It is rare to see a movie that treats an off-mainstream topic with such lucidity, that does it justice without going overboard. With brilliant acting (particularly from Darsheel Safary), impressive direction and a moving sound score (shankar mahadevan almost does an SPB in some areas), this is a movie that deserves much kudos.
Dyslexia is a topic that is increasingly gaining attention across the country. By giving it cinemascope focus, one hopes the movie would bring about a much needed change in attitudes - at least with some of the troubled teachers and parents who see it.

Hi Vasant,
Rajdeep here. I second your opinion on TZP- it was a very well-balanced movie. However, I also felt that had Darsheel not been a gifter painter in the movie and had Amir Khan not met him as an art teacher, things could have gone worse for him. So, while this movie may push people to spend more time to understand a child's true talent despite his shortcomings; in case a child truly isn't "special" and not in the company of considerate and understanding people, he/she will be forced to lead a straitjacketed life forever.
How's life? I heard you moved to Delhi? How's Everest? When did you join there?
Life's good. Yeah, to Gurgaon actually. Having a good time at work as well :D.
