SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Jayanthan Ravi I had read about the film in some reviews which were all positive. The names Vishal Baradwaj and Gulzar did create some expectations in me. And did they meet? Well, frankly..more than that !The story is simple. A girl in a remote village with an attractive blue umbrella, is suddenly grieved by the loss of it and she suspects all those in the village who had an eye on it, especially the 'Kathri', the tea shop owner, amazingly portrayed on screen by Pankaj Kapur.Never before, have I seen Himachal so beautifully captured on screen, with all the green and the snow white during the last part of the movie. The director goes poetic when on screen he shows the transformation to the winter, from the cotton dust to snow flakes. The other main character of the movie is the music. The songs and the BGM do add to the feel and look of the film.It's a treat to watch this one. Though categorized as a children's film, it is for all ages.

Manoj Ransing Director Vishal Bhardwaj is by now an expert in making the movies suitable for children genre. The movie "Blue Umbrella" is much more similar to his previous creation Makdee, gives a lot to watch for adults than the children. I think these movies are two amongst the best in this category.The story of 'Blue Umbrella' takes place at a some cold Himalayan village. The presentation and camera work to show the coolness of the village is marvelous. Within few minutes the audience will get mix with the village and the people living in it. The characters are sketched and presented in very simple manner and are introduced naturally. It takes just one song and a couple of scenes to get into the movie before the real story begun.The music and the acting are great points, which goes in favor of movie. Pankaj Kapur who leads the screen is a natural actor and as in his other characters you wont find any misbehavior in Nandkishor character. The child actor Shriya has also done a great job. The feelings that Biniya gets when she gets the umbrella, and again the sorrow for the lost of umbrella are done excellently by Shriya. Full credits to here and the director.I won't say anymore about this one. If you are reading this I will urge you to watch this. It is not one of those multi-masala Bollywood movies, neither the ultra boring Indian art movies. It is in between these two extremes and very much different than other movie. It's a real cool piece of cinema which is a great pleasure for the eyes and the mind. I am regretting for not watching the movie in theater. (I didn't recall this movie was released in any theater in Bangalore). But certainly from next time, I will wait impatiently for children movies from Vishal Bhardwaj.

anindyaall Superb Performances, panoramic cinematography, excellent storytelling and made with the heart. Like all other Vishal movies this one also has all the above qualities, but this movie has one thing which takes it ahead form all his earlier flicks and that is the way it treats humans and their emotions. Vishal turns the very simple story to the story of humanity and simplicity remains as it is.How an Blue Umbrella becomes center of two lives and how the two dealt with this. These two characters are Binya and Nand Kishore, played by introducing child artist Shreya and heavily experienced Pankaj Kapur. Pankaj Kapur lived the character of Nand Kishore in the movie. This was surely the best performance by him. His dialog delivery , accent , body language all was so real.I think Blue Umbrella is not only meant for children but for everyone who want to see great movies. Vishal has created the movies which are truly across boundaries and across ages.surely a 10/10.
