“The sad reality is that despite government’s noble, good intended efforts, caste discrimination still exists, especially in rural India. It has also to be said that School education in India is a major site of class and caste struggle – where the poor from marginalized social categories inch towards a future of justice, prosperity and equity, with great difficulty.  How we shape our educational system is the key to how fast we can emerge as a modern, developed nation” Albe  said before the film screening.

Popular Malyalam lyricst Mradula Devi said “I had goosebumps watching the film. It’s an eye opener. Every Indian must watch the film, which talks highly about equality in Education, irrespective of caste and religion.”
