Watch Decoding Deepak For Free

I love this movie so much

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Why does an adult child want to play the blame game, and use Deepak Chopra's celebrity status to put the attention on himself? He is an adult now, and I am not interested in a totally subjective documentary that pours anger and rage on Deepak Chopra, his father, who might have been more detached than he should have been. We bring our children into the world, and we do the best we can. I suggest that his son read Kahil Gibran's "On Children." It was embarrassing to see a talented artist expend his talents and energy, and air the family laundry. I did not see Gotham Chopra telling the truth. I saw a privileged young man who is spoiled and dumping on his dad. Gotham needs to focus on himself as an artist, and the abundance in his life. We are all human and have faults, and parents do the best that they can do based on their past. This film did not interest me. It may interest an audience who wants the latest dirt on a celebrity. I am not interested in gossip on Deepak Chopra. Gotham Chopra has to stop living through his dad. He used his art as a vendetta against his dad. If Gotham chose to be The Prodigal Son that was his choice and had nothing to do with what his father did to him. From a Recovered Adult Child of Alcoholics

This was a strange movie. One expects to understand why Deepak Chopra, certainly an influential author and thinker, came to be what he is. Instead we are promised a personal view of the man, intriguing enough. This is accomplished through the lens of a son and a family that appear resentful of the fact that Chopra's career takes all of his time and attention. It reminded me of the many stories about Picasso's family and how they suffered under the glare of his ambitious and driven desire to paint. The problem is that Gotham Chopra is, occasionally, simply mean. Gotham Chopra claims the father is driven to be relevant, no matter what. However, it is also appears here that Gotham desires prominence as well, through a tell-all film about the father he does not understand and whom he wishes to diminish. It is disturbing to confirm that men driven by a passion for art, science, etc., often cannot produce successful families, but it is even more disturbing to see the lack of respect and compassion of the son for the father. We are expected to conclude that the son's actions are justified by the purported neglect of the father.However, Deepak Chopra must have acquiesced with the production and publication of this film, for the sake of the son, even though it aims to demolish his professional image. By the way, in this regard, it is so one-sided, it fails. Even in the casual comments, Deepak Chopra remains coherent with his philosophy of life. Gotham Chopra should take distance from the father, and start his own road. He seems like a gifted man. He does not need his father, one way or another.

I watched this movie so I could learn about the spiritual guru and how he became who he became. I didn't read any of his books, and was looking forward to the movie to provide a general background of how the books came into being and how Deepak has garnered the spiritual following that he has now. The movie addresses none of these issues. Instead, it makes Deepak Chopra look sheepish.It's as if Gotham wanted to vent out at his dad through this movie. There are scenes with Deepak snoring, scratching his bum and being publicly ridiculed by the media for some inadvertent comments he made. Deepak looked stressed out in every screen of the film, not a hallmark of the composure we've come to expect of the spiritual guru. I don't think Deepak was informed of the purpose of the film to start with, and I don't think Gotham ever had a purpose in mind while making it. Gotham glazes over the spiritual understanding of his father, and instead captures the inane quirks. The result is an absolutely pointless mockery of his father.I wish another sensible set of filmmakers team up to capture the genius of Deepak Chopra. The beginning of the movie hints about Gotham being handed the keys to Deepak's empire, the thought of it now scares me.

This truly a beautiful movie depicting all human aspects of a contemporary guru. It is a great pleasure to see and to listen to Dr.Chopra no matter where he is, no matter what he is doing. And this movie is truly an honest and a modest film depicting all human side of Dr.Chopra. I was also very curious about his journey to Thailand and the time he spent with the monks. Now my curiosity has been satisfied. How even an enlightened guru like Chopra can still learn new things from such experiences like these, worth seeing. Highly recommended.In fact some parts are very funny too.This is a not only a great opportunity to get to know more about Dr.Choora but also how he is living his own truth within himself. In my opinion his integrity is also beyond any words of praise. He knows the truth, he tells about it but more importantly he lives it. His life alone may be a lesson for many.
