Over deze film

An unexpected phone call shakes Dia (Madhuri Dixit) out of her dance rehearsal in New York.

Her teacher, her guru, is dying and she must return to India. The town where she grew up, the town where she learnt to live and to dance. Also the town she left on an impulse, severing ties with her parents and her people.

It is a poignant and troubled return; not only has her guru passed away but the institution that he so lovingly nurtured is in decay and under threat of demolition. Ajanta theatre, the once vibrant hub of the community, the place where Dia's fondest memories are embedded must now be brought down because the local political authorities feel it a waste of prime real estate.

Dia picks up the gauntlet to turn this ruin into a vibrant and bustling theatre that was once the soul of her little town, while fighting discrimination, resentfulness and her own demons.

Don't know why M Dixit thinks Dancing is equivalent of acting ....wanted to give Negative.... 1 star is only for Konkana Sen who made this movie at least bearable

M speechless...i really don't know why this was a so called flop on box office, but never in my eyes. I admire this film and would love watching again...i would suggest the viewers to just go on with this film...its worth watching!!

A feel good film with a strong message, crisp dialogs, great camerawork, and some superb actors . Obviously there is Madhuri Dixit with her enigmatic smile and dream like dance.
