As we get entangled in city life, we forget to live our life and divert away from its purpose. Mitti succeeds in showing how one can achieve a goal even in small towns and villages.

Mitti is 8 episode web series that tells the story of Raghav who visits his village after his grandfather passes away. Things turn topy-turvy when he realises that his grandfather owes 15 lakhs to set up farming. Raghav takes up the challenge to pursue his grandfather's dream and he realises his potential and path to self-discovery.

Beautifully directed and superbly acted, Mitti raises several questions for the viewers - Do we need to leave our parents and seek opportunity away from them, letting them live at the behest of others? Do we really need to run a rat race going now where? Do we really need to follow what others are doing or just enjoy what you are best at? It is easier said than done but it takes guts, risk and the right intention to make it big. Mitti also shows that without failure and struggle, you will never know what your heart wants and this is where Mitti scores. It succeeds in taking a realistic approach of what is happening in India - young people exploring tons of opportunities and even nailing it to the core.

Hats off to the director, writer and actors for making us believe that life is best enjoyed when you follow your passion. The web series also brings out the value of Indian tradition and culture.

Movie name - #SitaareZameenPar Genre - #sports / #drama Rating - #Heartwarming 3.5/5 Running in theaters around you

Sometimes we judge people based on their, appearance. But we forget, what lies behind their outlook, is extremely talented and hard-working person who could move the mountain.

Based on Spanish and extremely likable #Champions, Sitare Zameen Par revolves around Gulshan Arora (#AamirKhan) , a short-tempered basketball coach who, after driving drunk into the back of a police car, is allocated to coach 10 Neurodivergent adults as part of community service. Gulshan decides to take up the job and transforms the lives of these supremely talented kids.

From the director of Shubh Mangal Savdhaan, R S Prasanna manages the sensitive subject and characters without making it melodramatic, which makes the film turn out to be light-hearted entertainment with a lastful impact.

Of course there is no scope for romantic songs and dance but this being a Bollywood film, we can ignore it. Rest apart, writing by Divy Nidhi Sharma is sharp and engaging while cinematography and art direction is good.

Coming to the performance, Aamir Khan is back at what he is best at - Acting. He tickles your funny bones and yet handles the emotional scenes with aplomb. However, the soul of the film are those 10 kids who will win your heart.

Overall, if you are looking for mood-uplifting sports drama, Sitare Zameen Par is the right choice. Go for it 👍
