You seldom come across a film(frm newhere in the world)that stays with you forever.TZP is one of those gems.Before writing nething else I wud like to quote Sudhir Misra,as what he says is exactly what my idea of filmmaking is,he said "Saeed Mirza taught me, you can drown in the quicksand of detail and I keep this very close to me. You are not making a film about details. You are creating an ambience, colour, time, and within that you are telling a story which means something to you, now".TZP,though so subtle & mature in its treatment,is such a powerful film at the core that it blows u away.TZP is beautifully written,lettin us peep into the psychology of a child.Amole Gupte his wife,Deepa Bhatia(Edit & Reasearch)deserve a standing ovation.On the other hand,Aamir Khan lends his sensibility to the subject & has executed the film so well that it keeps u in its grip,nt giving u a single dull moment.Once the movie begins you forget abt where Aamir Khan the actor is coz the child Darsheel Safary,is so incredibly gifted as an actor that u love each & every frame he is in.Making a film on such a dry subject is a challenge & I personally believe nobody else cud hv executed it the way Aamir has done.He has brought "Great sensitivity coupled with quiet aggression" aptly described by Jaideep Sahni(writer of many films incl. Chak De India!).Most of the powerful moments of the film r without dialogues.Aamir superbly shows how intensity can be injected &,emotions be felt strongly with Silence.Aamir Khan as a director is a superb story-teller instead of one of those ones who try to show off their 'directorial skills' by emphasising more on flamboyant camerawork,sets etc. instead of the story.He is clear abt what he wants to convey & how he wants it to be conveyed.And when he has such a terrificly written script by Amole Gupte then the power of the medium is felt more strongly.So in the end,I wud like to say is what I wrote in my last post - GO & WATCH TZP,Aamir Khan is single-handedly transforming mainstream Hindi cinema.
