- Quotes
Rohan Singh: Tiny little memories are laid all over the lawn of innumerable moments. Barefoot, I have walked on it for so long that I have forgotten where I had removed my shoes. Soles were soft at the beginning and they are tender still. Indeed, they are bound to remain that way as long as the mischievous antics of the bitter-sweet memories keep tingling them. It is true that I do not remember where I had taken off the shoes, but coming to think of it, I do not need them anymore.

Rajat Barmecha stars as Rohan, who, after being abandoned for eight straight years in boarding school, returns to the industrial city of Jamshedpur and finds himself closeted with an authoritarian father and a younger half brother who he didn't even know existed.
'Udaan' is an inspiring story. Screenplay by Motwane & Anurag Kashyap is brilliant. Their protagonist, is not a passive one, he has a goal, that of becoming a writer, which has been stabbed by his authoritarian father. The Screenplay allows it's Hero to get courage in himself. It starts superbly, and continues it's momentum to the end.
Motwane's direction is great as well. The Cinematography is able. Amit Trivedi's Music is hummable. The Editing is killer.
Performance-Wise: Rajat Barmecha is wonderful. The youngster lives his character each moment. Ronit Roy as the authoritarian father, is electrifying. The actor performs like never before! Aayan Boradia is a wonder child. A dependable actor! Ram Kapoor as the polite & understanding uncle, is lovable. Manjot Singh appears fictitious.
On the whole, as my summary says, One Of The Finest Films Of 2010! Strongly Reccmended!
