Yeh Mera India Trailers

Every night we go home & turn on the news,to find headlines full of atrocities & we wonder how this world keeps moving in spite of so much multi-layered bias which is the root cause of all this. YMI is an attempt to explore the truth behind these headlines. These stories deal with racial,communal,caste,gender,lingual & immigrant bias that plaque the today's society and the outcome... Startling!!!!

I saw this movie long after it actually released, had to watch it on DVD. But, this movie has got the power to hold you till the end. All the characters are perfectly casted and well portrayed. All the credits to N.Chandra for making a superb effort. He is a brilliant director and a narrator. My warm regards to you Sir. Talk about Anupam khers character or Rajpal yadav's simple role of a person coming to Mumbai in search of some work, All characters were very real and the movie was far better in the approach than typical Hindi movies. The message of hope was conveyed brilliantly. I would suggest all to get the DVD from the nearest shop and make it a mandatory viewing.

The experience of watching "Yeh Mera India" is pretty much akin to reading the morning newspaper over a cup of tea. The format is divided like the sections of the newspaper dealing with issues that affect our lives in some way or another. It also depicts the various sections/ strata of the society we are living in. Yes, it should be aptly titled as "N. Chandra Times". The narrative format is similar to "Life in a Metro", with every character linked.Without giving away too much about the storyline, simply said Day-1 is an insight into the life in metro, Mumbai and Day-2 is redemption, retrospection and hope. There is everything for everyone and perhaps even more.In terms of performance, everybody is absolutely spot on. There are some heavy-weights and stalwarts in there managing a great ensemble.N. Chandra the director - he is the same who made Ankush, Tezaab and Narasimha and for reason unknown had middle-age crisis resulting in the "lesser-talked-the-better" movies in between. With "Yeh Mera India" he roars and conquers what he had lost. A word of advice, RGV's the forte is underworld, Madhur Bhandarkar - its documentary-style narrative. You should do what you are good at and make this type of movies as your genre.

A handsome effort to showcase the real essence of India above politics, communal ism, plastic world and recently famous regional issues. A must see for a person who loves sensible movies.May be the movie does not have good box office collection or popularity but the it is awesome to see the dramatization. Offcourse bulk of characters are from theaters so comparatively the acting standards are very high. Another attraction of the movie is the punchlines and dialogues delivered by praveen dabas it made the fellow artists speechless... Hats of the N Chandra and i still believe that there are some people who still believe in delivering sensible work rather than commercial nonsense.Cheers readers!!

An exceptional movie. This one surpasses Rang De Basanti and A Wednesday by several aspects. In the beginning th movie gives you a feeling that its going to be another movie with the protagonist call but the portrayal of characters, the acting, background score, all seemed so well balanced, never felt boring even for a minute. As expected actors like Rajat Kapoor, Aupam Kher, Rajpal Yadav were splendid. The best part of the movie was the way the characters get connected to each other and influence each other's lives. Living up to the expectation of the Indian movie tradition, the movie also provides a "Happy Ending" yet without being forced into a Happy Ending scenario. A great work by the director and all the actors who have chipped in great contributions.Good to see exceptional movies coming these days that have raised the standards of Indian movie industry, that is no more tied to Songs, forced romance and melodrama to keep the audience glued to their seats but movies that have conviction and substance.
