    Inspirational and satire film

    Narrates real experiences of a poor girl. The girl is rising from struggles in her life. The direction work of Rahul Bose is appreciative also acted very well. Film portraits racism against girls. Film also says about child marriage and consequences. Friendship, family, and public responsibilities all are highlighted in the movie very well.

    Beautiful film - Technically sound, lovely storytelling

    Saw this film today. Here's the thing about this film. I loved it. It made me laugh and cry. It was a TRUE story of absolute grit. Well edited, very beautifully carved. Each character is nicely drawn. Well cast. The story builds at a beautiful pace - neither too fast, nor too slow.

    Some movies take you on a journey. This is one of those movies. Go on this journey. Its worth every second.

    The cinematography is great. This is that rare film that has technical excellence and great story telling. Its a life time favorite.

    Poorna

    Poorna the movie is based on the true story of # Poorna Malavath of Pakala village from Nizamabad district of Telangana. She is the youngest mountaineer to have summited Mount Everest at 13 years and 11 months accompanied by Sandhana Palli Anand Kumar of Khammam. It is typically a story of a poor village girl, who dreams and aspires in a way normal children do but is largely burdened by her penury life circumstances. Poorna played by #Aditi Inamdar in her debut film, has portrayed the character with an air of innocence that touches your heart. The portrayal of a Herculean task that this tiny and timid girl sets for herself and accomplishes, against the innumerable odds is no mean feat! For a beginner, she has nailed it! Poorna's cousin Priya, played by #S.Mariya, who is supposed to be her friend, emotional anchor and motivator in the film, justifies the role. #Rahul Bose in his production and directional capacity coupled with his character in the movie of Dr.R S Praveen kumar who is Poorna's mentor and facilitator has done a remarkable job! Bose has succeeded in driving the audience to take cognizance of the stark realities of how the free education organizations run in the country. The movie also points to a solution to deal with this by the way of empathetic and responsible rulers taking over their betterment! Bose has handled the topic of children and their secret aspirations with intensity, proving that each child is unique in their own way. Based on their individual passion and skill, and if motivated and handled properly, these Children can be both sculptors and "Masters'' of their own destiny. The script (but for the exception of the inclusion of Telugu sentences at unexpected time and places), is also well supported by characters played by Dhritiman Chatterji, Heeba Shah and Gyanendra Tripathi. All in all, it's a simple and straightforward story which is surely worth a view for all aspirants who wish to scale & summit mountains that are tall, snow capped and almost every time in 'wuthering heights'. For the rest of us, an emotionally touching and lovely viewing experience. Image may contain: one or more people, text and nature

    Inspiring

    This movie is truly inspiring and the one that should be shown in the schools to motivate the young minds of India. I frail girl from a non descriptive village of India becomes the youngest girl in the world to scale the Mount Everest. "Sometime you make choices and sometime choices make you". This movie is all about grit, determination and hard work. Show it to your children for sure.
