    Amazing !

    Mrugtrushna is a beautiful story of 4 kids and their passionate dream to cross the river. The movie has stunning visuals, a gripping and sweet narrative & soothing songs. Absolutely loved it.

    A Classic Kids film meant for Adults

    Darshan is a friend and hence I can say confidently that what I saw in the movie was something unimaginable. Story of four frineds living besides a river. Their fantasy/dream is to cross the river and explore the land beyond. Each caught in their own web of life, end up pursuing the dream despite multiple obstacles and eventually, like they say in the reels section of Instagram - Wait for the End

    The film is an eye opener, a lovely lesson on what it takes to dream and achieve. Written in a local adivasi dialect, the kids have done a great job at acting headlined by Arya Sagar and Nishma Soni. The innocence is extremely well captured. Brilliant act by Jayesh More, Ragi Jani, Happy Bhavsar.

    Music is where this movie really stands out, especially the title track Nadi ni Pelle Paar Jau by Saurav Moni gives you a Bhupen Hazarika moment...adding to the rustic appeal. Nishith Mehta has done an excellent job here too.

    Equally stunning are the visuals captured by Anil Chandel doing full justice to the locations. The story too is quite unique for our times. Lyrics too bring out the best of the narrative, Tushar Shukla is a veteran at that.

    All in all, it is a nice movie which sets a good pace and leaves us with a lot of thought for the present and the future.

    Don't miss this award winning presentation, Darshan Ashwin Trivedi, good start to a triology, you have set a benchmark that will be interesting to follow up.

    Innocent, heartfelt, beautiful

    Mrugtrushna: The other side of the river is a beautiful, heartfelt film about the power of stories and imagination.

    Without going into spoiler territory, the movie brilliantly captures village life with all its simplicity and complications. Definitely worth a watch.
