Zor Lagaa Ke Haiya, movie review
Zor Lagaa Ke Haiya is a film that carries a social message of saving the environment in the present age of rampant industrialization where money talks. Mithun Chakraborty is a homeless man who joins hand with a bunch of children to save a tree that faces the axe from a man who wants to bring brick and mortar in place of the tree’s lush green canopy. Zor Lagaa Ke Haiya movie review... We must have observed certain areas in our vicinity, which once had fine healthy trees and lots of greenery just some time back – now lay barren with cemented roads or just new construction coming up. This is often witnessed even at many spots on our city roads – with mindless cutting of trees often making way for display of hoardings or then just for road widening. And the aam aadmi is going on with his life with an indifferent attitude. What a shame! Now its up to the children who are our fu ....

It is an adaptation of the hugely popular gujarati play Kanji virudh(vs) Kanji. It has sensitive issues taken up, and it is a mockery of the so-called godmen and unfounded rituals. Kanjibhai Mehta (Paresh Rawal) is an atheist, who runs an antique shop. For him, god and religion are nothing more than a business proposition. An astute businessman, he never misses an opportunity to buy old or antique sort of idols of gods and other religious idols, which he usually sells as ‘antique’ or ‘rare’ idols at 10 times its original price or even more. The average and gullible buyer who is also a believer in god, truly wants to believe that these are actually centuries old and rare finds. God is the biggest money spinner for Kanjibhai, while his wife is as devout as one comes, infact so much so, that she goes the extra mile to atone for her husband’s sacrilegious babblings. The life has ....
