The story of the 4 Sons of the 10th Sikh Guru is something every kid in Punjab has grown up with. So everyone in the audience already knows the 'plot' in a way. Still, this movie engrosses you, wraps you warmly in the lives of the Chaar Sahibzaadas, in the 17th-18th Century Punjab. It is an emotional ride. It Inspires you with the valor, Enrages you with the cruelty, Serenades you with the Kirtan and even makes you shed tears a few times. It relies heavily on the Narrative (done wonderfully by Om Puri) and the dialogue amongst the characters, specially the scenes at Sirhind involving the 2 younger Sons. For people who are not well versed with this episode of Sikh History, this movie can serve as a perfect 2 hour course.
Photo-Realistic Animation : it may not be really Impressive to the audience overexposed to world of Pixar, but it does the job gracefully. It was important for the characters to look like their pictures being carried over from centuries. So it worked perfectly well at that.
Thank you Harry Baweja, for a movie Full of Heart. Your relentless dedication towards the sensibilities of Sikhs, clearly shows in the handling of the crucial scenes, specially when they involved the Gurus. Hats Off !
Overall, this is one lovely movie, that can be enjoyed by the entire Family !
