this is a nice classical children's film. i saw it when i was a child. it is as relevant 2day as was 50 yrs ago. the nature does not change. child will always be child, energetic, mischievious and mindful.and there is lot of in this film, the softness of love, patriotism, comedy, the lap of mother nature and much more. the film must be shown in every school.

This is also fine but why people still don't want to go for higher education, because the curiosity to do something new and innovative is still missing at the basic level - still we don't have any respect for greenery and water which is not taught in our schools in an effective manner that people apply it when they come out of it.

This movie still is relevant in the current education system wherein kids are now although been taught through modern methods of learning but still missing the touch to bring in much creativity and innovation in it. Still the education system flows in the direction going where we will just get a good job and earn some good money. Earlier it was government jobs, now it's IT.

[filmtvcritic]

All the songs in this movie were taught to us in school and are even played today during August 15th & 26th January & 2nd October celebrations. The makers of this movie and music are indeed great.
