WATER
-Deepa Mehta


Nominated to the academy awards......................should be good. But you always have exceptions, isn't it??thats what i asked when 'paheli' got nominated!!
This movie is not like 'Paheli'......

It has a nice story background of how widows suffer after the death of their husbands leading a detached life set during the british rule in 1930's. The story revolves around this small girl "chuyia" who becomes a widow at the age of 8 (not sure) and is sent to widow's ashram to lead a detached life. The story is about what happens to her as she starts living in the ashram. The movie has a studded starcast- "Seema Biswas, Lisa Ray, Waheeda Rehman, Lisa Ray, Kulbushan Karbhanda,Raghuvir Yadav". looks like John Abraham has put a lot of effort to ruin the movie but i think he's failed in his pursuit!
Just go and watch this movie!! its a little slow.......but its subtle and well directed!
