I Want to Talk

Right off the bat, one thing is undeniable. The film is quite slow paced. The movie mimics life it, doesn't boast of extraordinary vantage point views or sudden twists or out of the blue drama where things seem magical. We see a life flowing in colours though faint and hard to appreciate through every shade in the spectrum. The movie gives a pretty normalistic view of the life in the eyes of the protagonist and how things are unfair yet beatable through sheer will.

This movie has its own audience and it's not for the people who seek story with twists and turns with fantastical elements which are non-lifelike.

But this is for the people who are pushed to their boundaries of the personal comfort zone and are seeking some relief in the silence between the lines which are loud for the right audience.

When everyone is running towards making larger-than-life movies, a film like this comes as a breath of fresh air. This is a trademark Shoojit Sircar movie, and if you are a fan of his work, you're going to embrace this one with love too.

The story revolves around a divorced, middle-aged marketing professional who is diagnosed with cancer. His relentless will to survive and his dynamic relationship with his daughter are the core focus of this film.

Although the movie deals with a serious subject, its treatment is light-hearted and doesn't emotionally exhaust the audience. The characters are so endearing that you find yourself falling in love with each one of them. The camaraderie between the father and daughter is organically built, and their complex relationship is portrayed beautifully. Dialogues by Ritesh Shah are another highlight, adding a touch of humor and relatability to the narrative.

Abhishek Bachchan has literally breathed life into the character. He delivers an outstanding performance in this unique role, truly making it his own. Ahilya Bamroo (older version) as the daughter is equally remarkable, ensuring her performance stays with you long after the credits roll. The young girl who plays the younger version of the daughter also does a commendable job. Johny Lever's special appearance provides light chuckles, while the other supporting artists fit their roles perfectly too.

The background score and music blend seamlessly with the narrative, enhancing the film's emotional depth. If the movie reminds you of Piku, you're not alone-it carries a similar essence, though this one leans more towards serious storytelling with less comedy. The most beautiful part of the movie is its use of silence, which communicates more effectively than words. Shoojit Sircar's brilliance shines through as he refrains from spoon-feeding the audience, allowing viewers to interpret and connect with the story on their own.

Shoojit Sircar has done it again, and this is a work of art you shouldn't miss. With many English dialogues, the film might not appeal to the masses, but it will resonate brilliantly with urban audiences. Watch it right away.

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.

Shoojit remains a master of his craft, in creating characters and telling a story, the setting in USA is apt (later learned it was based on true story) and understated feel gives time to enjoy ,and soak the story ....There is no preachy mess...deserves a rewatch and will evoke many memories and true conversations ..... Abhishek does full justice and the girl who played is daughter is equally good...seeing on the big screen adds to its effect and also having slightly less audience somehow added to the silence and sounds ....it will also have a good international run ...Shoojit , Abhishek and team deserve kudos.

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.
