5 Excellent

Your Honor! after watching the movie "PAA", i request the court to hold Mr. Amitabh guilty of the following three charges...

1. Guilty of making the people like me fall in love with him once agaian. i mean, we have to love other actors as well...but the BIG B leaves low room for others in our hearts.

2. Guilty of assuring 300% to snatch away all the awards from the actors who were thinking that they have a chance to win awards this year.

3. Guilty of setting altogether new standards of acting and perfection in performing in the most challenging role for any actor.

The film was a perfect "Masterpiesce". Someting which was beyond expectations and turned out to be one cinematic experience which was different from anything else that has ever been seen.

There are no words to praise and compliment the perfection with which The BIG B has performed the role of Auro. He has turned this odd looking character into one of the most lovable characters of all time. Auro makes us smile, cry and adore his innocent intellignece. Not once do you see the grandeur of Mr. Bachchan's Personality, yet Auro captivates your heart and mind. This character easily qualifies to be referred as a legendary portrayal for all the times to come.

I cant speak enough in the praise of Mr. Amitabh and his Auro avatar, and this one character was enough to make this movie a delightful experience. But luckily, there is so much more in the film to praise about. Abhishek and Vidya Balan provide the perfect support through their controlled performances. Both of them fit like a gem in their roles. Auro's grandma and his relationship with her is another point to cherish.

Auro's friends are adorable and the scenes in school are treat to watch.

The script...The screenplay and the dialogues are spot on. R. Balki shows the excellence of his vision and dispalys it to perfection in the film. All marks to him for the treatment he has given to all the characters. with a central character like that of Auro, there were a lot of chances for other characters to be over-shadowed and there was a huge capacity of this movie to be preachy and over-melodramatic. But one must compliment Balki for avoiding any of this to happen. the end product is an adorable view into the life of a child who is suffering from a rare genetic disorder and his sweet little world. The climax is extremely beautiful...the high point...one of the strongest climaxes in recent times.

The film is for everyone...everyone who is a parent...everyone who has a parent...and everyone who wants to be a parent.

Overall..."Paa" is a gem of a movie. A rare cinematic experience...shining with examplary perfromace by Big B and excellent performances by everyone else. Not to be missed at all.
