What a movie!! #Mallesham. Tight focused narrative. Technically brilliant. Breezy music. Humor nicely blended into narrative. With one of the very best casting I have ever seen. Every character just lived it. The super inspiring story of Mallesham springs to life, in this brilliant piece of art! A must watch film. #malleshammovie
Excellent movie that you can watch with complete family. The story is told so beautifully. Each actor is tailor made for the character. Superb acting by everyone. The screenplay, direction excellent. The rural setting, city setting is captured so realistically.
The people speak so affectionately to each other. No show of. Super!!! Wish it was longer and showed the struggle for version 2 and 3 of the machine involving learning coding and micro controllers!! Enjoy the movie
Mallesham is not a movie but a celluloid version of the struggle of a sincere son. Mallesham's struggle for designing a machine to be used to eliminate the physical labor by his mother is a story of struggle, disappointment, determination and learning. He learns electronics even though his academic education is stopped with high school. His struggle to design that machine is a lesson for many. He simply proves that 'strong determination' will lead to ultimate success.
Excellent script. They show the reality very well in the movie. A great tribute to a great man. need more of such movies to inspire and educate people. loved it. a must watch.
I usually try to avoid watching inspirational movies. Not because I don't need motivation, but partly because I don't get motivated via films and I'm not a fan of the inspirational genre. I'm glad I didn't skip Mallesham based on my prior habits.
Having problem solving mindset is an incredible asset. Mallesham has it. His lack of education didn't stop him. Dissent from his parents, friends, relatives, neighbors didn't stop him. Supportive life partner is always a huge plus though. A must watch movie.
