    Class Act of story telling

    Yesterday i got a chance to see this outstanding work of cinema Mukti Bhawan(Hotel salvation) and still I am in that zone where I was while watching this movie I am big fan of realistic drama movies but you hardly get a chance to see this kind of movies in Bollywood, for me this is an excellent film making,what Shubhashish Bhutiani produced here is a class act of direction and story telling,how he portrayed the relationship between father and son is very engaging while watching this movie there was a constant smile on my face and you can only wonder that how can simple things and regular conversation can be a good entertainment, movie is going to teach you a lesson between life and death ,Hollywood movies like menchester by the sea,moonlight,fences and lion are movies which got highly praised by every one this year for there realistic and real life drama and got recognition in Oscars and here Mukti Bhawan is as good as those movies or may be better,last but not least you can not praise cast of this movie enough for there efforts every actor did there very best to make this movie, specially adil hussian and Lalit behl and even other supporting actors did justice to there character gonna watch this movie again in future.

    Simply Brilliant!

    An amazing movie. So simple, yet so complex. It contrast life with death. There's reconciliation of relationships and coming to terms with the finality of life which is the jubilation of death. Brilliant. It speaks volumes without preaching or philosophizing. Kudos to the team. Wonderful acting. We need more of this from Bollywood.

    Salvation

    Mukti Bhawan is a tale of spiritual realisations of a family which is not a fresh subject in Indian cinema although the script along with the cast delivers an impactful one and half hours.

    A journey to achieve a death with dignity

    The young director Shubhashish Bhutiani (26) takes on the hard topic of death with this movie and the conflict that arises once the dilemma between a death in dignity and the everyday life arises.

    An old man feels like his time has come and wants to depart from life in a way, that suits him. This of course causes quite a fuss within the family and the lack of understanding of a few other people is unsettling but understanding as well. Palomi Ghosh who plays the daughter is just stunning! You will probably see more of her very soon.

    The only negative thing I can say about the movie is, that Hindi seems to bee a pretty fast language, so the subtitles are actually not on screen long enough on a few occasions and also the translation does not seem to be spot on. Luckily the director could clarify my questions in the Q&A after the movie and he said that I'm not the first one who asked these. So bare that in mind, that the translation can cause confusion.

    Anyway... Watch out for more from this director!

    Its just a Peaceful cinema, a core indian touch. A great work by subhashis bhutiyani.

    I was trying to watch this film aince time. Finally got chance to watch it. Experience was totally great during whole movie. Became fan of geetanjali kulkarni work from Gullak TVF series and when i saw that she is also part of the movie then desire to watch this movie became strong and who is not a fan of Adil Hussain , everyone likes his work. Every cast member in this movie has worked fantastically.

    The direction of the movie is fantastic, became fan of subhashish bhutiani. The bsaic details which captured inside mukti bhavan and the varanasi captured by Subhashish is truly fantastic. I smiled, i cried this movies leaves really deep on you.

    • Trivia
      The film is based on a real guest house in Varanasi, India called Kashi Labh Mukti Bhavan. Over 14,000 guests have died there since it was established in 1958. The guests, who are mostly elderly and failing in health, are permitted to stay for two weeks. If they have not died by then, they are asked to check out to make room for others waiting. Dying in Varanasi is believed by Hindus to help the soul break out of the endless cycle of birth and death.
