Independent India was not built in a day

What worked:

amazing screenplay and execution; it's hard to not be mesmerized by the storytelling. The makers put strong priority to the dialogues and editing which makes it a powerful movie.
it's a true story and also an important movie; the use of the real life footages and images worked as a surplus positive narrative for the movie . I personally did not know much about him till I watched this movie
great ensemble cast; Paresh Rawal, Benjamin Gilani, Tom Alter and Annu Kapoor brought life to their respective characters

What did not work:

real footages; although the use of footages were meant to enhance the storytelling, the repeated and constant clips of the newspaper article over the pivotal period of the movie can be disturbing and unnecessary at times, unless extremely essential in the narration
run time; the movie is tight and engaging but it would be better if the run time was shorter

Final verdict: Highly recommended
