The sport of Cricket, is cricket a sport??? You better believe it is and this film shows the love people of India have for it. This movie is about a young man with the handicap of not being able to speak or hear, hearing I am not sure of. But having never played cricket before with any team he gets in a playoff for India's National cricket team and makes it, Kind of like Invincible and the Rookie rolled into one. A outstanding movie thought not as well written with characters as Laggan was, but still a 5 star movie, having never been to India and only seeing people of this culture in passing, it makes me wish for the opportunity to me someone from there or travel there in order to meet the few good people left in this world. 5 Stars nothing less, a must see must rental.

One of the better films of late. Although the writing is a little too simplistic, the director surprises with some thoughtful details. Among some good performances by stalwarts and newbies alike, the girl playing the sister (Shweta Prasad?) really shines. The BGM could have been toned down.
