My Friend Ganesha

It is one of the films where you do not need a big character death or fight scenes to be emotional. The simple issue of a child craving for love, friendship and attention has been acted out and represented beautifully by Ahsaas Channa and Rajiv Ruia that it will make you nostalgic, bring a smile to your face at the simple innocence of young Ashu and also break your heart at the poor child and his dilemma, his desire of receiving love and care, something which all of us tend to take for granted. A young boy who, unlike kids of his age who desire chocolates and toys and whatnot, simply craves for a friend who will listen to him and be there for him. All the actors have done great, but younger Ahsaas steals the show with her performance of a young boy, making you feel happy when Ashu gets what he wants, and making you want to give him a hug and console him when he cries and is sad. The others, like the parents, are ok. Upasana Singh deserves a round of applause for her performance as the comedic Gangutai, as the kids will like her.

Verdict: If you like heartwarming and good movies without too much drama, then you must watch this movie.
