EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI

The Indian Film Industry is blooming with a variety of cinemas in the making. Over the last few years, the Indian film industry has witnessed a growth of path breaking visioneers, who have couraged to think out of the blue. One of them is Vishal Bharadwaj, a multitalented film maker.

The film is an adaptation of Ruskin Bond’s novel ‘THE BLUE UMBRELLA’. The Blue Umbrella unfolds the story of a blue coloured umbrella that grows on to become an object of desire in a small settlement situated in Himachal Pradesh.

Biniya (Shreya Sharma) is an eleven year old young and chirpy girl. She discovers a bright and attractive blue umbrella. The umbrella is one of its kind and draws the attention of Nandkishore Khatri (Pankaj Kapur) towards it.

Khatri is a miser with a soft spot for mouth watering pickles. He runs a small tea stall in the village. He is acquitted with a smart mind, which he misuses to deceive little kids off their possessions.
