sevdakarababa-71077 I m watching Bollywood movies to understand Hindi language and find out similar words with my language. So that reason i have to watch so many movies. I like the idea of movie but didnt like it script, dialoque and directors job. Some of the acting isnt good tooo much acting makes fake its not natural. i wish they showed more paralel political and social statu changing in India same time.
muvi-fan-73 We always talk about how Shah Jahan built Taj Mahal for his wife Mum Taj Mahal, after her death. Well here we have a role model even Greater: Manjhi – The mountain man. Dashrat manjhi cut down a mountain single handed, day and night, for 22 years… to ensure no one dies due to absence of medical care in given time like his wife. The distance of travel reduced from 70km to 1 km because of his efforts.The movie is great, added elements and acting of Nawazuddin Siddiqui keep our interests pinned. A part from the main story I liked how he made a settlement for marriage of his children. A goof that I was wondering about, Manjhi never appeared in partially grown beard or a light beard. The acting, the elements and the story however, make up for a much better contender.I belong to city mostly, but occasionally we visit village. The seating posture of villagers while having something, the dancer which is not female dressed as female and performing (in mela), politics of irritating, dirty politicians (people in power, here zamindar) is shown well.
namashi_1 Based on the life of the late/great Dashrath Manjhi, widely known as the "Mountain Man", 'Manjhi: The Mountain Man' is A Well-Acted, Well-Made Film, that tells a true-story with heart. It may lack sharpness in totality, but it has a story to tell & the performances overcome the speed breaks of the narrative.'Manjhi: The Mountain Man' Synopsis: After his wife dies on a treacherous mountain, her husband Manjhi, with using only a hammer and a chisel, spends twenty-two years carving a road through the treacherous mountain.Dashrath Manjhi was a man of pure will & courage. Despite losing almost everyone he loved, he stayed true to his mission & achieved what seemed impossible. 'Manjhi: The Mountain Man' salutes his courageous life & also proves that hope & will can actually overcome a Mountain.The biopic is consistently Well-Directed by Ketan Mehta, who's in top-form after a hiatus. The Filmmaker delivers a rousing story, that has its share of disturbing moments, but is eventually, rewarding. Mehta, Anjum Rajabali & Mahendra Jhakar's Screenplay is finely done, although the pace slackens in the second-hour, which honestly, adds up as a dent in the goings-on. A stronger second-hour was needed, for sure! The Dialogue, however, are as real as it can get. Cinematography, Editing & Costume Design are excellent. Background Score & Make-Up deserve a special mention.Performance-Wise: Nawazuddin Siddiqui as Dashrath Manjhi, delivers a natural, heartfelt performance. The supremely talented actor brings a fabulous layer to the powerful person he depicts & never loses away from him. Radhika Apte as Phaguniya, Manjhi's wife, is wonderful. She melts your heart with her innocence. Prashant Narayanan is top-notch, as always. Pankaj Tripathi is fabulously menacing. Tigmanshu Dhulia leaves a strong impression in a cameo. Gaurav Dwivedi is first-rate.On the whole, 'Manjhi: The Mountain Man' scores higher on pluses. Watch It!
Yogesh Raj this movie is very good. and i think only NAWAZUDDIN SIDDIQI can do the role of MANJHI. and he is the soul of this movie. and I want to say thanks to Mr. KETAN MEHTA also. RADHIKA MAM is also looking good in the role of PHAGUNIYA. Tigmanshu Dhulia have also good acting in the role of MUKHIYA. MANJHI the mountain man very real movie. a character who broken the mountain for love. the love for his wife. the love for his villagers. and the love for his village. in the childhood, MANJHI is a normal man such as we. but when he got a painfully war on his mind. he is changed. very changed. and he broke the mountain. and we all should be the mountain man. i think every person to have watch this movie.
