Good Message, Good Direction and Very Well acting.

This movie deserves at least 7 because of the message director wants to convey. Female Foeticide is a big issue in Indian subcontinent. Social discrimination against women and a preference for sons have been rising and a awareness is needed to stop it.

The tag line says it all "Where would you be if your mother was not allowed to be born?"

Very good acting by all the actors, Parvin Abbas, Rahul Singh in his Haryanvi accent, the child artists Lehar Khan and the local Haryana boys. the first half of the movie was little stretched, however the ending covers it all. Its more like a message documentary turned into a movie concept. Happy Watching ~!
