Maa Ka Doodh

Before watching this film I didn't think that dairy was a product that harmed animals in the making. Oh my gosh were my eyes opened!! It makes so much sense to me now, but I just did not connect the dots before. A female cow has to give birth in order to produce milk. Therefore she must be impregnated year after year to keep producing. This is done forcefully by humans only two months after she has given birth time after time after time, and she lives in a state of chronic exploitation through pregnancy, birth and milking, over and over and over again. She is grief stricken every time her baby is taken away from her at birth and it's milk is stolen from her until she is impregnated again and the cycle continues. The male calves are killed, being viewed as useless to humanity. So much more to see in this film that is completely eye-opening! Please, if you do nothing else this year, see this film. 👍🏼

Normally I don't watch animal rights documentaries because they upset me and make me feel angry and helpless. I usually reason that anyway I know what's happening, so why subject myself to that energy again?

But somehow I made an exception for Maa ka Doodh after reading a friend's review about it. I'm so glad I watched it!

At first I thought I'd start a bit and stop if it's overwhelming, but OMG they've done such an excellent job of presenting everything! I just went all the way through it.

I'm really impressed at the research and the holistic way of showing how dairy just doesn't make any sense at all for - health, animals, environment, spirituality, or national security.

Instead of only pointing out the issues, the documentary provides hope and solutions too.

A lot of vegetarians believe they're not causing any harm. But the truth is dairy is a lot more cruel and harmful than meat.

I feel like everyone who watches this documentary with an open mind cannot help seeing the truth. The information is too compelling to ignore.

There are some painful, difficult to watch scenes. But no gratuitous gore. Only short clips that are enough to make a point.

A well made documentary highlighting the horrors of dairy industry in the context of India. It clears a lot of doubts and misconceptions people had about milk in India.

Not only does it cover the ethical perspective, but it also covers other perspectives such as religion and health. It also covers alternatives to milk. It is well thought out and organised into different parts.

Ahimsa (i.e. Non-violence) is an integral part of many Indian religions, but majority who follow the principles of ahimsa are unaware of the cruelty and violence in the dairy industry. The connection between beef and milk is well hidden from the public. Thanks to documentaries like this, it is now easier to communicate about the horrors of the dairy industry.

It is transforming the way people look at milk and making them empathetic!

This film in no way force's viewers to go Vegan, however going vegan is what is expected from anyone who think or claim to care about animals.

Though there may be a legal way, yet there's no ethical way to harm an animal!

Although we have all been raised to believe that using animals for food is natural and necessary, through this film I have discovered that there is a much happier and healthier way to live! Think about this: we humans are also animals and ALL animals want to live and have the capacity to suffer. When I decided to opt out of the cruel practices of using animals without regard to their needs, my life actually became better! I highly recommend that you watch this film and find another way to support yourselves, in a way that benefits ALL who are involved, regardless of what "species" they may belong to.

This film is a masterpiece made by a Dr. From victims perspective after thoroughly studying facts and figure's.

What A well Researched movie including all the aspects of like- Historical, cultural, Spiritual Health and Climate change. This movie helps you understand your relationship with food and how it is produced.

You can't miss watching this film. The way it discover the truth of Dairy industry and present to the Audience is amazing. Very Minimal use of graphic footage yet so impactful.

I liked the cultural and Religious aspects of Milk and Ghee as these are closely related to our religious practices, The exploitation from Religious text gave me the fresh perspective to understand.

I am so happy that I watched this film.
