Shown exact situation of medical services at cutt off areas from mainland. Superb movie. Great acting with best screenplay and editing works. Each and every section is very well handled by director and producer. Story of rural India medical facilities regarding how is the reality despite of government policies and schemes which ignored always. Well handled topic which usually not disscus in the real Life. How much doctor can do for people and how much he couldn't do due to his hand tied by the situation he faces due to lack of facilities by government of India. How people get affected by the crisis and medical services.

The best Odia movie. One of the best movies till now.1st tym after 5 yrs 60% seats were filled for an Odia movie in a multiplex. Can't believe a child sitting besides me scolded his disturbing father to concentrate on the movie .At the climax he stood up & said I will be a doctor definitely. Kudos to Devi Prasad Lenka & Vishal Mourya for giving this extraordinary movie to us. This movie is a tight slap to the cuttack based so called Ollywood film makers. They should retire & give works to these kind of new. Creative filmmakers . The duos Mumbai movie making skills clearly visible on the screen. Probably this will remain BabushanMohanty & 2nd lead named Ravi's best & memorable film.

Really disappointing Babhushan u hv bn wasting ur god gifted talent by doing nonsense ,joker ,idiotic movies till now in the name of commercial cinema. Babushan u hv rotten urself. U must give us such extraordinary new kind of movies not the cheap Ashok Pati movies.❤❤❤❤

Seriously it's been a long time since any odia film put out the strength of the actual film. DAMaN showing the artificial picture to grab the audience to theatre. Every minutes of the scenes have a gratitude level performance. Cinematography, Content, Location along with screenplay deserve a lot of applause. For the first time in the theatre of Odisha, Audience stand and cheers in the climaxxx scene. It is coming with emotional attachment,Love ,care and understanding the naturalism. DAMaN is originally a biography movie about a doctor who appears to be a lot of problems when a cut-off area people are not able to get a basic level of treatment. Go watch and feel the theme of DAMaN.....

What a movie yarr,finally someone changed whole ollywood industry in a single movie. Now i can proudly say this is our odia cinema. What a story line, what a cinematography and all actors in the movie just did their best. Request to every odia to watch the movie and you will feel proud for our odia movie. It will give you a complete package of entertainment with a social message. After this movie your respect will increase for every doctor. Salute to all doctors in the world and all the members including this movie. Feeling proud for the movie #Daman #odiacinema #proudforthemovie #ollywood #indiancinema.

Must watch.

One of the best Odia movies so far which breaks all the rules. Trend Setter

Start of a new era of Odia movie industry with Daman.

Original Content, Perfect Casting.

Babusan and Dipanwit have done really great job.👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

Cinematography, Direction, Song all are at par.

Picturization of beauty of Jungles of Malkanigiri, Koraput, Adivasi culture is really mind blowing.

Loved that Dhemsa song and Nichhatia Mana by Babusan Mohanty.

Kudos to director Duo for this awesome movie.

The efforts behind whole team is directly reflecting in the movie. All the very best to Daman team.

DAMAN.

Guys never watched such kind of odia movie in last 15 years... If you are a true odia then please go and watch 'daman' in theater..i bet you you would love it...thanks to the entire daman team to make such a masterpiece 🙏.. And the best part of this film is every single frame covered in odisha and in this film you don't get any vulgarity content..every song of this film is heart touching...if you never watched babushan film then plz must go and watch daman.must say every one should see this film with their family...till now the theatre experience of every single person is awesome.. So my rating is 10 out of 10..

I feel overwhelmed by the movie, such a movie beautiful movie with facts. This is the best way to put social issue what common people face day today life. Many people across Odisha can relate this movie with their real life issue, they face with medical facility, health care issue, Govt reach and lots more. This is common across the country, most of the state goes through this issue every year. I urge the Director, producer to release it in other languages as well and give it a national image.

This movie shows that Odia industry do have talent, potential and ability to think, deliver big content.

I wish for such movies to come.

All of you go and watch first time odisha own contain movie based on true story.#support odia movie like this movie.inspiring movie and acting of doctor babusan was great with all I will say just go and then say this is not a copy movie..Like other movies so pls go with your family this movie is also very inspiring for kids .So request as a odia protect your culture and go watch the movie in this movie all the odia cultures are shown acting direction was very perfectly done. You will not feel boaring and after interval the story will be more exciting upto interval you will not leave your place and you will have the curiosity to know after interval what story will be.

Cinematography, locations, direction, acting is awsome. You will live the entire movie with lot of emotions, heart touching scenes. Kudos to entire team and hope for blockbuster. You can't imagine such locations is existing within odisha. Culture of odisha tribes is presented in well manner and it require pan india release.

