The Great Indian Family

The cast of this movie is perfect, all the main and side actors did a great job of playing their character. The storyline itself was interesting and different from most Bollywood movies. The comedic relief was entertaining, production set was well-done, and the songs weren't as bad as it was initially criticized.

However, the acting could have been better with a better script - the dialogues were pretty dramatic and not as well-connected to make the emotions and storyline flow properly. The theatrics and dramatization surrounding religion could've been toned down so that it didn't feel so preach-like but felt relative and grounded for most viewers.

Tone, Script & Story: The life of a traditional Bhajan singer witnesses a havoc when he comes to know he is Muslim by birth. The situation is more intense than it appears because the family in which he has grown is Brahmin family of pundits.

There comes a moment in movie when ace pundit returns and grabs the victim by heart. The victim touches his feet and this my friends was the most epic moment in the movie.

The other epic moment is when ace pundit gradually reveals the truth followed by victim's speech.

Music is average that goes well when we watch the movie. Direction and acting along with cinematic elements ace!

I today remember my first review was on somewhat similar story "Dharam Sankat Mein" and today I have crossed more than 500 reviews.

Final Verdict: The movie highlights the world would be dull with few colors. The multiple colors of Unity in Diversity make it beautiful. Cheers to this movie which celebrates brotherhood between Hindus and Muslims in current times!

The Great Indian Family is a captivating and heartwarming film that beautifully portrays the true essence of Indian values, particularly the emphasis on truth, integrity and religious coexistence. The story unfolds with a powerful message of self-discovery and acceptance, reminding us that love and understanding can transcend any perceived religious differences. The film's clean and righteous ending leaves a lasting impression, emphasizing the importance of upholding Gandhiji's noble teachings. The actors deliver exceptional performances, especially in portraying the inner transformation, showcasing the very difficult change that happens within the heart.

While the film's ending is subtle, predictable and understated, i would have preferred a more emotionally resonant conclusion. A more emotionally charged ending could have further amplified the film's message.

Overall, The Great Indian Family is a must-watch for anyone seeking inspiration and a reaffirmation of the power of truth and human connection.

I will not discuss the message. Depending on what your view of the world is, this can be seen as good or bad messaging. But, it was not original and the pattern is a little redundant. Dharam Sankat Mein had better actors and a tighter script despite a smaller budget.

This movie became too preachy and didn't stop preaching, through out. The topic as sensitive as this, if handled better could have made a difference in the messaging that the makers wanted to propagate.

Acting was not particularly good. Scenes were mostly lost. Humour did not land. Whatever moral lesson the makers wanted to give, was lost.

Few good moments from Manoj Pahwa and Kumud Mishra, but beyond that, the movie did not hit the mark.

The great indian family is a family film directed by vijay krishna acharya.

Vicky kaushal is superb in this loud role. It demanded frim him and he gave it his all. Manushi chillar is decent. Kumud mishra and manoj pahwa are brilliant. None of the other characters get that much space. The cast did good.

The romantic angle of vicky and manushi was forceful and lacked any emotional pull. In some sequences, the film tries to preach instead of showing. The screenplay does lose its steam sometimes. The music is good frankly. There are some catchy songs sung pretty well. Its a good film in my opinion.
