    The reality of India & yet a topic we don't care about

    Well made film showing the realities of basic human rights. The kid has out performed everyone and all actors doen a great job. The topic which needs a lot more attention and is very real, films like these should be tax free verses an article 370. While Hindus shout so much about others it's about time to look into their own deeply rooted caste system. It's a must watch, don't want to be a spoiler alert. If you don't just empty entertainment this film is not for you cause it will touch your heart and may make you want to access your humanity. I highly recommend it. Education & its state in india is a serious concern and it captures it well.

    First time i cried

    I appreciate this Director who have courage to create this type movie. I think about those people who lived before 20-30 years before even they do not have right to study. These type movies should be appreciate but sadly i have to say this type movies people do not want to watch they only to watch only ' Animal ' 'Kabir Singh' . This is the reason why we didn't achieve oscar award for Indian movie. Please don't comment on my POV but search on google we won award for music etc but not for a movie yet . Even Korean movie Parasite got the Oscar. Filmaker should have right to show _____ 😞😞😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕

    Great storyline and something good to watch in this world of masala movies.

    Well as always a movie with Sanjay Mishra hits different. Very touching movie I would say some might even cry so well done on that directors. But the obvious aproach was what I deducted one star for. Movie is based on 2023 and head master even has a smartphone but the storyline goes like it's in early 2000 of India. A mature approach would have better as of 2023 scenario lower caste has their own candidates and govt workers. Either you should have made it as early 2000 India movie or make a modernised version and show what is the current scenario where even having own candidates and govt workers upper caste are interfering etc. Over all a very gud movie felt really fresh and could see the creativity and hardwork that has been put into it. Just that time jumble was but off otherwise it's 10 out of 10. Hope to see more such movies in future rather than those spy universe etc. Indian cinema should make more such movies. Great acting by all the cast. And casting was also perfect. No more words to say if your reading this and please watch it once it won't disappoint you.