Request every odia people to atleast see this movie once in nearby theaters, believe me you won't regret. This type of original story should be made in future and cinema halls should give more screen and support this kind of cinema. I hardly watch odia cinema in movie hall but this one i bought ticket in last moment and realise that "Odisha- India's best kept secret"

To be Frank for every Odia movie lover, a good odia movie was just a gone day reality. I truly never thought in this life I will get an opportunity to say to the world that "Look, this is our Odia movie." Fortunately, Daman has demolished all my delusions.

The story, the direction, the screenplay, the dialogues are just perfect. However, the music of Gourav Anand impressed the most. Dhemsa, Nichhatia Mana, Ekela Chale, Daman, all four songs are the four rays of hope for the world of Odia music. They will be in every odia soothing playlist sooner or later.

Babushan is playing the lead role perfectly. No one else could be imagined in the role of Doctor Siddharth Mahanty. However, it is deepanwit who has really showcased what a able actor can add to the script. He has truly kept the audience hooked till the end. Not just these two, the truth is, all the actors, in big and small role, have performed wonderfully.

Odia Cinema in the recent years have been facing heavy criticism due to lack of originality. To all those critics, it's my humble request to show some love and support now. This movie truly deserve your blessings.

The film was very engaging. Enjoyed each and every moment. Got goose bumps in many scenes. The cinematography was upto the mark and the direction is cool. The acting of the star cast is upto the mark. The story line is based on the real life incident of a doctor and the struggle of people in backward districts of odisha due to lack of basic health amenities. And How a doctor fights against it It's a must watch movie. Hope this movie will attract a large mass to the halls. And it would be a success to an another level. The movie progression was also quiet interesting. The background music the songs were all in sync.

Good movie. A great attempt by the Directors of the film. Many thanks to all the Crew members who together working made the movie a Must watch. Finally a great shout out to the producers who really believed and tried to make such an Odia movie which shows a place in our state so called CUT OFF area of Malkangiri district, a place where there is no connectivity, no roads, no means of communication, no hospitals. It's like a place which is completely out of our world and it shows how the people live and survive without proper facilities, medications and live in disbeliefs and how a man's determination helped the people to overcome their problems. One should definitely watch this movie especially the doctors I would say as it will surely inspire them to do something for the mankind by not thinking about only about self . If only a single person's will power made such a thing possible which is near to impossible then each one has the same responsibility to do this. Lastly a huge shout out to Babushaan Mohanty for his acting. It was superb and loved to see Babushaan in a complete new avatar🙂.

Everyone praising this movie. So after long saw a movie in Cinema Hall. This is a good movie, storyline is something unique and inspired from real life success story of a doctor. Cinematography is verygood, Babushan has himself sung the beautiful songs in the picturescque Malkangiri. But it could have been better. The story of the reallife hero Dr Omkar Hota is very different. The Hero Sidharth Mohanty seemed very haughty, reluctant and unrealistic. Dr Omkar Hota won the hearts of Tribal people by his sheer dedication, hardwork, selfless service with unimaginable tenacity, courage, patience and persistance. But Dr Sidharth seemed to use force and fear as motivating factors, which could not have worked in real. Dr Omkar Hota went to Chitrakonda by his own choice, as he has described in his many interviews ( You can find tem in Yutube). But hero in this movie went there reluctantly. The story writer has taken Dr Omkar's story very superficially and the director has failed in picturising his character. I could percieve Dr Omkar (from his interviwes ) a man of extraordinary convictions, determination, will power, superbly intelligent, calm and down to earth person. But Dr Sidharth was haughty, unrespectful (to the tribal people), immature, superficial, moody, unstable and arrogant. It could have been a betterwatch if the real Dr Omkar Hota could have been shown in the movie.

Everything in this film are up to the mark sheher it is screen play, Music, story line, direction. Both Babushaan and Dipanweet are very talented and natural actors in this film they did their best to the character they have played. All the artist in this film did really good and one thing that make this movie special is each and every cast did very natural and perfect acting.

Director did excellent job in this film and his vision is next level. One thing is clear that content is important for that we don't need huge budget or item song and all.

I hope there will be more realistic films like Daman.

A great social story by team DAMaN, really worthy to watch.

Spot, cinematography, acting, director each and every corner the team has did it's 100cent.

A true story of a city doctor and his changed life after reach at rural odisha that is cut off odisha.

Young star Babushan did all time best job.

Music also upto the mark.

A worthy to watch movie.

Many doctors also need to learn from this master piece movie.

One more thing I requesting everyone to watch this movie at hall.

Please do not see pirated verson.

Please give some worth to the hard work of the entire team.

Team DAMaN hats up to you and your out of the box thought.

