A violinist and a vocal singer, their children; a businessman, his wife and their daughter accidentally meet on a bridge spanning the banks of the Godavari river in Andhra Pradesh, India. Fast forward twenty years, the children grow up and the bridge becomes a symbolic one, reuniting the lives and deaths of the six that met on that fateful day. Music, love, compassion are a common thread that weaves life that culminates in a fusion concert where tradition interlaces with modern, in costume, music, instruments but timeless values. The multi layered plot is simple. Girl's mother is supportive of the boy's aspiration to get a band together. The boy's dad, a wealthy landowner wants his son to manage his vast estate, rather than scrounge for gigs in the city. The boy chooses to chase his dream. The aspirations of the vocalist and violinist are realised through the children.

| New York PostV.A. MusettoCombining a thoughtful script with splendid acting -- especially by Sansa -- Bellocchio has fashioned a tense thriller that is both understated and powerful. |
| VarietyJay WeissbergDattani's assembled an impressive cast and crew. |
| User ReviewPrivate UA great movie....... with fantastic carnatic songs.... |
| User ReviewMaulik BThe story was ok. Shabana Azmi's acting was good at most times. Loved the Karnatic music in the movie. The whole movie was predicting - I figured out what was going to happen throughout the movie after I saw the bus accident. I'm gonna give an extra star for the music. |
| User ReviewWrik SIf not for the horrible music score, this movie would have certainly a big score..... typical indian movie style in some areas, but well packaged in all... |
| User ReviewMarisa RI thought the beginning was very promising; the photography of rural India plus the mesmerizing carnatic music had a lot of potential. But only Shabana Azmi lived up to her usual high standards of acting. Everyone else was pretty bad; the 'modern' music was very low quality, and their understanding of the music world is quite flawed. As if in 2005 a professional musician will use a battery small boom box to listen to his music... it's like portraying a professional photographer succeeding with a disposable camera. The young actress had the longest roots and no acting skills. The classical music was awesome. |
| User ReviewChandrahasa RCute. The music was a little funny and outdated,and it was rather cheesy, but a fun movie. |
| User ReviewAkash SSo mediocre. The movie is trying so hard to make you feel something, but fails miserably. Other than Shabana Azmi, who brilliantly gets into the shoes of the character, no one else in the movie knows how to act. |
| User ReviewPhani VHorrible movie, cheesy and full of bad acting. Very avoidable. |
| User ReviewKartik Ca single star for perizaad. :) i jus love her. the movie sucked |
