Shastry Viruddh Shastry

Acting of the son wasn't convincing, he was not able to convey his frustration and anger. He is angry in one scene and very next, he is singing a song. You needed someone stronger there against paresh rawal to play that scene. He challenges his father in one scene and is begging him in the next, very stupid scene.

The plot was good, story was good. Courtroom scenes are good and logical with good appeals from both side. Both side lawyers have played good role.

In the middle of all this, movie tries to talk about social issues like grandparents being parents for their grandchildren in India and US, which does not makes sense and jumps out of nowhere.

Movie could have been much better if it explained the son father chemistry properly and with some insights.

If you hadn't watched original bengali movie 'Posto' then this is your time to watch one of the must watch movies about family bonding and relationship centered around a small child who is heart of all.

The story narration and script is one of the best I have come across and the acting by various actors is cherry on the top.

Movie has plenty of emotional areas with touch of joy,happiness,sadness which will make you feel the same .

The movie is completely centered around a family and will have too much resemblance to our day to day life and activities.

I would like to give 7.5 stars to this movie and is recommended must watch.

What started as a great, relatable family drama, turned out to be a farce towards the end of the film by the filmmakers. The film showed the grandfather to be a manipulative man, who harmed and killed his first son, turned the second son into a sissy who could not stand upto his father and then kidnapped his grandchild to alleviate his own guilt at age 70 and fulfil his empty life and sadness. The filmmakers did a disservice to the child yaman by having the kidnapped child choose between his own parents and the grandparents, and end the film by having the child be in the company of the manipulative grandfather. You di not send a child to a criminal. Period. Its totally unfair fir a child to be used as a replacement.

Story of a legal battle between grandfather and the father to claim custody of a child when parents decide to shift overseas. Expected it to be more intense n more emotional but it was quite a okayish drama. Highlights struggle of urban working parents to look after their child. Definitely could have been more better. But worth a one time watch provided you like very slow family story. My ratings 5/10!

There are many an instance where the court has granted custody of a minor to grandparents over parents and this possibility, in a nutshell, sums up the premise of Shastry Virudhh Shastry on Netflix. Though I believe there's no replacement for parents' love, here the inability of the parents to take full control of their lives comes with a dollop of logic. That's where Bengali directors Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy score. Amidst a bunch of mindless, logicless stories, this film shines like pure diamond. It's quick to create the modern way of living on reel and sucks you into the problems that come with it. I don't blame the set of parents at all as I know the stressful lives we lead nowadays, but I don't see any problem in the grandparents too wanting to stay with their grandson. We have to understand that everyone has a role to play in bringing up a child. And ultimately, he should not feel deprived.
