Movie is true masterpiece and AB did a great job.
In this life we all facing too many problems , so with money,some with work,some has everything and some has nothing.
But after all of this its our choices that how can we fight against problem or how we just sat back and wait for our death.
I think everyone should watch this movie ,it can change something in you .
Mr. Abhishek Bacchan you did a fantastic role and i think nobody can deserve this role except you.
When anything happens, first of all our families will effect by the issue, some will leave and some will stand by you .
This movie will tell you ,how can a person will survive with least people and least chance of living.

The moment i got to know through an IG post that a movie by Shoojit Sarkar is in theatres, I impulsively decided to watch it. While I read the plot while waiting for the gates to open, I realised that none of my friend would have accompanied me to watch this stuff even if I had asked any of them. Not surprisingly, we were only 4 people in the whole theatre room and the movie started.
The build up of the movie is really intriguing and so perfectly slow that it gives ample room to associate and give your own perspective towards the character and his emotions. First half of the movie speeds up to the interval in no time. You are left with no clue with where the story is going to take you.
But the later half, could have been little more interesting. It may shoot thoughts back in your mind that what is the point of all this that is been shown. When you try to take some lesson out of the whole drama, you realise that its just a fantastic story of a man who have survived extraordinary situations.
Some of the one liners in the movie are the gems that are going to stay with you for few monents giving some extra thoughts. If i try to fit this movie in few words it is a story of persistence of a guy given 100 days to live and it explores the relationship between a patient & his doctor, patient & his nurse, divorced father & his daughter, survivor & the society.
In my opinion the movie is worth a watch as you won't find such movies often in theatres recently.

A universal uplifting story of a father and daughter pair facing unexpected life challenges, the struggle against all odds, the symbiotic passion for life, and finally, the victory of the indomitable human spirit.
Armed with an IIT degree from India, and an MBA from a top US school, dynamic and ruthless young Arjun Sen chases the American dream, while struggling as a single father. Hit by an unexpected potentially life-threatening illness, he fights death across decades on its own terms supported by his daughter portrayed well by Ahilya Bumroo.
Portrayed brilliantly by Abhishek Bachchan at his best who has matured as an actor (like wine) to portray the complex and brilliant real-life Arjun Sen. A story of and for everyone directed by the inimitable Award winning Shoojit Sorcar who has given us excellent heart-tugging movies like Piku, Pink, and Gulabo Sitabo.

Arjun, a man diagnosed with a terminal disease decides never to lose hope and goes against all odds to live an optimistic life.
Another human touch from Shoojit Sircar. This movie can reinvigorate our basic human instincts in this busy and competitive world. Even if we are stuck in the never-ending rat race or threatened by the darkness of our minds, even if our lives get limited, we can still make it no matter what. It is a very soft and touching movie experience that truly resonates.
Shoojit Sircar is really a movie mastermind. This movies are mostly unconventional and don't follow the mainstream cinema but still they feel like mainstream cinema. This choice of subject, his casting choice, and his style of filmmaking, everything shows how absurdly talented he is as a filmmaker. I really loved all of his films but, after watching this movie "I want to talk", it feels like this movie lies somewhere between "Piku" and "October" where "Piku" talks about love for family, "October" talks about affection and empathy for someone you know, "I want to talk" talks about love for yourself. I guess it is now an unofficial trilogy by Shoojit Sircar. "Piku", "October", and "I want to talk".
All of the actors nailed their roles. Abhishek Bachchan gave one of the best performances of his career so far. Ahilya Bamroo appeared for the first time on the big screen, but she still gave her best. Johnny Lever also gave such a brilliant performance, breaking the stereotype. I really hope he keeps on doing such different roles that are out of his comfort zone.
This movie is filled with so many messages such as the competitive corporate sector, the effects of separation on children and shortness of life. In every sense, this movie is going to help you a lot in becoming a better person.

Abhishek Bachan starrer and directed by Shoojit Sircar, inspired from the real life story of Arjun Sen, an NRI senior position marketing professional who is running the materialistic self centred ambitious race to Success, suddenly is tripped and dragged down to ground, to stop and look at Life as a limited God given precious gift which he may lose very soon. This brings out a different side to his character which now values life and all the people around. Struggling to connect with his young around 6 years old daughter who has a strangled relationship with her Dad, because of the Divorced situation and he very rarely being available because of his Career. Arjun, the character played by Abhishek so brilliantly keeps you smiling because of his this wonderful transition and coping up with some life threatening 20 surgeries, with so true emotions of humbleness and in the same time some kind of unwavering Resilience which he gathers, even when he has just few but strong reasons to Survive. You always don't need a massy self glorifying movie, we do need this kind of Life encouraging true to the Heart movies, which make you Love life & near ones more.
