Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: What this rare disorder, shown in ... (The Indian Express)

With advancements in cardiac and respiratory care, life expectancy of DMD patients has increased to the 30s and 40s now, says Dr Akhilesh Yadav, ...

But with advancements in the field of cardiac and respiratory care, life expectancy has increased and many young adults with DMD are able to follow a normal life. A carrier mother’s son has a 50 per cent possibility of inheriting the defective gene from her while the daughter of a carrier mother has a 50 per cent chance of carrying the gene in two healthy copies and a 50 per cent chance of becoming a carrier herself. There are also specialised blood tests that assess the presence and concentrations of certain proteins in muscle. Typically, legs and the lower external muscles are affected before the arms and the upper external muscles. Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disorder that is characterised by growing muscle degeneration and weakness due to changes in a protein found in the body called Dystrophin, which helps in maintaining healthy muscle cells. The disorder attacks the proximal muscles (muscles closer to the core) of the body first, later moving towards the distal limb muscles (those close to the extremities).

Salaam Venky Review: Luminously Led By Kajol, The Film Does Not ... (NDTV)

Cast: Kajol, Vishal Jethwa, Rahul Bose, Rajeev Khandelwal, Aahana Kumra, Prakash Raj, Priya Mani and Aamir Khan. Director: Revathy.

Factored into the tale of impending doom is a love story and a family drama that play out parallel to each other. It is hard to say if Salaam Venky will strike a chord with the general public with a real-life story that made an up-and-coming chess star Venkatesh Kolavennu a legal cause celebre about a couple of decades ago. Salaam Venky is certainly not in the same league as Anand as a film about a terminally ill man, but it does have the meat to be a substantial addition to the canon. No matter how many of its passages might appear condensable, if not entirely expendable, the film as a whole makes its point firmly, clearly and with a lot of heart The result is a tale of a bitter personal and legal battle that can keep the audience invested in the way it unfolds and concludes. The film succeeds in pulling back from the brink when, on a couple of occasions, it veers close to courting a hint of excess.

Salaam Venky Movie Review: Kajol & Vishal Jethwa Starrer Is ... (koimoi)

Salaam Venky Movie Review: a movie shaped to make you feel emotions to the max but also limited to just that. Read our review.

While the movie is shaped and structured to make one cry, it kind of enters the escapist zone even when it is a real-life story. The background music tries to manipulate the viewer to an extent that it tries to force-feed feelings. Revathy is a prolific actor who tries and includes intricate details in her performances. Like there is a cameo by Aamir Khan, much of it cannot be really written about considering it would be a spoiler, but nothing about it lands too well to hit hard when you see his purpose in the larger scheme of things. The cameos in Salaam Venky are worth the while. A toned down for good performance, she plays Sujata with all the honesty and motherly instincts. A mother and her anguish about not being able to save the son she fought the world for. The subject that someone is already counting their last days and in them demands the death of dignity and peace, there is already immense grief and pain enough to move one even with a summary. Kajol has a love relationship with lens and there is no way she can look bad in any frame. Euthanasia, the will to die, is a topic that is the trickiest mine for filmmakers who dare to tell a balanced story about grief. So the task at hand here for a filmmaker is not to make the audience weep, but also to console them to understand the things lying between the lines. Salaam Venky equipped by director Revathy, with screenplay writer Sameer Arora and additional screenplay and dialogues by Kausar Munir, is based on an achingly moving true story of a boy who tried to fulfill his dying wish of donating his organs to people in need because he was about to die any day.

'Salaam Venky' Review: Despite Memorable Performances, an ... (The Quint)

'Salaam Venky', starring Vishal Jethwa and Kajol, is the story of a 24-year-old fighting a degenerative disease with his mother by his side.

The mother-son duo’s appeal for euthanasia has reached the court of law and has sparked a national conversation. Salaam Venky has the emotions dialed up to a 100 but the music by Mithoon doesn’t do it any favours. Sanjay Leela Bhansali had previously touched upon the same in the Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai-starrer Guzaarish but the emotional tonality of the film was lost to its aesthetic. Some of the dialogues come off corny instead of being heartfelt and that undercuts the already heavily saturated tone a lot. A topic like this and the cast we’re presented with would’ve benefited from a more restrained and mature screenplay. By the time the audience meets Venky, even his doctor (Rajeev Khandelwal) has declared that his chances of survival are slim; now all that remains is Venky’s final wish and Sujata’s reluctance to fulfill it.

'Salaam Venky' movie review: Kajol struggles to keep this heavily ... (The Hindu)

Despite some heart-wrenching moments and the presence of a superb cast of actors, director Revathy leans too much on melodrama to tell a difficult story.

This film is from Revathy, a director who gave us Mitr, My Friend,Phir Milenge, a segment in the Malayalam film Kerala Cafe, among others. In this context, one can’t help but think of Shonali Bose’s The Sky is Pink, inspired by the true story of 18-year-old Aisha Chaudhary who dies of pulmonary fibrosis. In one of the last scenes, when Venky asks Sujatha to sing for him, one expects Kajol to hum a song which seems fitting given the situation. The Venky of the film is a happy, Bollywood-loving, chess-playing youngster who has a film dialogue for every occasion. A young person battling a terminal disease is heart-wrenching, but the director seems intent on not letting us forget the fact. The film is based on Shrikanth Murthy’s The Last Hurrah, inspired by the real-life story of chess player Kolavennu Venkatesh who, helped by his mother K Sujatha, petitioned for euthanasia so that he could donate his organs.

Salaam Venky is too curated and dramatic to elicit authentic ... (Telegraph India)

Despite a stellar Kajol, film fails to establish mark in audience's heart and mind.

And when the media and the judiciary angle comes in post interval, it only gives Salaam Venky the license to go full-on melodramatic. Sujata’s years of pain and the fear of impending loss are mirrored perfectly in Kajol’s eyes. For close to two decades ago, the actor-director treated a similar theme with far more nuance and subtlety in Phir Milenge. There is little that is organic in Salaam Venky. The inherent nature of the subject presents the maker the canvas to go all out. Salaam Venky is conflicted in portraying death as pretty and romantic or devastating and life-changing (for the ones left behind).
