A wonderful story of 'UP ka Mike Tyson' told by Anurag Kashyap - he stirs hearts with this narrative of poor-family situations; evils in the social systems, specifically the politics around sports (boxing precisely), both at state and national level.
It’s heart wrenching to watch how the powerful deprive the deserving of their basic rights and breeding oppression. It was as if we're still living in the 19th century. What also stands out is the social curse of casteism, a shame inflicted since ages, and not dying down easily... Guess it'll take another century or more cos it’ll need generations to change to really mellow down this muck.
A big longish, but a knockout to say the least, would not spend more time in saying what other reviews have already done.
I strongly believe in the relevance and dire need of this 'change' the movie presents. Would urge that governments should freely promote and allow for screening in schools for bringing about a progressive social change.
