THE WORLD BEFORE HER HINDI MOVIE REVIEWS
Ratings:– Review By: Rajeev Masand Site:CNN IBN
There are millions of Indias within our country and Nisha Pahuja’s documentary ‘The World Before Her’ captivates us with this detail. Training her camera on a beauty factory, where contestants go in to be polished so one can become the next Miss India, and then on a Durga Vahini camp where girls are coached by Hindu extremists, Pahuja shows us a disturbing portrait of the modern Indian woman. ‘The World Before Her’ is a powerful documentary and I strongly recommend that you see it – this is the kind of cinema that will leave you shaken and stirred.

With absolute clarity but with a non-judgmental eye, Pahuja presents Indias cultural wars and explores what it means to be an Indian woman. This film is frightening but it is also deeply moving and significant. I urge you to time for it.

Ratings:4/5 Review By: Paloma Sharma Site: Rediff
What makes Nisha Pahuja’s multi-award winning documentary stand out is that it has the courage to ask what nobody else does: who is the Modern Indian Woman? The World Before Her is a poignant, disturbing watch. It makes you wonder which will be the new India — Ruhi’s glamorous €œmodern€ world, or Prachi’s traditional, religious State. And will either of these really be so different from each other?

Ratings:3/5 Review By: Shubhra Gupta Site: Indian Express
The tight focus on these two worlds leaves out the other Indias that may not be confined to the single-minded rigour of either camp, beauty or Durga Vahini. There are not just two Indias, as a doyenne in the beauty business and at one time such a popular TV face, declares. There are many more. What choices do the girls who live in those other Indias have? Do they have any at all?

Ratings:4/5 Review By: Juhi Matta Site: Bookmyshow
The docu-drama tackles a variety of untapped topics in just 90 minutes. In fact, it manages to do this without there ever being a dull moment. The World Before Her follows two fascinating women, who attempt to bring about a change in their own way. It is recommended for anyone looking for an entertaining film that also gets the viewers thinking.
