, Krish Parekh; Director: Bhavna Talwar; Ratings: **** To miss this movie on the true meaning of religion is a crime for any cineaste. How much poorer one would be if one allowed this penetrating masterpiece to pass by without a standing ovation! Straddling this world of colossal pain and redemption, as defined by the individual's desires and emotions, is Pundit Chaturvedi (Pankaj Kapur).

Bole To: A beautiful film for all you movie buffs! REVIEW: If you�re a true film buff and love watching genuinely well made films, this one�s for you. To start with, this film�s got breathtaking visuals- the scenes seem to be right off a canvas! STORY: The film revolves around the lives of a devoted Benarasi pandit, Pandit Ram Narayan Chaturvedi (Pankaj Kapoor) and his family. Ok, that was a long sentence, but it�s not as complicated as it sounds. BOTTOMLINE: Don�t go for it if you want to coochie-coo with your darling....more
