Lorie
Vijay talwar's lorie is a movie about motherhood. We keep reading stories about lost children's and people stealing children’s very often in the newspapers. This movie is a story about those peoples.
----story------
Geeta Malhotra (Shabana Azmi) a rich girl marries Bhupinder (Farooq Shaikh) against her mom (Rohini Hattangadi) and dad(B.L.Chopra).Geeta later finds out that she cannot become a mother, she goes through a depressive period and one fine day she steals a child.The police are after her, the movie goes to a court climax where she pleads that she should be given the ownership of the child. what happens is the climax.
-----------------
The movie heavily relies on the mother sentiment's and manipulates it to the hilt.The case of the lost child's custody can be dismissed without any question from a law point of view.But because of all the indian mother sentimentality, the movie becomes a court room drama at the end. Decent performance by everyone.
