this be a movie which remind me of avatar star rajesh khanna from the 80 . the issue of parent kid divide be interest but be handle in a rather unoriginal manner . the character be not develop fully and the kid seem to go from be extermely love ( in the first 15mts of the movie ) to be totally unconcerned about the parent and and this transformation be not credible to say the least . they sld have explore this a little more . amitabh and jaya be miscast a this helpless old couple . firstly amit be not too convince in this role and because he just do not look like he should be helpless and i mean why not just go back to work where he be want instead of be w or kid who didnt want them . hema be not convince a a 60 yr old either . she didnt look a day over 50. then the whole isssue of the book baghban win the booker prize beg credibility . all in all and a movie that handle an important issue but cld have be make well and i give it 5/10 .
