There was a rocky mountain near his village that people either had to climb across or travel round to gain access to medical care at the nearest town Wazirganj. One day Manjhi’s wife fell while trying to cross the mountain, after which Manjhi decided to carve a road through it. When he started hammering the hill people called him a lunatic but that only steeled his resolve further.

Manjhi The Mountain Man Review: Star Performance
Nawazuddin Siddiqui:
Nawazuddin Siddiqui owns the role of Manjhi. He literally lives through this role and his brilliant act makes this film a compelling watch. There are two heroes of this film – one is the script and second is Nawaz by all means. His hard-work and efforts exemplify what a fine actor he is!
Radhika Apte:
Radhika Apte as Phaguniya does not have much of a screen time but she puts up a good show. Her efforts at learning the Bihari twang seem genuine. She seems to be the new blue eyes girl of art cinema.
Tigmanshu Dhulia:
Tigmanshu Dhulia plays the character of Mukhiya which is reminiscent of his act as Ramadheer Singh from Gangs Of Wasseypur.
Positive (Plus) Points:
- Very inspiring story for today’s generation
- Nawazudduin’s performance is the major highlight
- Very good plot
- Background score soulful
Negative (Minus) Points:
- Slow first half of the movie
- Few scenes could have been edited
