One of the most beautiful Indian Films
9 April 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Simply beauty. Vaijyanthimala is simply exceptional as a village girl. deals efficiently with human relationship and love. Great movie 10/10 one of the top movies of Indian cinema. I saw a previous comment about excessive length and I disagree with that. it is a well made film with not a single dull moment. The songs are the main strength of the movie are and are all time classics. Ask an Indian about "Dil tadap tadap ke kah raha hai" or "julmi sang aankh lagi" and the first thing in mind is the word madhumati! Like most Indian movies there is a feel good ending that some how dampens the strong emotional affect of the tragedy in the movie. But thats what is the Indian cinema is most known for: it may be tragedy but when you come out of the cinema it feels good.
