Feelings after watching "The Lion"

This is a long journey home, a journey that follows the call of the spirit and the drive of the flesh. Both mothers are blooming with the most precious and beautiful motherhood in this world. There are enough people in the world, and giving birth to a child will not change anything, but if you can give a child who is suffering a chance, it may have a little meaning. The adoptive mother is such a kind person like a god. The biological mother, on the other hand, stayed in her hometown, insisting on the belief that her child would definitely return home, and spent more than 20 years in silence. Every character is distressing, but the most sad part is the adaptation of the real events at the end of the film. The long way home, I hope every unfortunate child has a happy ending.

    The director used many long shots to show the coast, desert, and railway tracks of India, which made the audience watch this work as if following the protagonist's mental journey, and also felt the 25 years since the protagonist was away from home. The most touching thing is the brotherhood between Saroo and his brother Guddu. They climbed the train together, walked the train track together, and walked through the countryside together. The beginning and the end echo each other, which is warm and heartbreaking.

    Sunny pawar's performance is so good that I think the devs are overshadowed. The Indian part is great but it's a bit slow, and the Australian part feels mindless at the end. The two mothers hug at the end. It's so touching and amazing. Sheru is hindi for LION ( Dev is so handsome I almost want to cry
