Astitva

Wonderfully directed with great actors acted. Must watch movie..

Bridges of madison county is a better made version of this story. I felt the ending of this movie was not handled sensitively as they did in the original English movie. This movie is very indianised, if you are a very sensitive person who cries in a movie when hero dies in the end you'll love this movie, On the other hand if you are a fighter in life and think crying is for wimps you may not like the ending.But on the whole it's pretty good subject is well handled for indian conditions. Tabu was good as a caring wife and mother. Everybody acted well.

Even though we feel we have entered a new age, still gender discrimination is seen our family and society. A man can have affairs outside the home, but when the woman commits the same mistake, the things don't hold the same despite the numerous sacrifices she would have made for her family. The film very remarkably raises this issue. I won't say the film heads for a very concrete answer by the end, but still the drama scorches the screen through its issue. Tabbu and Sachin Kedekar are remarkable in their roles. Through the portrayal of the modern society, the film depicts the situations haven't changed in course of time. The film reminded me of Akhir Kyon, released in 1985, in which Smita Patil played the role of a women, who makes her way, after her husband abandons her. The film very effectively portrayed the strength, passion, and patience of womanhood, which comes in "Astitva" too. Only the small disappointments were its slow pace, lack of twists, and the inadequate answers it goes for.

Rating: 2 stars out of 4

The soundtrack the lighting affect are allthe awesome. Movie was good on social issue but I can't digest this that if man is doing all hard to earn bread and butter for their family then women should cheat she should also respect him. Sachin was also very much in love with tabbu she can't say he don't love. But hiding truth was not fair at all.

A Unique and tragic love story with emotions and tragic situations.

Direction of Mahesh Manjrekar is brilliant the way he present the storyline with his unique character arc is unique to watch. Specially the emotions that were shown in the film is truly touches your heart and you can easily got connected with the characters till the end of the film.

Screenplay is good movie doesn't feel bored though it has less characters and a short story but still it feels great to watch and feel for it. Music & Bgm is good with powerful dialogues at the end is definitely make the film top with rest of the films.

TABU is one of the best actress in Hindi film industry. Brilliant performance by her the story revolves around her character but still outstanding performance by her.

Rest of the cast also perform well and suited with their characters.

A must watch film with great direction, story, acting performances and emotional aspects.....
