I do not understand why this movie recieved so many awards. To base a movie on such famous and well-known tale is cliche. All I saw was a guy who's trying be Al Pacino, lead actress who can not act and NOT likable. (I know she's supposed to be blind, but what's up with Charlie Ch... read more
Nothing short of awesome. This is another outstanding Bollywood film. About a girl who is deaf and blind, and a man who spends his life (40 Years) teaching her so she can become independent. All acting is over the top. More American Directors should watch this and try to match th... read more
Here's a fantastic movie that follows the life of one woman who struggles to fit in with her family and the rest of the world. Despite her being deaf and blind, Michelle had much to overcome even in childhood when all she has ever known was darkness. She had obstacles to overcome... read more

Good movie, good message but it has some flaws. It's like the Bollywood remake of ''The miracle worker (1962)''. Tough Its hard to call it a Bollywood movie... Its language is English. All Hindus in the movie are Christian. And there are no dance scenes !!!

All I can say is wow! It echoes "The Miracle Worker" but only for a moment and then goes on to some wonderful acting and I love the lighting/sets etc
A grt artistic movie, with really artistic performance of Rani. A blind girl by birth with mental problem, lives among her family, her siblings, makes friends, goes to school, gets education and finnaly graduates at the age of 40s, but she does graduate. She does get her degree a... read more
Performances are some of the best in the Indian film industry. A box of tissues needed throughout the movie....you might even use the whole box!
An incredibly sad, but inspirational and beautiful story. It is VERY moving and well done.
At first, I thought it a bit too theatrical, but that tone or style calmed down after about 20 minutes and it became magical.
I am now a fan of Amitabh Bachman. He reminds me very m... read more
Bhansali built a visually beautiful film around the story of "The Miracle Worker." It is hard to imagine such an elegant and satisfying film coming from the Bollywood system. Full Review
