Paap(2004)-(Movies To See Before You Die-Drama)

While watching this all time classic I was amazed to see the grandeur and huge canvas on the screen, visualized by its makers at that time . It really must have taken a lot of courage to even think of making such a spectacular movie in 2004. No doubt, that is the reason for its being there in the Top 10 All Time Great Movies list by all critics and lovers of indian cinema. A well conceived movie with majestic touch. It revolves around the life span of a  young girl, Kaaya (Udita Goswami), living in the beautifully serene valley of Spiti, waiting to join a Buddhist monastery, an idea which has been fed to her since childhood by her father (Mohan Agashe) and one which she has never questioned. The huge sets in the climax were really unimaginable and a true experience to watch. Frankly speaking, I was more convinced by its direction and magnificent treatment of the movie than its content and storyline. It’s not a thorough entertaining stuff for the normal cine lover, but technically it has all the qualities of a great movie if viewed from the eyes of a film-maker. Hence go for it if you are keen on studying the art of film-making in a grand style.   Directed By Pooja Bhatt Starring : John Abraham & Udhitha Goswami
