A satire on inflation-hit middle-class Indian family from a small city in North India. The story revolves around our protagonist who is struggling to survive in this spiraling inflation and how he comes up with a solution to battle it, only to find himself in an even bigger mess due to their innocence and naivety.

One of the best movie. A simple with full of comedy punch and shows the reality which a low class middle family faces because of inflation. All actors are great . Sanjay sharma far ahead than salma khan in terms of acting.

The film was a pleasant break from the usual movie plots.The film revolves around inflation and all its consequences that hit an ordinary family without letting such a serious topic weigh on the viewer. There was enough humour to make it an enjoyable film.The only downfall that really ruined the film for me was the part of Gopal, which seemed out of place in such a film. I can understand that perhaps a film based only on inflation could be heavy going and that adding a love story would help it flow more easily. However, the actor himself had no screen presence and his character was only that of a spineless, useless man, too selfish to realize the struggles his family is facing.Despite all this, I highly recommend giving Saare jahaan se mehnga a watch as it presents a change from many films out there!

This movie is set in small town India and is all about the strange things people do to overcome the cost of living. It touches upon some rather serious issues, such as, hoarding, black marketeering, love marriages, among others but the touch is light as this is a comedy drama.This is not Bollywood but it is not Bengali Art House Cinema either. The narrative is straightforward and the acting is believable. This is the first review I have written on this site and I did so because I did not want anyone to miss out on a film that should be more widely known. This is a comedy drama of some merit.

Mainstream Bollywood movies suck for sure. But this low budget comedy- drama taking on the ever-increasing prices of daily commodities in India, specifically Haryana is a must-watch.Sanjai Mishra as the lead is amazing with him being a breadwinner of a middle-class family. His wife runs a salon while his brother is in love with a grocery-shop owner's daughter. The plot moves up as the family takes a loan under the disguise of opening a grocery store. Things fall apart when the loan inspector arrives. Now, what they do of the money & how they tackle the mounting consequences is a wonderful comic show & I enjoyed it.The message that shoots up is essential & with all its glory of cinema- watching, I rate it 7/10.BOTTOM LINE: Go for it, because it has good cast, good humor, good story & a wonderful message - food for thought!Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YESLanguage: No <> Alcohol: No <> Smoking: Mild <> Sex, Nudity or Mouth-Kiss: No <> Violence: Very Mild <> Gore: No
