Partition (2007) Reviews

Determined to leave the ravages of war behind, Gian Singh (Jimi Mistry) resigns from the British Indian Army to a quiet life, living with his widowed mother Shanti. He suddenly finds himself responsible for the life of a girl, Naseem (Kristin Kreuk), traumatized by the events that separated her from her two brothers and her father who was killed in front of them. Slowly, resisting all the taboos, Gian falls in love with the vulnerable girl.
Gian and Naseem have a son, and do all they can to re-unite their family.

This movie is a moving and epic story, where the main characters battle the forces that haunt their innocent love, fighting the odds to survive in a world surrounded by hate.

Beautiful photography. Great cast. It was refreshing to see Kreuk in something other than Smallville, although her acting is pretty much similar. And I was delighted to see foreign actors (from India and Pakistan) and appreciate them.

A beautiful love story.
Recommended movie.
