I was amazed at how badly made this movie is. The film boasts a rocking star cast - Anupam Kher, Jaya Bachhan, Rani Mukherjee, Konkona Sen Sharma, Abhishek Bachhan - but still fails to deliver!!
They took a storyline that has been *made* and *remade* a gazillion times in Cinema the world over, and then made a hash of it!
The story of an innocent girl turning to prostitution to fend for her family. The harsh reality of the lives of the poor. To see what society drives some women and their families too. The old rehashed story of desperate times, and even more desperate measures.. If you were however looking for good cinema you are in the wrong theater! This movie does not bother getting its hands dirty!
Take the Marathi film *Doghi* (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0305483/), subtract all the substance, add loads of glamor, allow for a pinch of acting, and you have the film *Lagaa Chunari Mein Daag*.
