Haryana ki chhoriyan who are turned into strong wrestlers by their baapu, this is a true story of Mahavir Singh Phogat and his efforts to turn his daughters Geeta and Babita into international wrestlers- a dream of his which was fulfilled. Director Nitesh Tiwari takes a giant leap in terms of storytelling, to tell a story which was hardly known. Aamir Khan plays Mahavir Phogat with the grace at his best, and Fatima Sana Sheikh, Sanya Malhotra breathe life into Geeta and Babita. The predictable climax gives you chills. It is, overall, a film filled with fun and also nationalist sentiments. I'm going with 4 stars.   { more

Nitesh Tiwari's Dangal is highly gripping and transitions smoothly from being a sports drama to an emotional one. The inspiring tale of Mahavir and his daughters is narrated in such a way that you laugh, cry and at some point even make sure you root for these characters right till the end.The father-daughter relationships between Geeta and Mahavir and Babita and Mahavir are explored extremely well emotionally. Also, how situations change the ties between the two sisters has been tapped into well.DANGAL is a flawless piece of work -- it's captivating, unpredictable, spellbinding, entertaining and never overstays its welcome. I rate 5/5 for 'Dangal' and Aamir's best performance since Lagaan.   { more
