Ndtv movies: Manjhi review
Director and co-screenwriter ketan mehata brings the stranger-than-fiction true story of mountain man dasharath manjhi to the big screen with aid of dollops of drama.
This approach, which liberally draws upon the Bollywood narrative idiom in structuring a tale rooted in harsh reallity, might mak Manjhi – The mountain man more accessible to a wider audiance.
Hindustan times: Manjhi review
Manjhi is also one of the most touching and inspiring love stories in Bollywood. Married in childhood, Dasharath and Faguniya hardly spent four-five years together before the dies. The bond that the duo develops during that short period can be clearly seen as the reason behind the 22-years old long struggle.
Times of India : Manjhi review
The film starts with a monologue between a man , Dashrath(Nawaz) and a mountain.
Nawazuddin siddiqui strains every sinew, and remains consistensly watchable despite the shift in tone. But even he cannot make the film soar
What could have been a bland and boring representation of true life story . Turns good on signature dialogue shandar, zabardast and Zindabad.This inspiring tale is appealing and glad brilliantly executed. Manjhi is like India’s Thor
Bollywood hungama: manjhi review
Manjhi the mountain is good film but will appeal mainly to the nawazuddin’s fan. However the film have potential to growth the word of mouth.
