Storyline
Dashrath Manjhi was a poor man from the lowest of the low castes, living in a remote village cut off from the world by a rocky mountain range. Life for him was a daily struggle for survival. He loved his wife, Phaguniya, beyond belief. One day, while climbing the mountain to bring him food, his wife slipped, fell and died. Overwhelmed by grief, Dashrath decided to carve out a path through the mountain, so that no one else would suffer his fate. For 22 years, all by himself, with just a hammer and a chisel, he hammered away at the rocks, till the path was carved out from the mountain.
Reviews
I became a big fan of Irffan Khan after watching "Paan Singh Tomar" and got a perception that only Irfaan Khan's power performance can transform local heroes into reel life characters..
But, here is a new star .. "Nawaazudin". He has left Irfaan Khan way behind by his performance. The film is based on the real story of "Dasrath Ram manjhi" . I feel bad for the movie that it got leaked on the Internet.
Not only the lead actor, but the whole cast has done some exemplary work. Ketan Mehta's direction is edge-cutting.
Go spend some time and watch this movie to know our local hero " Mr. Maanjhi".
