Siddharth Roy

OMG, #SiddharthRoy what a little gem of an uncelebrated film. Watched it on aha and repenting heavily for missing it in the theaters. In recent past i haven't seen a film so deep in philosophy and psychology and yet narrated in the most commercial way. Kudos to the makers, especially to the director for how he could write a compelling story on the thin line of Logics Vs Emotions. I wonder what he must have gone through to write such a story and what he is up to mentally to write so many iconic scenes in the film, which come as a hard slap on the face of hypocrisy. The scenes like grandfather's funeral and the scene with mother in the bedroom are nothing less than eye-openers. It takes deep understanding and courage to write scenes like that and execute equally well on screen . I really don't know about its commercial success. I doubt it, because for me, the majority of the audience would have failed to understand the essence of the film. The brightest part is creating a character like Siddharth Roy which I guess anti-thesis of lord Gautam Buddha and narrating arguments of the logic and emotions in the form of the story. Need to say the climax of the film is something which shook me up and created silence in me for sometime at the end. Coming to the lead actors, they did a phenomenal job. Though the hero gave an exceptional performance and lived the character to the core, somehow i felt the depth of the character is so high and he couldn't shoulder it because of his unknown stature. If any known star would have made a whole lot of difference to the films' commercial outcome, who would have taken the film to the masses. Signing off here and strongly recommending this film to every youngster and also to all the parents to understand so many complex psychological and philosophical arguments in simplest form.
