Complete Review:

Aligarh is the story of a 64 year old professor of Aligarh University named Siras and he teaches Marathi. Manoj Bajpai plays the role of siras who interested in homosexual acts. His colleagues caught and expose him while he doing sex with another man. Then he suspended from university.

Then Deepu (Rajkumar Rao) backed him and helped him to fight against the rights of third gender.

Later on, deepu and siras roles express the humanity of third gender and what difficulties they are facing in society and how the normal people abuses the homosexuals.

Manoj bajpai again come up with a daring script after 'Gangs of Wasseypur' and gave the best performance of his career.

The film mainly touches the sensitive issues in the society and how the gays facing problems in their day to day life. Hansal element to add upon.

Even though, Hansal did a research to turn the film as talk of the bollywood town. But the audience need to be patient while watching the movie and a slow narration.
