It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

I enjoyed the movie but instead of jumping in the human faeces, he could have climbed the wall inside the public toilet. Apart from this, i enjoyed the flow of the movie.

I think this was a good movie. The drama was intense and the actors were talented. Even if "indian" types of movies are not my favourite, this movie was pretty interesting. Jamal is going through a lot of sad and kind of dangerous moments as a child but he is also a lucky person when he is a 18 years old teenager. He also found the true love since he was a poor kid. The luck knocks at his door exactly when he needed the most The subject of the movie is very exciting and the actors perform the characters very well. This movie is a 7 because it is not my type of movie but that does not mean I totally did not liked it. My opinion is that the movie should be seen with friends or family because it is very hard to see alone due to certain scenes
