Ramchand Pakistani

Nice movie. Plus+ Attitude of people are sown without getting melodramatic. Reaction of nadita das on hearing about border crossing,ramchand's reaction to marriage of her only friend,warning by brother in law to Nadita and by Munim to her lover and how his lover goes away from Nandita or how Pakaistani constable asks inspector to forget a bout a Hindu detainee are just dialogues how they would have happened in real life

2. jail cell is very realistic A fresh change from those of 70s with prisoners wearing white striped clothes. Crowded yes they are in a similar manner

Minuses

1. tone of madamji is Deccani Urdu - hyderabadi a mismatch with her surrounding. 2. In fact tone of none of character exhibit their thari character 3. Why the jailer was shown Muslim ? no need was there 4. It would have been good if they could show if Pakistani consulate treated matter lightly because Hindus were involved 5. Upper caste Hindus of Pkaistan were missing from action

Still background music is very good and little captions like migration of thari Hindus to work as bonded laborers with Sindhi vaderas and similar such things would have helped audience outside Pakistan
