Marathi movies off late does little or no homework on its makeup or costumes. This is one such movie where the production values are kept. The authenticity of the characters are well maintained. Kudos to the cinematographer for his frames. The concept and the overall treatment needs to be lauded. A movie which can be used as a learning tool for all those new comers. A well made movie!!!

Two brothers make every attempt to taste a slice of pizza and kids excellent acting. Make film interesting.

Loved the acting of the small kids. It looks realistic of people who stay in Dharavi slum and how they manage the poverty.

Little exaggerated, but a very good movie giving a strong message to the society especially rich class. It is an adaptation of the Tamil movie titled Kaakkaa Muttai (2014)
