Tinsel
town
celebrities
like
Javed
Akhtar,
Shabana
Azmi
and
Rajkumar
Rao
among
others
have
lauded
Neeraj
Ghaywan's
directorial
"Masaan" and
have
called
it
a
beautiful,
great
and
outstanding
film.
Masaan,
which
won
two
prestigious
awards
at
the
Cannes
International
Film
Festival
in
May,
will
hit
the
Indian
screens
only
on

Produced

Entertainment,
Masaan
stars
Sanjay
Mishra
and
Richa
Chadha
in
the
lead
along
with
newcomers
Shweta
Tripathi
and
Vicky
Kaushal.
A
special
screening
of
the
film
was
organised
in
Mumbai
on
Tuesday.
The
film's
story
revolves
around
four
lives
which
intersect
along
the
Ganga
river:
a
low-caste
boy
falling
hopelessly
in
love,
a
daughter
ridden
with
guilt
of
a
sexual
encounter
ending
in
a
tragedy,
a
hapless
father
with
fading
morality,
and
a
spirited
child
yearning
for
a
family,
long
to
escape
the
moral
constructs
of
a
small
town.
Here's
what
the
celebrities
had
to
say
about
the
film:
Javed
Akhtar:
Saw
"Masaan".
A
film
that
was
given
two
awards
at
Cannes
is
undoubtedly
a
great
movie.
Congratulations
team
Masaan.
