shubhamsahu001 This is a best movie of Aamir Khan. This will inspire the women's.
razaqzafar Very nice movie, must watch. Aamir Khan made a master piece.
SnoopyStyle Mahavir Singh Phogat is a former Indian national champion wrestler. With no support from the government, he failed to get an international gold medal for his country but hoped to be redeemed by a son. He is disillusioned after getting four daughters and no sons. Even the Gods have turned against him. Then neighborhood parents complain that Mahavir's daughters Geeta and Babita had beaten up their boys. He is inspired to train them for girls' wrestling.This is based on the real family of wrestlers. As soon as he had the first daughter, it seems obvious where this is going. For an hour, this is a formulaic underdog sports movie. At that point, my main complaints are that it uses way too many montages and I thought cutting the girls' hair is a step too far. It follows the formula well and the characters are appealing. It's a solid sports movie. Then the movie keeps going and going. The darn thing is almost three hours and unlike other Bollywood movies, there are no long song and dance sequences. The story takes another step and the relationships get deeper. There is a fight between father and daughter that is tense and emotional. It takes the movie to a higher level. Even the hair has a nice payoff later on. The wrestling at the end is compelling. This is one of the better movies from Bollywood.
russellcheww I watched this with my girlfriend on a lazy afternoon. We were looking for random movies, and went with this just for a laugh. From the beginning to the end, we were kept entertained, and had many a laughter and jokes to share. My girlfriend's from China whilst I am from Singapore, but the context was still all so endearing. I believe any viewers would be able to get the humour and heartwarming story behind it all. I usually hate the word heartwarming as most movies of that genre disgust me. But this was a pleasant kind. The actor and actresses had so much chemistry and were stellar! The action was not Michael Bay certified but definitely kept me going "WHOAAA DAYUMM!" Definitely worth your time. The only reason I did not give it a 10/10 overall was because I felt that the older actresses did not portray the same feelings as their respective child actors, although most people would fail to notice!
