Very Nice Movie

I happened to see this movie by luck on one of the TV channel on Cable TV. A very good movie i could not see full movie especially the start and the end of the movie. so was eager to know the end of the movie searched for the movie details and was able to know the end of the movie.

A very true story which is happening to many old age especially single parents like father or mother. we very frequently visit oldage home in Navi Mumbai with one of the NGO called Fandry foundation. All we could found during our visit was they don't need money or anything they just need somebody should sit with them talk to them listen their sorrows happiness and talk to them for some time. We entertain them by singing songs play some instruments, play cards or indoor games with them its real fun for them.

I like the approach of (Rajit Kapur) Sunil in the movie he was touched and finally decided to adopt one of his fathers roommate.

I hope people take lesson from this and adopts father or mother from such oldage homes and these oldage home becomes empty.

after all we need somebody old at home to guide us teach us and scold us.

thanking you
