Manthan - Movie

1976. Shyam Benegal's award-winning movie which was crowdfunded by 50,000 farmers who contributed Rs. 2 each is the story of India's and  Verghese Kurien's White Flood Revolution and the creation of AMUL. Vijay Tendulkar, Shyam Benegal and Kurien wrote the script and the film stars Girish Karnad, Naseeruddin Shah, Anant Nag, Smita Patil, Amrish Puri, Kulbushan Karbhanda, Mohan Agashe. I'm so glad I found it on YouTube. Now plan to watch 'Ankur' and 'Garam Hawa'.
