    Amusing

    I just stumbled upon this title while browsing various channels on television .even though it was marathi channel and i didn't understood the language the acting done by chaitanya kid was flabbergasting the cinematography, background music and the symbolism made me stick till the end . There was no need for me to understand the language and i was i able to completely understand the plot. The movies would have been a cult classic if it was a little fast paced.

    An unforgettable journey for "Love"

    A beautiful movie with splendid views of Vainganga river.Amazing performance special recognition for Shrinivas Pokale as Chetya. Feel the bond between mother and son relationship beyond placenta. Every single personal that show in movie justify the local language and accents of Bhandara District. Shot at remote location Mundri of Bhandara District Vidharbha Region of Maharashtra. Another masterpiece from Nagraj Manjule production house Aatpat Production.

    Excellent as usual from Nagraj Manjule

    I don't know why it took me so long to watch this movie even though I always had wanted to.

    If you've known Marathi cinema and the kind of work Nagraj Manjule has done in this past, you'll know what a gem of a movie this is even only by watching the trailer.

    The character of Chaitanya has been very well portrayed and played by the child actor. All actors in the movie have done a great job of keeping it simple to accurately depict rural Indian life (Rural life in Maharshtra)

    The emotions the child goes through is almost like a complex work of art and full marks to the director for it.

    The length of the movie could however be slightly smaller. A must watch for every Marathi cinema lover.

    This should be an Oscar nominee

    Fantastic movie to watch. Its kept very simple and the story is presented in a very simple way. Some scenes with the village background are very pleasant to the eyes. It shows the true picture of Indian villages and how people live their life over there. The movie is centered around the kid who does a great unbelievable job with his acting. Story is very realistic. Looking at the movie it gives me the content and direction which you mostly see with Oscar winning movies.

    Kind of maturity such a child has is mishandled.

    Right to the point..! What happens to his grand parent (& calf) because of his actions, his behavior after that appears unacceptable. Taking that in mind it is a script handled on dual terms.

    Other than that, a good encounter.
