The movie Aasma is about a bunch of talented and aspiring college students who start a theatre group called “Aasma” which means “sky”.
Aasma is a story about a theatre group comprising of talented and aspiring college and actors set out to have some fun. Somewhere along their journey, they realize that they want more.

Through their insecurities, anxieties, and dilemmas they find that friendship and dedication leads them to near heights, beyond the darkness that temporarily blinds each of them. Aasma movie review…
Aasma has a bunch of talented artists (Shubhashish, Seema Biswas, Hrishita, Raghuveer, Joy, Mushtaq and others) but then luck has been eluding them for quite a while. They are unable to get offers to play and this leads to more problems.
The final nail on the head is hit when its main sponsor (Sachin Khedekar) backs out of the group and this makes them fall on to doldrums. From then on, the group tries to pool in their sources and try to restructure things but when all this is happening, it is discovered that the main character Shubh discovers that he is affected with HIV disease.
Here onwards, the film preaches how to live life normally even after facing such situations. How do they cope up with this situation forms the rest of the story.
Debutant actor Shubhashish is the real performer who makes an impression. The beautiful and sexy Nauheed Cyrussi and Hrishitaa Bhatt did not have much to offer in their roles. Raghuveer Yadav and Seema Biswas make their presence felt, but it was Mushtaq Khan and Sunil Rege who managed to do a good show.
The music needs a special mention as a maestro like Rahat fateh Ali Khan has lent his voice to this film because he whole heartedly felt the content was worth it. ‘Yeh Pal’ is already a rage, while the soulful song ‘Mann Bawara’ is a slow romantic number that one can enjoy to rejuvenate the mood. On the other hand the very raunchy ‘Choole Aasma’ makes every party person step into his dancing shoes.
The singers include popular names like Shaan, K.K, Kailash Kher, Mahalaxmi and Hero Honda sa re ga ma pa winner Debojit.
The film Aasmaappears as a hotch-potch of various other movies. While the in the first half there is a regular tale of moments, post interval it gets emotional and melodramatic at many instances. Aasma is closer to reality. It is about friendship, courage & having faith in knowing that to achieve your dreams, sky is the limit!
