wvriend Udaan is one of the best Indian movies I've seen. It is moving, inspiring and engaging. Rohan, the 16 year old is expelled from boarding school and send back to his father who doesn't know how to give love. His former friends, his new little brother and his caring uncle feed the faint sparkle pursuing another life away from home might be possible. As the film is not set in the gutters of India, the story does not become too raw for the western stomach and the focus remains on the story. The movie well deserves a place in the top 250. I won't spoil too much. Go and watch!
terminator3135 Wow! Just finished watching this, and I really don't have anything negative to say. Motwane did an excellent job portraying this "common", realistic situation into a heartfelt, poignant piece of work. Rajat Barmecha exhibited much composure in his role. The emotional maturity that he displayed was exactly the way that I had pictured it to be. As for Ronit Roy, he did a marvelous job playing the role of the autocratic father that doesn't feel any emotion. The background music and song selection added another dimension of deepness and empathy for the viewer to experience. The cinematography and editing was (in my opinion) perfect for the mood that the direction and music created. All the other supporting characters did a wonderful job (especially Rohan's best friend).All in all, Udaan is a must watch for anyone who wants to gain some insight into the harsh realities of some people's lives and the ways that they conquer them!
krishnamoorthiniranjan The movie was totally predictable, Read the IMDb synopsis it says "Expelled from his school, a 16-year old boy returns home to his abusive and oppressive father." and the entire film is just about the abusive father beating up his two children drawn out for a long long long 2 hours.The film starts with the lead character sneaking out of the dormitory with a few friends (who are the rotten apples of the school)to watch a B grade film while smoking cigarettes and they get caught and get suspended.The film ends with the lead character returning back to the bad company (who have now evolved from smoking cigarettes to chasing women) along with his young step brother (poor fellow) and the film makers want you to believe he has ""flown" to a better life.The lead character wants to be a writer and the Hitler dad wants him to take over his factory instead. (So-over used)There are a few scenes where the main character hangs out with these bullies turned friends which seems totally out of place. Who were they? why were they shown? Does nothing to improve the story.The ending was very predictable the name gives it away I knew the end after watching 5 mins of the movie but the ending doesn't give the impression he has flown to a better life thanks to the numerous plot holes .I generally don't watch Bollywood but people said this was a unique movie, totally disappointed and I now have a head ache after watching this awful movie. 1/10
Girish Soni Amazing movie....... Salute to the debuting director Mr. Motwane and refreshing casts. When I was going to watch this movie, I don't have not much more to watch in my laptop and to be specific I have not expected much more out of the movie. One of my friends has recommended me to watch this movie. This movie is about relationships, dreams, friends and family. All the actors in the movie has performed very well and specially Rajat and Ronit has done fantastic job. The whole movie has maturely built with realistic material and the story has beautifully written. I am not good with words but believe me don't ask anyone and just go for it. Its surprisingly good.
