One of the best documentaries ever made !!!

Going by so much outrage against it in India and subsequent banning of this documentary by the Indian govt., I started watching this expecting to see something offensive about the brutal gang rape incident or something offensive against the country.

But as it went on, I was fully mesmerized by complete portrayal of truth and reality encompassing most relevant and notable people. This is one of the most terrific and marvelous pieces of documentary ever created.

It really amazes me how BBC comes out with such realistic works that even the local media houses fail to capture.

The best part of the whole documentary is the true depiction of one of the victims and the way director captured him with zoomed visuals focusing on his body movements and portraying the true mindset of a criminal.

I hope this documentary stays on the internet so that willing Indian adult citizens can watch it.

Once again, there is nothing offensive in this documentary against the victim, her family or to the country. It is just a realistic piece of work that Indian govt. should support than to ban it. I can't understand that if parents of the victim supported this documentary to such an extent than why should the govt. be so worried about.

Hats off and salute to Leslee Udwin and her team. Kudos to the BBC !
