नदिया के पार

Wonderful Scenes. All the scenes are so real, will refresh your childhood and hometown memories.

As Sachin Tendulkar is loved by 3 different generations ; Sachin Pilgaonkar and Sadhana SIngh's "Nadiyan ke Paar" is definitely Loved by my Grandfather, Father as well as My generation's peoples. It's been 42 long Years in 2024 ; still I'm in love with this movie from every aspects. The Cinematography of Rural India in 80s' with conservative mindsets among villagers were crystal clear in this movie which gives us realism about that contemporary India. You will definitely fall in Love with Gunja + Chandan's Jodi because of their innocence and beautiful portrayal of their characters on screen. I'm still amazed to know that it was the debut movie of 'Sadhna Singh'. I mean the way she played her role as a beautiful village girl was definitely appealing to our eyes and we fell in love with her character instantaneously.

The runtime of this movie is around 2hr30Min which is edited pretty well I'll say, because at that time period filmmakers doesn't care much about runtimes and average runtimes of such stories could have been upto 3hrs. But here's a little negative point that they rushed the climax very fast. They could have taken more 2-3Min to showcase the entire dilemma and emotions of each characters, that could have been more feel good factors for the today's audiences. But anyway! Audiences of that era accepted it and made it an all time cult classic with blockbuster in numbers. Songs of this movie are still feel refreshing in my generation especially 'Kaun disha mein leke Chala' & 'Jogi Ji Waah' are still in my Car Music playlist.

Overall a beautiful Cinema with hell lot of emotions. I was literally crying while watching this movie. Definitely gonna recommend this to everyone as it's a Family Friendly movie with no vulgarity like today's time. 9 Out of 10 Stars will be the rating from my side for it.. It's a Must Watch Movie for sure!

Director Bimal Roy in Do Bigha Zamin gave a vivid picture of poverty , hardship and desperation in rural India and you will see the happiness, family enjoyment and prosperity in Nadiya ke Paar. Director Govinda Moonis created a masterpiece of a film in Nadiya Ke Paar. The scenes from a family household in rural India, their daily chores, their lives in the village, the wedding ceremony, the holi festival have been masterfully picturised in this family tale so well that you would not like to miss a minute of this grandiose display of filmmaking. I have seen to more movies with the same story line, B.R. Chopra's Gumrah and more recent Hum Apko Hain Kaun but out of the three Nadiya is the best of all three. While the other two are more story oriented, Nadiya Ke Paar is a story of the Indian village life. The actors Sachin and Sadhana Singh gave a superb performance in their respective roles along with all the other major players in the movie. The gradual evolution of love between Gunja ( Sadhana Singh ) and Chandan ( Sachin ) from a stormy first encounter on the river bank is just so wonderful to watch. The music is enchanting specially the one in the bullock cart and the holi song and dance. I have seen this movie a few times and will likely see it many more times in future. Once you start seeing this movie you cannot stop. This is not a movie but the story of Indian village life where the acting, the dialogues, the scenes and music keeps you glued to the screen hoping it never ends.

I belong to north UP and this movie is a true mirror showing culture of north UP to the rest of India. But this is not only one reason that I am praising this movie. This movie is really outstanding in every aspect...This cult classic is a good lesson to now a days bhojpuri dialect movies which are showing only vulgarity. This movie touches every cultural aspect of north india specially rural areas. Once my mother told that how this movie runs continuously for five years in a cinema theatre in Allahabad.

Sachin once again rocks as Chandan after "geet gaata chal" & "ankhiyon ke jharokhon se"...being a Mumbai boy, yet seems absolutely from north UP....actress Sadhna originally belongs to Varanasi and this movie shooted in Jaunpur...so she was best suited as Gunja and she did well enough...rest of the characters did justice to their roles.

And music...exceptionally brilliant...all songs are cult classic now...specially "kaun disha me"...so overall a must watch movie for every one and in my top five favourite movie...a big salute to rajshee...

This is a very good movie. 10 year it remake was also made name of that movie is hum aapke Hain Kaun.
