Featured reviews
First, I just recently started to see movies from India (this is my 3rd) but what I do like about the ones I have seen are the strong, emotional performances by the actors to tell their stories, and there are a lot of stories in this one. Not knowing the culture, I don't know if there is any over-acting or excessive drama that you see in many American movies; regardless, this is very much worth seeing. I am a bit shock by the really bad reviews by some people that want to only judge. It's just a movie and an entertaining one at that. It's not propaganda. Forget judging and just enjoy the film.
The movie is masterpiece in all sense
The slum actors are no lesser than the actual trained actors
Each character is beautifully presented
The music of the movie is apt I'm addicted to all the songs
Amitabh bacchan sir is rock solid as always
Nagraj manjule sir did the magic what he always do
Ajay-atul sir matlab kya bole iss jodi k bare me
Matlab ji culture RD Burman aur Kishore kumar ne banaya tha early to say but ajay atul is creating historical music
Im happy that Bollywood is learning and making such a realistic movies and believing in such out of the box ideas
And all haters who hate slums,poor and backwards they definitely gonna be spitting venom here
So just ignore them and go and watch the movie this movie is lifetime experience
Loved it.
The movie starts with typical sports template & first half is fast paced as well as quite hilarious.
Bachchan is just pitch perfect & Kids have done a fab job. Cinematography, BGM & Production values are great.
Manjule's direction is quite good. He wants to touch many points & this doesn't give opportunity to soak into the moment hence emotional scenes lack the impact.
Film is thought provoking & needs to be watched !!!

I don't know why this movie rated so low, because of actors are cast in movie is from non filmy background isn't it?
I really loved the way they portrait every single frame and every single line in it.
Nagraj anna you are the one who showing us teaching us what actual it is, and background music of ajay atul just awesome please go to the theatre and watch this master piece.

Nagraj Manjule asks you to watch his film,We pay for the ticket and watch the film,then he slaps you in the face. From his debut film fandry followed by Sairat now zhund every film of his deals with some kind of social issues in very unconventional way and it creates lasting effect.
In this film the hero is kids who have nothing to lose yet everything to lose and how they struggle to achieve a good life and how it the society keeps failing them.
The camerawork by Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti is a sight to behold The music by Ajay Atul is Great. Amitji did a great job but Nagraj dosent let his off screen persona trouble the film. As i said it before The leading man may be Amitabh Bachchan but the hero is someone else.
In the last shot of film a wall is inbetween airport and slum as flight takes off over it. This one separates the Mumbai airport from another slum area. On the wall there is a warning that sums up the film "Crossing the wall is strictly prohibited"
