Yeh Ballet Interview with Anupama Chopra | Netflix India | Film Companion

[@sagarchetipally]

Apart from the fact that this is such a great interview, Manish and Achintya sitting with their back straight throughout the interview are very intriguing.

True.. And it's an awesome movie

[@SRM_NZ]

you're just used to "awful American posture"

[@koushiknemani5135]

What a beautiful film that was. I just watched it and maaaannnn this film deserves way more attention and appreciation. The boys were great

[@passionfruitjello]

nemani koushik I swearr

[@sweetsandradee33145]

I really like Manish, because his ideologies are very good and something anyone and everyone can relate to ... He’s a true inspiration, especially mine

[@kartihk5133]

Watched the movie after Shonali Bose raved about it on her instagram and I don’t regret it anything. The movie was so so good and the lead were amazing. It’s on Netflix and everyone should give it a watch!

[@purnima13]

Loved the boys , after watching Amer and Manish and looking at Achintya and Manish together, I cannot imagine anybody else but Achintya playing Amer.He became Amer , he is gonna be an incredible actor if he decided to become one...such humble kids..God bless.

[@anshikasajeev616]

Why isn't Amer playing the role..?

[@kripanjalitellisnayak]

Love this! Their posture! The story! This interview! Everything is so different and so good.

[@khushihabbu9356]

One of the greatest movies I have ever seen 😊their dancing is a treat to eyes

[@gadhameenaselvan7463]

What an amazing moviee. Had tears seeing parts where theyy actually succeeded with a lott of hardworkkk. Lovedd itt.

[@SumanaPaul]

I don't remember what I was doing As I curiously started watching 'Yeh Ballet', seeing Indian actors and new concept, thinking it is going to be another good web series like 'The Selection Day'. the movie was so engaging that just before the climax dance sequence, I realised that it is a wonderful movie only. Its narrative just flowed like water. only glitches I could find that maybe Sooni Taraporevala could have avoided sudden outbursts of dance numbers. BTW, such a wonderful interview after a long time by Anupama Chopra. And please don't compare 'Yeh Ballet' with 'Gully Boy'.

[@prajjwalpokhriyal8287]

Finally an amazing Oscar quality film india has finally made

[@kuku16s]

Just to clarify, India has made many great movies. They just don’t get sent for the international awards.

[@user-hp6rr5hr2i]

Loved this movie end to end! These guys are just awesome!! Not only as dancers but as actors!!

[@ManjuManju-vk4uk]

Guys, if you have not yet seen this movie, it is a master piece, so good and emotional.

[@rickcruz5582]

I was putting this move off because most of the dance movies are sooo bad but I finally watched it and I LOVED it! It has a strong storyline.

[@pradeepshetty8172]

The movie was nice but after Slumdog millionaire and Gully boy the underdog story is getting jaded. I felt Saul's character felt short. The star of the movie is Manish. This chap can consider a career in the movies as a back up to his ballet. Manish is raw yet the emotions he conveyed felt genuine. The families of both boys were spot on in their deliverables. Asif seem a bit polished for a character from the slums. Having said that there is no denying he has tried hard to be the best version of this character. Overall the film is good but because we have been over explosed to the Mumbai slum underdog genre, I wasnt overjoyed. I reckon the movie should have had more dance training routines coz as an Indian audience ballet is a dance form we know little of. To see more of their hard work, the pain they endure against all odds and master their craft would have been more engaging. As an audience I would have felt I got introduced to a new artform. But since this movie is for Netflix I reckon a global audience sensibility is kept in mind. The entire Diwali celebration bit and the communal angle was not required as it didn't add to the stort telling of the film but I can see why it felt required as it is the reality of the characters from the slums. Sooni's direction and the look of the film is spot on. Overall a good weekend afternoon watch.

WHAT AN INTRO!

[@nikitamohan3390]

Why would this project be compared to Gully Boy? It would make sense if it was compared to Billy Elliot about a boy who becomes interested and loves ballet instead of boxing or anything else considered more "masculine"

[@gourangiverma3947]

maybe because of the common aesthetic like the old bombay look, an underdog story, having a passion for something unconventional, unsupportive parents, religion. but I don't think either film is a copy of the other. both films are good in their own right. as a lover of both classical music and hip-hop, i can say i liked both.

[@nikitamohan3390]

@@gourangiverma3947 What "Old bombay look"??? Gully Boy and Yeh Ballet are set in present times!

[@gourangiverma3947]

@@nikitamohan3390 i meant dharavi! usually mumbai is thought of as an urban place... i thought they called it 'old bombay' just as we have old lucknow and old delhi! sorry

Thank you so much to everyone who made this film happen! Love it so much. Top all time favorite works of art! Just so amazing, always tell everyone to experience this! Thanks netflix US.

[@ajraven5145]

The director looks like an older version of Taylor Swift. Also, 'Yeh Ballet' looks very interesting. Will def be checking it out. Also, fingers crossed Netflix decides to bring 'Selection Day' back soon.

[@AryanM3879]

[@ShalineeinFrance]

Right after Manish and Asif is the turn for 2 more Indian boys, Dipesh and Bobby who are also from the same dance school in Mumbai and are currently in Paris, France and their stories are equally intense. Please watch their stories here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIWskGioeqh7h8k

Hi. Im curious, why didnt Aamir play himself like Manish did?

[@moubhattacharyya1141]

He lives outside India and part of danceschool

[@Nabazinho674]

if manish could act in his own role then why cant d other?

[@arindamsahakundu2345]

Manish is so Cute ♥♥♥

[@roshni9618]

I'm disappointed that Achintya doesn't have any projects after this.

[@funtertainment2128]

Yeh Ballet is Gully Ballet but a good film

[@subratokirtania3202]

Just a curiosity.. Why Amir did not play himself like Manish? Achintya was really great but just wanted to know if Amir was not good with acting?

[@soonitaraporevala6600]

I auditioned Amir who was a very good actor but then he got admission to the very prestigious Royal Ballet School in London so he could not be in the movie & I had to look for someone else to play him.
