    Swades better than Shwaas is (though I agree it about Maqbool)

    Astitva better than Hey ! Ram is haiyO haiyo !

    I think Shwaas was a very well made film and certainly better than Swades. The efforts of the producer and director to promote their film for Oscars is a story in itself. They traveled around the country to hold special shows and collect money. The special screening of the film at Bangalore was followed by the circulation of a collection box for people to contribute towards Oscar compaign.

    As for Astitva, it was probably new to the N. Indian audience but certainly not to us.

    KB made a career out of movies like this. Of course it is a sensitive film by Mahesh Manjrekar. It is just about 20 yrs late for us

    Swades was a real soul stirrer, esp for people who are emotionally attached to the nation and the issues that are plaguing it......it also is the movie for ppl. who put emotions first rather than money.......many ppl. couldnt digest the fact that a person can resign from NASA to settle in India.......i dunt think it is impossible for ppl. whom i have described above.......Swades's noble intentions were more than the technical/cinematic brilliance of other movies.....

    (btw, i wud have loved swades with or without ARR )

    somehow, i felt Hey Ram was a very amateurish effort at direction.......even Virumaandi was no different.....

    What exactly made you think Hey Ram was an amateurish effort? Any particular sequences? Any goof-ups?

    characterisation, sequences didnt gel that well....that's the first impression i had when i watched it some 4 yrs back........again we are talking abt Oscar standards......maybe movie is gr8 in Kollywood/Bollywood level.......

    maybe also bcos of the "i hate kamal" cap that i always wear.....
