"For me everything was black. But my teacher taught me a new meaning of Black.
Black is not only darkness and suffocation. It is the colour of achievement. The colour of knowledge. The color of the graduation robe."
Ever seen a complete movie? You could say YES if you have seen BLACK, the hindi movie of 2005 that stamped the authority that the Indian movie industry is not devoid of making people sit without fight, songs and comedy scenes.
Every scene in the movie is sculpted to perfection. The initial handicap of the parents not realizing what the problem is with their special child. The portrayal of agony when their daughter was differently handled by a complete stranger who is willing to break the protective shell of their beloved one, the tears that come out of joy when their child makes a minor progress, the care and love the teacher shows to help the parents come out their mental blocks and realize what their child really wants, what she really is...
And the attitude of the child that changes from frustration, dependence, sorrow, ignorance to understand and move in the path the teacher wants her to go.. in search of light.. not to see, not to hear, not to speak but just to feel it!!! and he indeed brought the light!
The performances by BigB and Rani mukherjee were commendable. I would bet that they would not only rate this performance of their's at the top and also have to struggle a lot in the upcoming opportunities if they get one to surpass this. They mainly made an impact because of the cast surrounding them. This is definitely not a movie run by two people with their strong display but also ably helped by the mother, father and most importantly her sister. No pillar strong enough without the sand particles filling the gap!
Kudos to the man of the movie, Sanjay Leela Bhansali for providing an emotionally striking movie. People are made to think that Emotional movies are a slow and boring enterprise. But the myth is broken by this astounding narration. Never did the movie flinch, not even a second. The people were rooted to their seats. This movie where the teacher takes his student towards the path of light will make your heart heavy. Tears will dribble down from your eyes even when you try to convinve yourself that this is just a movie. But you will never feel embarassed about it because you will not be the only one.
What I am trying to establish here is that, this movie is just not another tear-jerker. Here you will not be moved by the sorrow scenes where someone dies but with the display of joy at the success after a long hard fought battle. Tears will normally be salty but the tear of joy will be as sweet as the success itself.
And again a film to prove that 'Actions speak louder than words'
