Dear Father

If you've seen Paresh Raval's Gujarati Plays and Dramas, you have seen him in his element. In Dear Father, I felt as if I was watching Paresh Raval live.

His acting was fantastic! It is rare that the mettle of a solid screenplay and fantastic acting skills can keep you hinged to your screen for the whole length of a movie. This movie sucks you in from the start, and keeps you there till the last scene.

My respect for Paresh Raval's fantastic acting skills has changed to admiration. This movie is a career defining point for all of its creators and especially the actors and the script writers.

For many years now I have wished Gujarati Cinema to reach this level and deliver this quality of entertainment, awe, thrill and bucketloads of laughter.

I can happily say that with Dear Father, we have finally reached that level!

A standing ovation to all the members of the team. This is a defining moment for Gujarati Cinema and it is wonderful that Paresh Raval is leading the path forward.

Heartwarming, Awesome movie. Paresh Rawal makes you laugh a lot. Amazing performance by whole team.

Good to watch movie with strong and emotional message at the end.

Absolutely Brilliant!

The movie is superbly made and is a mark in Gujarati film industry

Very rare we get to see this kind of movies in Gujarati..the direction was of top level and about acting its the master himself mr pareshbhai..the movies goes in a good pace and from the start it keeps you on toes..the thrill was very exciting along with the climax with a good message

A proud for Gujarati film industry.

I saw the movie cos of Paresh Rawal and that also two of them but his character as a father in law is not in tune with today's times.

His worries about children coming late sre understandable but to involve the whole world in it might be good comedy but not workable in real life. His views about money might have suited his generation but if children are earning well they have the right to lead a more comfortable life.

Some of his observations about family life are correct but to think that a daughter in law is good only if she cooks is very regressive.

We talk of educating girls and then expect them to forget about their qualifications and enter the kitchen. Why do we expect only the girls to balance their work and home life with the boys not contributing anything to the home except the money.

Tis a very patriarchal view of life especially now when many girls are earning more than their husbands but are still expected to be second rated.

Let their be equality amongst genders for a smoother life cos as they say that the chariot of life runs smoothly only if both the wheels are balanced.

Movie is well acted by Paresh Rawal. Movie went bit slow. The father' role is pathetic and some unreal. Anyway in some cases , we can expect such father in real life, however the message from movie is only for Son and Daughter is law, nothing for pathetic father. In current world such father also unacceptable who doesn't respect the Educated Daughter in law. There should be some message for father also, to change his views inline with current world is missing in movie. Anyway It is good and entertaining and specially the dialogue and acting of Paresh Rawal and Mansi Parekh is excellent. One time must watch.
