This film coming from a too much commercialized Bollywood is a pleasant surprise. Well crafted script and good direction and excellent performance from the lead actress makes it a memorable movie. It portrays beautifully the dreams of a widow mother about her only daughter and her fight using limited capabilities to achieve the same. Swara bhasker as mother of a teenager did an excellent job and it is hard to believe that it is her first movie in a lead role. Director has also succeeded in getting the natural performance from theyoung artist's. performance of supporting cast is also good especiallythe head master. With this film Director Ashwini Iyer tripathi can pull a chair and sitin the front row of current Bollywood directors. This film has got a message which is important for north Indian villages. For sure this film will bring tears at least once while watching it.

I'm a teacher by profession and the most common issue found while counseling my students is their loss of interest to study. On such scenario, many-a-times I'd feel if the parents motivates at home our work could be a lot easier . The movie delivers a powerful message of a parent's involvement in instilling learning desire to her child and the entire credit should go to the debutante writer/director, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari. The mother's role played by Swara Bhaskar is the spotlight and her struggle is the replica of many maternal sacrifices of our country. The principal role is one 'principal' cameo that reminds us of some teachers during schooling.

Another mother daughter loving story after Neerja. The love and support from mother is how precious ,it has been shown very beautifully.We can relate a lots of things from our childhood memories.The headmaster acting is just awesome(by Pankaj Tripathy).He has given lots of light moments in film.It is becoming more gripping,when the girl started suspecting her mother.The collector acting is a humble one.We will love to have those officers in our society. The girl Riya Shukla's arrogant acting is a treat to eye.Ratna Pathak is always brilliant in acting.She has carried out her role very nicely.At the last Swara Bhaskar....My god I became Fan of her acting.She is fantastic , flawless, beautiful,very talented....Please go and support these great films..

Pankaj Tripathy acting :- 10/10 Swara Bhaskar acting :- 4/10 Story writing. :- 6/10 Ploting. :- 2/10 That's a good step to inspire n motivate poor children to aspire education n get success in higher posts but to defame the labour or helpers work is hilarious, cheap thinking. No work is small even a cleaning staff is helping in making the country beautiful. Everyone desrves respect but you guys have shown them of no worth.

A film that released in April 2016 back home. Even though I so wanted to view it, could not get the chance then. But then, as they say all good things come to those who wait. Managed to see it recently. Revolving around a mother-daughter duo, this simple story has taken on itself the job of answering so many questions that we face in our very own lives and seldom challenge ourselves to find the answers to. Swara-BhaskarThe ever talented #SwaraBhaskar plays a single mother, uneducated and someone who moves earth and skies to make ends meet. A sweet girl called Riya Shukla plays her 10th Class daughter. For every parent, their child is always the dearest to them. Then why does this very child become an irritant at times, with the passing years? Why do we lose our cool every now and then, with the same child we were swooning about? The film has tried to identify and portray this transition and maybe also provide answers to the viewers. Personally, I feel there is a very thin line which defines the relation. And on crossing the same its no more a parent and child relationship. It becomes a relationship between two human beings. And along with that comes jealousy, competition, opposition and One-upmanship. Sounds bad right? Dwelve within to discover where you stand. No one comes clean, maybe not even me. But the answer lies in sticking behind the line, on your side. And its only through your experience and wisdom, can you possibly identify it. Its a great story of a mother challenging her own self to change her daughter's destiny. A journey of not just change, but also self-discovery. A journey of endless possibilities which are awaiting to be tapped by those who dare and those who try. Amazing portrayal by all. Swara is a great performer, as always. Supported aptly by Riya, who herself has done a fantastic job. Very natural. And then we have the talented Ratna Pathak Shah and Pankaj Tripathi. The film packages various emotions from your childhood days (best recalled by those who did schooling in 1970s and 1980s). Found shades from my nostalgic past to enliven my thoughts and emotions. Great job Ahwiny Iyer Tiwari! Loved the movie and will look forward to more gems from your side in the future. View it. Get the DVD home and see how easily the message transcends across generations.

I am upset with myself to rate this movie as 7. This could have got 9 but direction and poor performance by the leading actress bulled the rating down. Nevertheless it's a much watch for teens and grown ups alike. The story revolves around a house maid (Chanda played by Swara) and her daughter (Apu played by Ria) who has convinced herself that she will grow up to be a maid too. Chanda knows potential of her daughter and want her to take studies seriously to make something good of herself in future. As Apu is distracted Chanda herself joins school and challenges Apu. It's nice to see struggle of a single mother to make her daughter serious about her life. It was debut for Ashwini as a director. Nice effort, but could have been better. At times the relationship between the maid and Dr Ratna is shown too casual. The set up at Chanda's house does not go well with the surroundings. Camera could have been used better to highlight surroundings to give dramatic effect to the situation. Finally Swara Bhaskar single handedly pulls the rating down. She sometimes speaks in village accent and at times speaks in her original Delhi accent. Her make up and look does not suit her role. She was a bad choice for this character role. It's still a good story and a nice break from the star studded dumb Bollywood movies.
