Aisa Yeh Jahaan does have the right ideas. It’s just sad that the execution lets them down. If you feel the Seven Sisters States don’t always get the recognition and status they deserve in India, then you definitely will find moments and themes in Aisa Yeh Jahaan that resonate. Otherwise, this could be a drag.

Aisa Yeh Jahaan is quaint and leaves the audience with several striking questions towards the end. Weaving several issues together, director Biswajeet Bora has spun a fine yarn with the film. It is also India’s first carbon-neutral film- the crew have planted 400 saplings around the country, making up for carbon emission during the production of the film.
