      Weak Direction & Story
      A boring village based movie with weak story & plot!

      Direction was below average as well.

      Even there are star value actors like Anil Kapoor, Meenakshi Seshadri & versatile actress Shabana Azmi in main leading role of Amba but what actors can do if they don't have interesting and powerful story behind them.

      It seems like it is another rotten copy of classic movie Mother India.
