Absolutely the worst movie.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

I myself was a victim of Hindu Muslim riot while living in Dhaka and this film reminded me in vivid details of what happens in real life during a communal riot. The film is a masterpiece in a sense that conflict between and muslims in India is so prevalent and common occurrence and for all these years with hundreds of movies made I have finally found one that dealt with this issue in real terms. The story is about Shekhar Mishra ( Arvind Swamy ) falling in love with Shaila Bano ( Monisha Koirala ) a Muslim girl and eventually marrying her without the blessing of their parents on both sides. They settle in Bombay where Shekhar works as reporter and have twin boys. The story is written in the backdrop of the Auyodha mosque attack during the 1990's and a communal riots breaks out. The director Mani Ratnam has handled the story very well with realistic scenes of the riot with the burning of vehicles and rampant killing on the streets as well as the chaos and confusion of the people and the government. Both Arvind Swamy and Monisha Koirala gave commendable performance in the two leading roles with good support from the others. The music and cinematography is above average. This is a good film to watch . I gave it a nine out of ten.

unless you are too closed minded to let your imagination run free. I must admit I hadn't watched a hindi film since seeing Sholay and Qurbani when I was just a small child. the fake punches and over the top storylines were too much to stomach watching a Hindi film. Until I happened to see Bombay with my Aunt and cousin. Seeing this film opened my eyes to Hindi films again. I've been a fan ever since. sure there are still a lot of over the top movies in the Hindi film genre, but the gems are the best. This movie is comparable to any movie I've seen in English. This is a must see film. Great story.

A tragic movie about the burning of Bombay by Muslims in 1995, in retaliation for the destruction of a muslim temple (which also holy place to Hindus.) The story focuses around a Hindu-muslim couple who are caught in the violent tensions of the times. The movie attempts to tell the story from both sides of the conflict, centering around the couple involved.
