Feb 4, 2015 A very arty film about a poor school boy having crush on the girl in his school who is of upper caste. And all his aspirations get crushed when his family has to catch a pig in front of the enitre village including the girl. A ok film if you are able to sit through a typical arty film. See more

Oct 26, 2014 Not quite as deep or moving as its reviews might suggest, but it does make some excellent social observations on the impoverished in this part of India. See more

May 18, 2014 Insightful and well-observed. Underneath the fun and games is real bitterness and a stinging indictment of inequality (as represented by the caste system, but really, could be applied anywhere). Props to the ballsy ending. See more

Mar 30, 2014 It makes your heart ache, it makes you cry, it makes you think. ?#?Fandry? a powerful Marathi cinema. It not only has a great theme but also made with great cinematographic prowess. Has a melancholic theme but presented very well and the actors have delivered a powerful and enchanting performance in equal parts. Qudos to the producers/directors and to the Marathi audience for making room to such non-commercial theme without which it is impossible to make such movies! See more

Feb 23, 2014 On the face of the caste system that is prevalent in India.. this sure is one thought provoking movie, pushing the spectator to rethink about the social construct of our society, the notions of inequalities, suffering, exploitation and nation.. it is a must watch. See more
