Dhappa

There was a time in Indian cinema when film like Katha, TV serials like Ados - Pados were made. I still remember them for the portrayal of the neighbors living in a housing colony. They were so real, so believable and so lovable that even remembering these programs immediately warms my heart.

This same feeling happened to me when I watched the trailer of this film. And it compelled me to watch it.

And my hunch after watching the trailer, proved to be correct. The best thing about this film is the portrayal of the people living in the society. They are very real and lovable. The 14-15 children shown in the film are also very natural. They don't act like a child actor seen in many Indian films but just like real kids. It kept me fully hooked into the film.

Another good thing of this film is the subject. It is very relevant in the atmosphere of hate and divide prevailing today.

My only regret is that this film is made in Marathi language. I wish it can be also done in Hindi.
