Saw Paathshala...did not like it much...the subject matter is good...but somehow...did not have an impact as it could have had (like a typical hindi movie has)......seemed like they had just set up background information for the film to begin and it suddenly ended....i was not sure if it was intermission or the end ...ha ha ha...

more like a documentary..??

Very uninspiring movie.
Seems like a low-budget venture and the only thing holding it together was Nana Patekar's performance - and that was ordinary to say the least.
I got the impression that they started out trying to make a point and had some sort of message in mind, but somewhere along the way, they run out of inspiration and steam.
Or maybe they just ran out of money or the script writer quit or whatever.
