Alert - More personal thoughts rather than movie review. First of all i am crazy about watching movies. I have seen more than 1500 Hollywood 800 bollywood and around 100 gujarati movies. I like the movie where i can connect myself to the world of movie. If you put more drama over real life situation i feel disconnected. As a gujarati i have seen gujarati movies when i was young. Most of them were good for just timepass if you have no other option. You can not feel the movies at that time because they were over dramatic and talking about very old culture. However the bollywood was also not different at that time. Apart from 2 % art cinema most of the movies were over drama. I like the old rajshri and Hrishikesh mukherji movies. I started watching Hollywood movies when i was teenager. At that time i have seen dubbed movies. I fell in love with them. Even the fantasy world they create in the movie looks more real than our own local movie world. It took almost 10 years to watch most of the Hindi dubbed movies. I remember the days when i reach DVD store to buy them and out of 200 dvds (approx) i can hardly found 3 or 4 dvds which i have not seen. I used to collect them and 10 years ago i had largest collection of Hindi dubbed movies (over 200 dvds) in my entire circle. I lost that collection now but i have now 300 movies in computer and that too after deleting many of them. Now my English is good (not very good) so i can also see and understand non dubbed movies. In last few years i have seen 300 hundred English movies. This whole details is to just to let you know that i am not unknown to the world cinema.
Now this movie is certainly a milestone in history of gujarati cinema. The best movie according to me is when you can create the real world around your story. Locations are also important. I really felt that the language, characters and situations are really fascinating. I know that may be some people will not understand certain humor (Some typical amdavadi line like "Mara bapa to bau moti note") but i know all these words. Only movie so far where i felt that characters are speaking my language (of course gujarati). I felt amazing to hear some of the lines and words in movie scenes. Must watch movie for every gujarati. Felt bad that movie is more seen on internet over theaters.
