Nice movie (Based on True Events). Review on Aligarh

Aligarh is based on real events is about the legal battle for a common man's dignity against a conservative& insensitive system. Aligarh follows the struggle of Siras, a 60-year-old professor who loses his job after a couple of reporters barge into his house and film him in bed with another man. Manoj Bajpayee is excellent. Hansal Mehta's Aligarh is a relevant and important film.

Taken from a true and heart-breaking story of Professor Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras, who in 2010 was expelled from the Aligarh Muslim University after he was'caught' indulging in sexual activity with a male rickshaw puller, Aligarh sensitively portrays the lonely life of a homosexual person in this regressive society. Bajpayee gets into the skin of the character with such raw honesty that the viewer is immediately drawn into Siras' melancholic, lonely world where his companions are a glass of whiskey and Lata Mangeshkar playing on loop. He is a scarred and scared man, as the three locks on his doors poignantly suggest.

Excellent movie and Must Watch Movie.
