jaybisht-3554723 May 2023
Yes its quite amazing for me actually what we have learnt from bollywood movies and dirty WEBSERIES...the ashrams are not good place....but here I really found life is worth living what people live there.....Just by viewing the movie I can feel people there are free from all stressess...they are so simple and true...they dont need materialistic world to live happy n healthy...they are truly moving towards the Ishwar/allah/God or simply towards the supreme....hats off to the team of the flip side movie who brought the actual facts about Ashram otherwise we would never get the right information about sant and their ashrams...really I wish I live there....

Bapuji is clearly innocent.
sonprince-8319725 January 2021
Star new themselves did documentary decade back and Bapuji has been doing the social service for more than 5 decades, it is impossible about what media mostly shown about Bapuji. He is completely innocent based on time, location, mobile records, difference in FIR and statement in court, missing video of FIR, most important clean medical report. This movie clearly predicts that truth, real documentary.

Fact about Ashram..
rajeshpisode-8629823 May 2023
A lot of people defame to Ashram of Asharamji Bapu.. But they don't know about fact of Ashram.

A lot of people get benefit of this ashram to overall development of our life.. Such type of short movie is very useful to show fact of Society... This is our responsibility to understand importance of Sanatan Dharm and Ashram which is based on our Society.. Indian Culture is one of the culture which is very useful for our Society.

But Now a day western culture effect to our Society.

Therefore we should be understand importance of our culture and Ashram which is Made by Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu in our Society..

Truly a great effort towards truth
tsubodh-7438723 May 2023
This documentary has shown the correct picture which were not shown to us by media. This is truly a great effort to bring the truth to the society. These kind of documentaries are eye opener as everyone is not able to visit the places like ashrams. Showing the things using videography has more impact on human brain than just simple words. I am personally impressed after seeing the flip side of the sant Shri Asharamji bapu ashram works and social activities being carried out by them. I appreciate the effort of producers and directors for bringing the truth to the society. We need more such movies in future.

Good Movie
omp-9171623 May 2023
Very nice movie. Trurth showing movie. This shows the truth of sanskriti saviour saint. Infact Bapuji is Benevolent saint. Anti Hindu Media is defaming the saint. While satsang and welfare activities of the saint are the lifeline of the people. 'Parents Worship Day' and other sanskriti saviour Initiatives by Bapuji are making our country as 'Vishwa Guru Bharat'. I appreciate the director and all personnel of this movie. In fact after long time such a movie has come. We all know our glorious sanskriti. And we must take benefits from our sanskriti. Where is saint there is Sanskriti. This movie is very very nice, Very very good and appreciable.

Watch the Real Asaram Bapu
vaibhavdivy23 May 2023
This was really a hot topic since it started but the movie was made fabulous to present the truth as media showed the case as tail of a devil but the truth seems something else.

How great things happen in ashram and fabulous religion uplifting programmes being run by him.

Bcz of media trial before the court trial it made Bapu as the most wrong man but one must watch this documentary movie.

When one visits the ashram of Bapu then one can experience what is the easy & tight religious schedule of his ashrams.

Happy to see at least someone has power to make a clarifying shortfilm on such a matter having lots of atrocities filled by media men.

A daring representation of the Truth midst high controversy!
namita050813 December 2016
This movie deserves all accolades as it takes up the daunting task of bringing out the truth of an Indian saint. The movie is made from the heart and shatters all misconceptions created and mass hysteria spread about nothing.

It shows the truth with all innocence and simplicity. It tries to show the real picture of the circumstances and the realities of the inmates of the Ashram which has not been shown anywhere else. The voices which were never heard and suppressed in this massive conspiracy are brought to light. This movie is impartial and only brings out the facts. Anyone who has doubted Sant Shri Asaramji Bapu must watch this short movie as it is a revelation and eye opener!

Kudos to this fearless team of movie makers as it is made while the conspiracy is still going on while justice has been delayed!

