The Signature

Mr. Anupam Kher's performance is undoubtedly the pillar of this heartwarming film. His nuanced portrayal of a father grappling with life's challenges is inspiring.

However, the film would not be complete without the roles of Mahima Chaudhry and Ranvir Shorey. Their characters, though supporting, add depth and complexity to the narrative.

Mahima Chaudhry's character, with her unwavering love and support, provides a much-needed counterbalance to the protagonist's struggles. Her performance is filled with warmth and sincerity.

Together, the performances of these three actors create a combination of emotions that resonate deeply with the audience. The film's exploration of family dynamics, love, and resilience is both heartwarming and uplifting. It is a must-watch for anyone seeking a truly wholesome and satisfying cinematic experience.

From the trailer to the poster, this movie screams tragedy, and you need to be in the right mindset to venture into watching it.

The story follows a middle-class man who goes to great lengths to save his wife, who is on life support in the hospital. His relentless struggle to gather money from all possible sources to pay for the hospital bills forms the crux of the story.

This narrative reflects the real-life experiences of millions of people across the nation, allowing it to instantly connect with the audience. It serves as a mirror to society. However, despite the emotionally charged plot and struggles, the film becomes overdone in places, diminishing its impact. The screenplay falters because the emotions are not well-paced; when the same intensity persists from the first frame to the last, viewers may feel emotionally drained rather than devastated. To evoke genuine emotion, a film must pace itself, as constant sadness can wear out the audience.

Anupam Kher delivers a performance of a lifetime, once again proving that he is a top-notch, versatile actor who can seamlessly portray any character. Ranvir Shorey, in just a few scenes, manages to make his presence felt, adding strength to the film. Annu Kapoor, in a smaller role, provides strong support. Mahima Chaudhry shines in her cameo, and it was a delight to see her on screen after a long time. She definitely deserves more roles.

The background music enhances the film's mood, and the poetry used hits deep. Director Gajendra Ahire skillfully uses silence and calmness to communicate deeper nuances, which works in the film's favor.

Be sure to have a box of tissues handy, given the emotional weight of the subject matter. While it may not be a 10/10 film, it tackles a topic that will resonate with viewers. For its performances, subject matter, and sincerity, it certainly deserves your time.

Now streaming on ZEE5.

This movie shows so deep meaning of life when one becomes old. It shows why insurance and money is required at the end of age/life. This movie hitting on heart straight and giving every heartache one can has.. A must watch. Life is all about living and caring about your parents and children. But in the end - the matters most is money you have in your account. That is the only reason remains why one asks you in life and takes care of you. You dont have money, insurance.or property - no one gonna ask you for. Never give your property to anyone until you die. That matters alot in life. Ranveer Shorey's small role is full of life.

When a movie reflects life in a way that makes you retrospect life in general, then one can confidently say that the movie was a must watch.

The story narrates a family's tale where they struggle with the decision of signing the DNR form for the mother. But the twist here is that, only the father, played my Mr. Anupam Kher, is willing to go above and beyond in hopes of saving her.

Mr. Kher's performance shoulders the entire movie with several emotional scenes, where needless to say, he proved his acting competence once again.

Mr. Ranvir Shorey's cameo was an another twist in the story that feels more impactful than a few other more seemingly impactful scenes.

It was nice to see Mahima Chaudhary on the big screen after all these years. I loved the soundtrack, the movie has only one song. But the placement of the same could have been better.

Manoj joshi, Annu Kapoor, and Neena Kulkarni were also good in the film. Overall, the movie serves as a family film (giving the baghban effect, if seen with parents).

Some movies have no fanfare, you do not hear about them, there is no huge publicity, there is no drama and still, they are one of the best movies.

Had no idea that the movie could touch me so strongly. But the story in the movie is a reality.

In fact too real to be shown. Movies are to entertain and inspire and make one forget about the toughness of life.

Nobody makes a movie to show the realities of life. For reality is too serious to be entertaining.

Yet once in a while, some creator has the courage to think beyond money, accolades, box office collections, profit, and the normal.

Such creator is Gajendra Vitthal Ahire and the creators of this movie.

Had renewed my Zee5 subscription to watch the Sabarmati report, which unfortunately after so much hustle failed to impress me. But found this GEM accidently. Had never heard of this movie! But a movie that deeply resonates with many.

A very well-made movie and will form a deep connection with many.

The rating in IMDB does not give it justice. Not all can appreciate a fine piece of art, you need a certain amount of maturity and intellect to appreciate this gem,

Well, this movie kept me in rapt attention all through its duration. Why do good movies have to be this short, and why do the boring ones run till infinity?

Mahima made the movie after the passing of her mother, and one can feel her tears. Something tells me these are not glycerine tears but something that comes out naturally when she thinks of her mum.

Be thankful to God for the beautiful life you have, appreciate each day, and thank Him every day, for we need his goodness and mercy each second of our lives.

Highly recommended.
