Dear Father

If you've seen Paresh Raval's Gujarati Plays and Dramas, you have seen him in his element. In Dear Father, I felt as if I was watching Paresh Raval live.

His acting was fantastic! It is rare that the mettle of a solid screenplay and fantastic acting skills can keep you hinged to your screen for the whole length of a movie. This movie sucks you in from the start, and keeps you there till the last scene.

My respect for Paresh Raval's fantastic acting skills has changed to admiration. This movie is a career defining point for all of its creators and especially the actors and the script writers.

For many years now I have wished Gujarati Cinema to reach this level and deliver this quality of entertainment, awe, thrill and bucketloads of laughter.

I can happily say that with Dear Father, we have finally reached that level!

A standing ovation to all the members of the team. This is a defining moment for Gujarati Cinema and it is wonderful that Paresh Raval is leading the path forward.

Heartwarming, Awesome movie. Paresh Rawal makes you laugh a lot. Amazing performance by whole team.

Good to watch movie with strong and emotional message at the end.

Absolutely Brilliant!

I saw the movie cos of Paresh Rawal and that also two of them but his character as a father in law is not in tune with today's times.

His worries about children coming late sre understandable but to involve the whole world in it might be good comedy but not workable in real life. His views about money might have suited his generation but if children are earning well they have the right to lead a more comfortable life.

Some of his observations about family life are correct but to think that a daughter in law is good only if she cooks is very regressive.

We talk of educating girls and then expect them to forget about their qualifications and enter the kitchen. Why do we expect only the girls to balance their work and home life with the boys not contributing anything to the home except the money.

Tis a very patriarchal view of life especially now when many girls are earning more than their husbands but are still expected to be second rated.

Let their be equality amongst genders for a smoother life cos as they say that the chariot of life runs smoothly only if both the wheels are balanced.

I expected to be crime thriller but it turned out something else. There is a lot of suspense which is maintained throughout the movie. But in the end it became lame as the message that this film wanted to convey wasn't that impactful.

"Dear Father" is a touching Gujarati film that explores the complexities of family relationships, featuring a standout performance by Paresh Rawal.

The movie's strength lies in its excellent concept, which sheds light on aspects of life often overlooked. Through heartfelt storytelling, it prompts viewers to reflect on their own relationships and appreciate the intricacies of family bonds.

The emotional depth of "Dear Father" resonates long after the credits roll, leaving a lasting impact on the audience. It's a testament to the power of Gujarati cinema to deliver meaningful narratives that tug at the heartstrings and provoke introspection.

Overall, "Dear Father" is a must-watch for its compelling storyline, superb performances, and insightful exploration of family dynamics. It stands out as a gem in Gujarati cinema, showcasing the potential of regional films to captivate and inspire audiences.
