Initial comments

• "set amidst the real-life Bhopal disaster " - I would lose the 'life' part as it sounds a bit informal in a way!

Done.

• "A few organisations fighting for the rights of the victims of the tragedy blamed the film for presenting the facts in a distorted manner" - this part can be moved to the third paragraph on the critical response

Moved.

• The lead needs to be expanded a little to summarise the article better - I would just expand the third paragraph as it does not mention enough on the reception of the film. Did it ever receive negativity from anyone?

Expanded.

• Ravi Kumar is linked twice in the infobox (but not in the lead) and also the link leads to a disambiguation page - needs to be fixed

Fixed.

• "He gets a job in the plant as a laborer" - labourer?

Changed.

• "Dilip senses the danger and visits the plant, realizing" - realising? I think?

Changed.

• "Warren Anderson, the CEO of Union Carbide" - should be linked for reference

Linked.

• "Anderson was declared a fugitive" - declared by whom? Or does the film portray him as this?

Clarified.

• "This film is based on the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, considered the deadliest and also one of the world's worst industrial disaster" - why is this here in the release section if it already tells us in the lead?

Moved to the "Production" section.

• I would rename the Reviews section to "Reception", as per standard for all film/video game/music articles

Changed.

References

• No dead links

On hold

The prose is pretty solid, and the other stuff was relatively minor. I think it's just the short lead that is holding this back, so if you could address all that will be great. I'll leave this on hold for the standard seven days, I'm sure you can handle it! ☯ Jaguar ☯ 17:14, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Jaguar: I have expanded the lead and addressed all of the above points. Thanks.--Skr15081997 (talk) 11:55, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, skr, looks like this is good to go. ☯ Jaguar ☯ 18:09, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