Much needed movie to show truth.
mugdharede23 May 2023
This movie depicts the real story of Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu Ashram. Big congratulations to makers who dared to show truth to people inspite the premeditated negative campaign against Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu and his Ashram. This movie is very informative and mind numbing as how media can twist the truth and show the exact opposite of reality. The news channels showed 24/7 news and debates for defaming innocent saint and his Ashram, without any ounce of truth in it. How easily people can be brain washed by these paid media houses, if they decide to defame any person or institution. This movie is the tight slap in the faces on those who for the sake of money, are defaming our saints and culture. This eye opener movie is must watch for all and especially for those who blindly believe what ever rubbish media shows whitout giving second thought. I highly recommend this movie. 👏👍👌

Bekar film paisha barbad
bariaramanbhai3 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Favorable reviews and ratings. It's pretty funny to see Bollywood trying to manipulate the media and critics to create a positive buzz. But let me give you a detailed critique of their flaws and expose them point by point.

At first, the filmmakers wanted to make a movie about a particular Hindu guru, but they knew that the case was still in progress. According to the law, there is no final decision yet because the high court can overturn the session court's decision. So why hurry to make a movie based on an unresolved case? Do these filmmakers think they're above the constitution?

The Documentary India Deserves
dhvarde23 May 2023
This Documentary in itself is spiritual.

Why?

As it accurately displays what happens at the Ashrams where so many devotees gather to actually enhance their spiritual Journey.

This Documentary is a live example of the positivity that resides within Indian saints and their hearts.

This Documentary will give you a complete idea as to why people from foreign countries are ready to give up their richness and travel back here to enjoy spiritual nectar.

This Documentary tells how great is the Sanatan literature and how these saints are a target of all other religions who are unsuccessful in their conversion regiment.

did not reach the truth of the ashram
The trends that happen in the ashram, big platforms, news channels, big organizations, big TV channels do not tell the true incidents of the ashram, they have shown negative on TV channels and in this movie, the real NTV channels did not do the task of reaching out to the people, but in this movie, the public will get a chance to know the truth, so everyone should take advantage of it, the truth should reach everyone. If seen in reality, the events of the ashram are true events in it, enjoy watching this movie, have fun, promote the culture, spread it, it is very good, everyone should take advantage of the culture.

Hidden Truth About Ashram
kachhawasachin23 May 2023
This Movie shows the real truth about Ashram & the selfless, tireless services done by Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu & his disciples

So now I can understand why paid media hide this real truth from society because they are corrupt & work only for trp

Paid media don't show that the so called incident took place in Jodhpur (Rajsthan) & the girl belongs to U. P. but the FIR was filed in Delhi after 5 days at midnight

They never show that in medical report of the girl not even a single scratch mark found on her body

They never show that call details of the time of so called incident girl was busy on phone

They never tell us that the Major girl taking benifit of pocso act with unproven high school certificate

So now everyone can understand that this is fake & baseless case to defame a great Saint

Thanks for the entire team who work on this movie to bring the truth in front on society.

Inside Ashram only peace.
rajeshmane-4349423 May 2023
Yes this short film is based on truth. When I reached in Ashram I found that all devotees are warry less .Some of them praying,some are chanting.

This place is only for to got 'ATMA SHANTI'. I am very lucky because last some days I am in tress. Now I am ok to fallow ashram activities. I satisfied for my health issues now. I will thanks to sant Shri Asharamji aram ji Bapu. Because all Ashrams give peace to nation all citizens. Without drink, without smoke we got peace in Ashram. Now I will go in Ashram Delhi for yoga for good health. All aashram arts are made for to got peace.

I proud all Indian Sant.

Truth revealer
rajeevgalaxym22 May 2023
Nobody even a liar don't like/want lie from other's. It is a great work by the team to reveal the truth and the conspiracy behind the false case framed against, just to seperate him from People, to stop him from doing the right things, like bringing back those who left their roots and to help the needy and try to safeguard the younger generation from being devastated by not following the right path.

He brought the new generation back to their roots by celebrating Matra pitru Pujan Divas and Tulsi Pujan Divas; by this he ensured that the younger generation should not waste their life and most important time of their life in Valentine Day or Christmas Day like functions which are not actually a festival or having a holy history but they were popularised just to sell, from teddy bear chocolate flowers and not even that; condoms ...

What a pathetic business idea?

The multinational companies which suffered a huge loss because of his teachings have done there every effort to make him behind the bars.

The director, producer and the whole team is appreciated for their time and most important effort to reveal the truth behind this conspiracy.

