Talk:Water (2005 film)

Untitled
Wrong Manorama linked. The actress Manorama in this movie is not the Tamil Actress but the Punjabi/Hindi actress from the movies such as Seeta Aur Geeta, Ek Phool Do Mali and many more.

NOT MENTIONED: Plagiarism case against Deepa Mehta by Sunil Gangopadhyay from his book 1985 Sahitya Akademi Award Sei Samaya:

2006 Film
Yahoo movies mentions Water is a 2006 film. Hence, I have corrected it from 05 to 06. Sbohra 07:53, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

The film premiered at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival and was released across Canada in November of that year.

Move Page
This page should be moved to Water (2006 film) since there is a 1985 film with the same name. --Nehrams2020 07:23, 3 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I moved the page to Water (2005 film) - the film was originally released in 2005 which is also the date given by IMDB . It was released nationally in the U.S. in 2006 (although it played in film festivals in 2005) which may be why it is listed elsewhere as 2006. It makes the most sense to list it according to its original release date. -Classicfilms 05:42, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

"he/him" problem
In the beginning of the following sentence, do you think the use of him is correct?

It is him who makes Shakuntala aware of her situation, eventually giving her the necessary intellectual input to separate true faith from the hypocrisy and superstition that makes her and the other widows' lives a misery.

As far as my knowledge of English grammar is concerned, it should be he. If it is a mistake, it should be incorporated into the main article as well. --Sunil (talk) 23:04, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Chuiya vs Neha
At least in the hindi version, this transition from Chuiya to Neha is not depicted. Someone please corroborate the source of this assertion.
