Supermen of Malegaon: An "Eulogy"

The wonderful movie called "Supermen of Malegaon" endlessly charms you through its sharp wit and unintentional humor. Made on a low budget of Rs. 1 Lakh it is not a movie but the "Making" of the movie titled "Malegaon ka Superman". It carefully depicts the various problems that the director Shaikh Nasir faces in making the movie in the communally divided, low income town of Malegaon which is situated 300 km from Mumbai.

The movie depicts that talent and desire don't need big canvas to thrive upon. If you have a dream and an active will to pursue it, there is no necessity to make it large.

This is the inherent theme of the simple and sweet documentary which won several accolades in film festivals worldwide.The actor Shafiq Sheikh was battling throat cancer throughout the filming and died the next day after the special screening. He just lived enough to fulfil his dream to become a movie star.

You can watch the entire movie here.
