I had pretty low expectations going in this movie but boy was I wrong? The acting, direction, screenplay and music was perfect. You feel for the all the characters in the movie. It hit me hard. Do yourself a favour and watch this movie!

A poignant film which touches your heart.. Hassan's journey stays with you. Loved Suraj and Iqbal. Very relatable and relevant.

I have to say I was moved by this film. The sad part is it is real and the way it ends with a new person joining the vicious circle.. Hats off to the entire crew. And maybe this will put a realistic picture in front of people who dream of moving to US for their dreams. It takes a courageous man to follow a dream and a wise man knows when to walk away from it.

Soulful journey of the protagonist straight from the heart. Loved the score and message. Kudos to all who were involved in the making of this project. Must watch for all looking for some content.

A tale of an illegal Restaurant worker who lands in LA to study filmmaking and then lands up being just a little fellow with big ambitions and even bigger problems. With great subtlety they have shown Jama Masjid, Delhi and my goodness such realistic frames of Jama Masjid I have never seen. It takes a courageous man to follow a dream and a wise man knows when to walk away from it. Magical sombre music integration makes the movie more enjoyable. Adil Hussain, Neelima Azim, Suraj Sharma Sweta Tripathi and all others do a good job. But Iqbal Theba steals the show. Jay Ali does good too. Directed by Danish Renzu. Hope deferred can make a man sick, it can even kill. The past, future and the vicious cycle. Every face even though looking same has a different story. Ghar Kab jaoge Babaji... Hits hard. A worthy watch. Slightly touching, slightly grounded and absorbed in reality. Available on Amazon Prime Video.

Cant stop thinking about the ending... how much I related to this film. We have all been there.... this is very real and gritty ... I hope everyone gets a chance to watch this one. 5 stars

This film is about the struggles and challenges faced by overseas workers during their struggle to establish themselves abroad. The story is harsh and real. There are a lot of people who sacrifice a major chunk of their lives to bring some happiness, or even basic necessities to their families. Moving to a totally different country and surviving there is not so easy as regular bollywood movies show.

Beautifully journey on an immigrant who has to choose between his dream and family. Suraj us exceptional and so is Iqbal Theba.
