all with speaking roles.

I think the director, Anshul Sharma, should be very proud of what he's created here, as tackling a social issue such as inflation and how and impacts on the lives of the typical family, isn't always easy to do, and is particularly hard to do in an entertain and watchable way - and that is exactly what this film is.

So if you've had your fill of all-action Masala movies and fancy something a little more thought-provoking well do give this little gem a try.

Superb by all except Zakhir Hussain.

However character of Zakhir Hussain is very unrealistic and killed all the fun.

Big Failure by Writer that such a silly plot was added with stupid plot of Zakhir Hussain. If it was not perfect why to make, others will think and make a good one. God bless the writer and director.

A light hearted comedy on a topic relevant to today's world.

Puttan Pal(played by Sanjay Mishra) is a common man in rural india fed up of inflation rate in the country.To tackle the problem, he takes a loan on his son's name to open a shop and buys the required material for whole year. In reality, the family wants to use the material for their daily household uses. But loan inspector(played by Zakir Hussian) comes as a problem. How will the family save themselves from the inspector is to see.

The storyline is simple. Nothing fancy happens here. The ending can be said to be little Bollywood type but Sanjay Mishra makes it real. Overall, worth watch.

The film was a pleasant break from the usual movie plots.

The film revolves around inflation and all its consequences that hit an ordinary family without letting such a serious topic weigh on the viewer. There was enough humour to make it an enjoyable film.

The only downfall that really ruined the film for me was the part of Gopal, which seemed out of place in such a film. I can understand that perhaps a film based only on inflation could be heavy going and that adding a love story would help it flow more easily. However, the actor himself had no screen presence and his character was only that of a spineless, useless man, too selfish to realize the struggles his family is facing.

Despite all this, I highly recommend giving Saare jahaan se mehnga a watch as it presents a change from many films out there!

The monologue at the end by sanjay mishra is oscar worthy performance.
