One of the Most emotional films i have ever seen.....please watch it at least once.....i am sure you will experience the real meaning of humanity......All star cast is just wonderful.....it left a great impression .....i feel so motivated after seen this....
What a humanity shown......hats off to every crew involved in this.........
I usually never review a film. This is my first review. Bioscopewala is a beautiful film, its a perfect adaptation of Rabindranath Tagore's kabuliwala.
Bioscopewala is the story of Rehmat Khan (Danny Denzongpa), a man uprooted from his homeland. He depends upon his bioscope for livelihood and emotional sustenance. After fleeing from his country, he ends up in Calcutta, where he befriends 5 year old minnie who is of the same age as his own daughter.
Danny Denzongapa is the star of the movie. All the actors bring life to their characters. This movie inhabits the various shades of affection and complexities of human relationship. Watched such a good movie after a long time.
It's extremely frustrating when poor, predictable and lifeless bollywood films keep becoming box office hits whilst films such as these are only seen by a minority.
This a is fantastically directed film which is extremely thought provoking. The character build ups are so well entwined as part of a magical journey. The acting is superb and the plot is magnificent.
It touches upon social issues and historic events and you are left at the edge of your seat to learn more about the lead character.
Unlike many Hindi films, this is not buttered up to the audience to give what the mainstream audience usually wants.
Ditch the mainstream and you will not regret for a moment what is a well crafted, emotional story.

The market is full of fake product. Vendors selling inferior product in new and shiny packaging.... But this happens only occasionally when something good is seen.......great movie...!!!
It's a beautifully crafted emotional drama. I wish Danny Denzongpa never leaves us.