It's a excellent movie to watch. Current generation love this kind of movies. The key heighlights are true story giving a strong message to society. This is not only a story of odisha but also a mirror to every society. This is not a kind of typical commercial movies with family drama and romance. The direction is also very much simple and narrative. Everyone should watch this kind of movies at least once. Everyone should feel the real pain in the cut off areas. The role of doctors to the society beautifully explained here. So this movie should be an inspiration to all the young doctors to at least serve for this kind of people.

Thank you.

This is the movie which odia people looking for. This movie is a lesson to all those directors producers that content matters. Direction, cinematography, dialogues, all are at par. Thanks to all the members of Daman to take the risk and bring this type of movie to the audience. A Technical Masterpiece That Is Raw, & Gives A Never Seen Before Experience To The Audience I am out of words as i write this review. I was just blown away when i came out of the theater. With an excellent direction, brilliant cinematography its a visual treat. An excellent way to represent the biopic of a doctor. Make this type of movie otherwise don't make.

After so many year i go to theatre for watching odia movie.

• Wonderful movie ever
• Without heroine without any fight without vfx the movie is so amazing.

Lastly odia industry did some amazing work giving lots of efforts.

If odia industry do like same then we all forgot Bollywood and tollywood.

Just go on...... Really emotional and heart touching movie ever.

Who haven't watch go and watch after watching thanks me later.

And really thank to Babushan bro your acting skills is so amazing.

You guys are awesome and the song also which is singed by Babushan bro is touched my heart.

Hearty Congratulations for delivering us a wonderful movie.

This movie was inspired by a true event from a cut off area of Odisha State. This movie says that Odia film industry can do such kind of thing. Fantastic acting by young super star "Babushan Mohanty" as lead character. Very good making. Well done ollywood, well done 'DAMaN' Team. It is the beginning of an new era in ollywood film industry. Screen play, cinematography is wonderful by young director. This is very proud movement for all Odia people. It is our duty to full support our industry and actors. This is the first biography film made by ollywood film industry. Babushan luckily being a part of this new journey. Thank you.

This is another masterpiece on the behalf of regional film like kantara, do watch it, this movie nerver disappoint you, support odia film... #DAMAN. The first film of odia industry actually presents the current situation of cutoff district Malkangiri. I didn't feel that DAMAN saw me the truth and the reality of my odisha,having such a serious content ,this film acctually show the real odisha.. Literally after watching this I have no words how the was the experience that i gain from this movie, I will be happy if this film would dubbed in hindi and represent in national level.#Ollywood#DAMAN.....

After a long time, the movie Daman helped to save the odia industry through it's realistic storyline and representative the beauty of Odisha. The odia industry need this kind of movie to compete with other industries instead of copying. Odia movie industry is one of the oldest movie industry. Due to copying from others, it was not growing as it was in 90s. Do support this movie, I watched a odia movie after 7 years and always preferred to watch south indian movies but this time everything changed. I found my culture, natural beauty and a lot of things through this movie. Thanks to all the Daman team for bringing such a great movie. Lots of love from my heart.

Daman is one of the best movie ever made in odia and in an unique possible way also. I personally loved the movie but there were some parts which made me not liking them.

Things that made me fall in love : the characters, comic dialogues and timing, the way they portrayed some scenes, the scenic views of koraput and how beautifully they have merged those with storytelling.

Things I didn't like : Sound design and mix, background score could have been used intelligently, using of jump shots wasn't going well at some part and most importantly I felt it needed bit more detailings in the story...

The movie is about a doctor who is hesitant to undergo rural service and finally gives in. What follows after that is a series of incidents that changes the doctor and the belief of people.

This makes up for a good documentary as the narrative is predictable, and there is no serious twists and turns in the movie.

The intention of the makers to create awareness is well appreciated, but it could be better had it been told in an engaging way. There are couple of laugh moments and a good song. The VFX is tacky and camera movement is visible at many places.

Good movie purely because of it awareness motive. But not worthy to watch!!

This movie is really a masterpiece .. Great direction with wonderful screenplay .. I salute to the producer who have courage to make this type of movie in our odia industry ...Babusan mohanty and the co-actor dipanwit were doing there best .

Big thing is this is not a copy movie but also it's a real odia incident based on a true fact.

I think this movie can change the mindset of all odia film lover. And we expect that this movie will release in more than 5 language and it will succeed 100%. Because the content is king and this content is not fiction it's real and screen presentation is also very natural...Please I request to the entire team of daman movie maker please release it on pan India basis.....

SuperDirection #GreatActing #AwesomeStory #Blockbuster #Unbelievable #Wellmade #Inspiring #WowMusic This movie is outstanding, within this one year odia film industry has seen some new great heights with rising talented stars, Dipanwit efforts and work needs to be appreciated and seen. This movie has changed my perception, May the industry shine with glory and keep doing the great work.
