In an effort to cheer up his grandson, Grandfather Rasim remembers the legendary game “Wishbone” which starts a series of wish fulfillments. At first, Rasim's wife Sufia doesn't like what's happening, but gradually the game begins to transform the lives and aspirations of the entire family and the entire village in the most incredible way.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