Enriching Spiritual Experience
dusharma12 December 2016
Dear Utpal Kalal and Team UK Pictures, Kudos for this brilliant effort. The topic of the documentary could not be more timely. I congratulate the young director and his team for excellent cinematography, superb direction, a well crafted script and narration that walk the audience through a divine spiritual experience. It echoes the sentiments of a truth-seeking common man who is mostly bamboozled by the hate monger main stream media houses. A common man who is in search for divine spiritual initiation often gets into trap of these news traders and is made to believe in the concoction of false and fabricated stories. This documentary brilliantly put forth the flip side of the story - the truth which could not reach you. I myself have visited Ahmedabad ashram a number of times and have volunteered for different sewa activities on a couple of occasions. I stand testimony to the fact that the ashram and all its activities are solely dedicated to physical, mental and spiritual upliftment of humankind. This common cause of wholesome upliftment to humankind is very much ingrained into the hearts and minds of each and every inhabitant of the ashram. You are richer in your spiritual understanding every time you come into the company of such divine souls. The documentary has given them voice too so that the uninitiated ones can understand that there is not an iota of truth in what TRP hungry rent-seeking media shows about Pujya Shri Bapuji and ashram activities. I am quite confident that this documentary will prove nightmarish for propaganda doers, news traders and for those whose aim is to spread poison into the minds of common innocent people about Indian culture and our revered saints.

Truth exposing & awaring
dhanashrividhate23 May 2023
This film gives whole information of activities sant Shri Asharamji Bapu's ashram , the view of ashram and guru shishy rituals are truly showing the moral values of guru & adhyatmik environment which I have never seen in any televisions , such a truth showing film must be realese which shows a hidden truth.

Its a true story behind the conspiracies of missionaries , after watching this movie I realised that the faith is the biggest thing , Asharamji Bapu is in jail but his deciples faith shows his innocency & also the true realation of guru shishya.

And this trueness is shown very truly every thing is descripted very well by this movie.

Explain below Warning: Spoilers
Movies that prioritize controversy over entertainment can have negative consequences, especially when it comes to depicting religious figures. Here are key points to consider:

Lack of Respect: Disrespectful portrayal of religious figures can deeply hurt those who hold them sacred, causing feelings of disrespect, anger, and sadness.

Reinforcement of Prejudice: Negative depictions can perpetuate stereotypes and prejudices, fueling intolerance and dividing religious communities.

It is crucial to approach the portrayal of religious figures in movies with sensitivity and respect, considering diverse perspectives and beliefs. It takes more than just an actor like Manoj Bajpai to make a successful film-directors, plot selection, creativity, and cinematography all play vital roles. Disappointingly, this movie failed to deliver, wasting both time and money.

Great movie
ektas-6922223 May 2023
Great eye opening movie 👌👌 many idiots think that Bapuji does some magic but that's not the truth he is a teacher and teaches us about spirituality We are proud to be his disciples and will always be

One need to understand that it's not easy to fool crores of people and make them believe that someone is a God , Bapuji does has many powers which has made people believe him. Funny thing is people who don't know Bapuji, who have never met Bapuji think they know Bapuji more than us lol

I urge everyone must watch this movie and know who Bapuji really is and fake case cannot disturb our faith at any cost Bapuji is great 🙏🙏

True Movie A Must Watch
seemamansingh24 May 2023
The movie is tooo good, tells the reality, truth which the paid media has never shown, how the two girls contradict each other n Truth is triumphant in the end when the other girl brainwashed by corrupt media gets to know the Reality of an innocent saint who has been targeted n since more than a decade kept in jail as a revenge for His good kind selfless services to the society. Lovely picturisation n mind blowing dialogues.

There is exchange of heated words n wisdom of truth overrules everything. The movie has nice casting n cinematography is applaudable.

It is eye opening n makes every audience applaud n accept the fact listen to both sides n not one sided fake stories of paid u misleading media.

Innocent Saint Asaram Bapu
karunanirvane23 May 2023
I saw this documentary film. Before watching this movie I am also thinking negative about Bapu. But now another side of of this case is opened in front of public. Media should not do trial with anyone. Asaram Bapu has done lots of social activities in Adivasi area. But media never ever coveted those news just serves negative in society. This movie is putting questions about Indian law. Why the law is very hard towards Asaram Bapu. At the age of almost 80,. Facing lot of health related problems,. Absence of strong evidence, though indian law put him in jail. Its a big fault in our law system..,
