The review title sums up the movie. What if forrest gump was an Indian movie? What events would the protagonist witness and trigger? And if the movie was directed not by spielberg but by wes Anderson and you'll get aatmapamphlet

Good fun movie with lot of dark undersides and jokes. Subtle example of dark humor? Lower caste boy is helping his Brahmin friend with a thorn in the shoe. Both fall down but the Brahmin boy is still interested in the the thorn in his shoe. So many layers in that and a lot of other scenes.

The movie is made such that even of you don't get the dark humor yum still love the movie. True adaption of Forrest Gump.

Happy Thoughts 🙏 This movie will not only create History but also create peace' in Mankind, hat's off to Writer Paresh Mokashi &Director Ashish Bende,Thank to all Team,Great work World will follow Sure , I always belive in oneness all are one,God is always with us without reason you have to be aware that awareness & Acceptence & forgiveness is most powerful quality of God,This Movie showing come together & Growth,Love hasn't any borders, spread love,joy & Happiness for the bestest Life, Every one is unique but comes from one'Soul ,we are one say one save one Sevan thanks

Dhanyvad Sirshreeji 🙏

Aatmapamphlet

It's a Marathi movie but I am writing this in English so that more people understand it and more people watch this movie. It's definitely beyond a language!

A Love letter to the 90s but so much above and beyond nostalgia. Every scene is loaded with meaning and one feels like pausing, rewinding and watching it again. Rather than the typical nationalistic, jingoistic, "in your face"nonsense which sells like hot cakes today this was a breezy, understated movie yet stating so much without actually saying it aloud. There was an underlying innocence not just due to the child actors but throughout the expression of the movie itself and at the same time it was sarcastic and witty. I felt like this should be a compulsory watch for all Indians let alone maharashtrians. Religious and caste discrimination is sadly rampant or rather has increased now and a better film hasn't been made on this topic. What seemingly is a coming-of-age story of the protagonist is actually the coming of age story of our nation. Even the way they chose to end it was so clever, they could have gone down the harsh realistic route but instead they chose utopia which may look like a nicely tied red bow but actually shows the impact every small story can have on a larger scale.

The saddest part was even in a city like Pune the theatre was only half full. We need to encourage regional cinema and brave storytelling as an audience. Please give this movie a chance, it deserves it.

I wish films like 'Aatmapamphlet' got made more. But I guess the dearth of such films are also what makes it special and helps stand out.

A coming-of-age Marathi feature supported by terrific casting and their performances, the writing, the film making, cinematography, editing, production design... (I could go on).

There are more reasons to give @ashishbende's film a chance at the theatres than I can count.

If you're looking for a wholesome story and are keen on taking a trip down memory Lane, this is for you.

For the sake of supporting good cinema, please give it a chance at the theatres.

It requires a theatrical experience.
