After lots of twist and turns, film get over with happy climax, for this you have to see the film. Script : Script was written keeping in mind school teachers living and their work. Writer Rajeev Verma and Neetu Verma has taking care of small small thngs, like how marathi teacher's behaviour should be in tutions and in school. Climax part is interesting, but some fiction sequence could have been made, but many many scenes will make you think many things. Acting : If we talk about the acting then Shabana Azmi has done perfect acting in the character of Marathi teacher, wife and mother. On the other hand, Juhi Chawla is shown a grace of good work. Divya Dutta perfectly played the negative role. Her expressions were like a treat. While Girish Karnad, Samir Soni, the Upasna Singh and Zarina Wahab did tremendous work. Special cameo in the film, Rishi Kapoor, Jackie Shroff has also done a good job in terms of character. Richa Chadha and Arya Babbar could have played the role much better. In their act there was lack of grip because it was difficult to relate to their characters. Music : Film 'Guru Brahma' was always coming on the time, but background score was more appreciated. Why to watch : If you are fan of Shabana Azmi, Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta, if you love grass root films or love simple sroties, then see this movie.
