Review by disharma-24131

Umeed

10/10

Flawless series with thought-provoking ideas

Umeed is a 1989 film where Shah Rukh Khan is sent to a village as a banker. The Tv series is a beautiful combination of the atrocities of villagers. From low financial conditions to uninvited diseases, the series has aptly portrayed the typical condition of rural areas.

Plot: Umeed features SRK as a banker who attempts to fit in with rural life, resides within the bank, and seeks to improve people's lives in his own unique way.

Acting: The superstar Shah Rukh Khan as a banker defined his role with perfection. With the attributes of a low middle-class person, his character's silent yet polite questions to the then banking system and social condition are justified. Moreover, a message for social upliftment reminds a lesson to progress toward a future of goodness. The goodness which can bring happiness and empowerment to live life conveniently without any hassles.

Many realistic scenes are heart-touching. At times, this series can also infuse a spirit of motivation to become a change-maker by doing a small bit from your side to transform the rural condition. There are portions in the series which are thoughtful and satirical. That is why it is worth watching.

Not just that, the main character's willpower and determination to work in an isolated rural area convey the perfect message of many honest and hardworking employees of the bank.

In conclusion, do not miss it because it has an element of thought-provoking ideas and arguments which can be watched for many generations to come.
