Lion movie nominated for 6 oscars starring Dev Patel last saw him in Slumdog Millionare as Jamal. I had misty eyes at the end of the movie as its emotionally churning, surreal so poignant and relevant in todays Geo-political scenario where we are fighting caste,color, migrants vs non migrant and some where amidst all this the basic ethos of humanity gets lost.
Its  beautiful story about a boy from Khandwa MP who gets lost in a train at the age of 5 lands accidentally in Kolkata and escapes the human trafficking and reaches a orphanage from where he is adopted by an Australian family. 25 yes later he plans to go back to find his roots and through google earth finally finds his village and finally finds answer to his unanswered questions.
