Laga Chunari Mein Daag Review
Saw LCMD today, by the name of the movie anyone guess the storyline.
Yep its sad story.In terms of acting....everyone is amazing...especially Rani, Jaya, Konkana(in the mentioned order, as per me). Would say its a very well directed movie.

I cried so much watching it...its been a while since a movie made me cry.
So, if are interested in seeing good acting and have a tissue box handy...go for it.
Its a very touching tale.

The way Rani comes to city, in the hope of earning money for her family..telling her family lies that she has a job...so that they allow her to go...The scene where rani calls home to tell her mother she is coming back....where her mother barely hears her and just tells her about the problems...and later realises what her daughter was trying to say....lot of touching scenes...

The movie makes u think, so many people come to city in the hope of earning money for there family, such a small percentage of them really make it.

After seeing the movie, i remembered that today, while was on the street, met a couple with a kid..they asked me if i knew marathi or hindi...and i said yes..the husband told me that they had gone to tirupati and they had lost there money, if i can help them out...i was looking at them trying to find out are they being honest or not...he said he will send the money..i asked them what the fare is for a railway ticket...he said 200 Rs each. I gave him 500 Rs note, he then said there are 2 more people...if i can shell 500 Rs more...i somehow started doubting them...so just said no and moved on.

Sometimes it becomes very tough to differentiate between geninue and cheats. Sadly one bad experience and you stop trusting anyone.

I really hope this couple was geninue.

You did a good deed Madhu. Sometimes we are able to figure out if the person asking for help is genuine or not but not always. Such times you just go by what your heart says [of course you still don't stop your car on a lonely road at midnight].
As long its matter of few bucks, its better to feel cheated then to have a heavy heart otherwise :)

You did your part by helping them out. If they are genuine, it's not fair in their part to ask for more. As you said, it's very difficult to determine whether they are saying the truth or not.
You are good soul, Madhu.

Movie dekhoongi.

I think it is good to give than not to give most of the times (unless you know for sure, like all those on red lights in Delhi) nahin toh lagta hai ke kahin kisi ko madad chaahiye thi aur humne nahin dee. I think you did good.
