Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Pawan Malhotra is brilliant as a young man in search of a way out of a quagmire. Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) SALIM LANGDE PE MAT RO is a strong milieu study, captured in powerful, lifelike images, well played and still timely. But for me personally, its also a bit too preachy in some moments. Rated: 7/10 Apr 20, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Saeed Akhtar Mirza's one of few movies. this movie was produced by NFDC. It is about a 'salim' and his search for identity amidst of same old and still fresh communal hatred. It may be 21 years old movie. but not for a moment you'll feel that you are watching an old movie. It has no songs and on a serious issue, still it entertains you throughout. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
