Sarala, an extremely bright girl, who did not know a word of Hindi had to learn all dialogues by heart but ultimately acted so well many critics were stunned by her performance. When the film was presented at the Toronto Film Festival a critic said, ``The film is centred by the extraordinary performance of Sarala as the young Chuyia, a girl whose spirit remains unbroken. Her refusal to bend to her plight carries considerable emotive power and elevates Water from a harsh tale of deprivation into one of hope and the possibility of overcoming. Mehta has made a film for the ages.''
