This one gave me goosebumps and shivers while watching and hats off to Mr Arup Roy for making such a brilliant movie. Based on a true story the movie mixed Football and Indian freedom movement which leaves spell bound. The story is about Mohun Bagan( one of the leading football club in India) who defeated East Yorkshire Regiment in the IFA  Shield 100 years ago in 1911. The movie starts with Mohun Bagan wining the semi-finals against Middlessex and geting ready for the finals and shows its taffect on various group of people in Bengal as well as the individual players who went bare footed against a well equipped british team. Simply brilliant for anyone who loves cinema at its best.
