Storyline

'Daana Paani' explore the early days of 1962, when Havildar Mehtaab Singh (Jimmy Sheirgill) is given the honorable responsibility of personally informing the family of a martyred Lance Naik of his wartime demise, and along the way encounters an oppressed young village woman, Basant Kaur (Simmi Chahal). The trials and tribulations of their unexpected attraction sets each on a course of life carrying repercussions for themselves, their families and a once quaint village struggling against the emergence of modern times. Their fate may have determined that they would enter each other's lives, but it seems the actions of those around them decide just how long they can stay together If it's meant to be, It will be .

User Reviews

Emotional, Beautiful, Perfect Acting. A MUST SEE

Almost everything is well placed in the movie. Technically speaking, a wonderful movie with a great story, best songs, fine acting especially by Jimmy Sheirgill, Simi Chahal, Gurpreet Ghuggi, Seema Kaushal, Harby Sangha & Mahabir Bhullar with their THETH Punjabi dialogue delivery. Above all a great performance by Madam Nirmal Rishi, but she had a very little role. Tarsem Jassar also performed well in a cameo appearance. Sorry i'm giving it 9/10, because it was a little short in length. I personally feel that after the song REFUGEE, 10 more minutes should have been added to the movie. Good wishes to director Taran Jagpal & writer Jass Grewal for making a movie as the same level of ANGREJ (2015) & LAHORIYE (2017)..
