Film Review: PEEPLI [LIVE]


PEEPLI is very [LIVE]ly

An actor like Aamir Khan producing a film in a village. Minus Stars, Minus Grandeur, Minus Costumes, Minus Him! Wow and still the film is LIVELY. Yep, one can definitely like Peepli very Deeply. And thats the Plus Factor of this rustic, low budget venture!
Two very poor farming brothers take loan for their livelihood and when they are not in a position to repay, they dont have any other way than to commit suicide as the family will get the pension. And they decide to, but the sensation creates as the Media tries to cover it and make it a Breaking News for its TRPs. Political issues and Farmer's plea takes this realistic film to a different level!
The film deserves to be exempted from tax and released as an Educational Documentary. Although entertaining, the film is more like a documentary and is a must watch for audience of all ages and all caste and creed. A farmers plight and a businessman's delight - its a film for Class and Mass too.
Do we really need actors to get the audience to the theaters? Definitely no. But a good script handled by the director (first time journalist director) and a stamp of Aamir Khan as a producer is more than enough for this film to be already going House full. It can be declared right today, SUPER HIT!
