Review - Water

Am back after a long time!!!!

Watched Water over the weekend.... A suggestion before you watch the movie- if you think you are frustrated cos you feel discriminated, pls watch this movie.... It will make you think that you are the luckiest person surviving on this earth and in this country... Based in the early 30's, this movie is about the plight of widows then and also explores the idea of widow remarriage...
Halfway through the movie, you begin to get disoriented because we have been told all through our lives that India had a glorious history etc... but one look at this movie takes you to that medieval era in Indian history which could aptly be termed as 'the Dark Ages' of Indian society...

Performances are outstanding as expected... . Seema Biswas, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Lisa Ray (She looks hot as well!!!), and John Abraham.. all have given good performances that make the movie an all in all good movie which at the end of it makes you sit back and think.... on a lot of things....

Was just wondering, if a movie that got nominated for the Oscars and did not win was so good, how good would the movie that won be??? Leave you to munch on that!!!
