Tathastu (English: So be it) is a 2006 Indian Hindi film directed by Anubhav Sinha. It is based on the American film John Q.[1]
They take him to the nearest hospital in Bandra, where Doctors Nita and Sen inform them that their son is dying and will not survive unless he receives a heart transplant, the cost of which is 15 lakhs rupees. A heart is available for transplant but the hospital will only perform the surgery on receipt of the money. A desperate Ravi turns to his insurance company, which declines to renew his policy citing an obscure clause; his employer, with whom he has worked for over 11 years, refuses to sanction above Rs.75000/-.
When nothing works out and Dr. Sen informs Ravi that his son will soon be discharged and will probably die soon after, he gets a gun, holds 30 people hostage in the hospital until the doctor agrees to operate on his son. DCP Rane is assigned to this matter and his orders are to kill Ravi and end this drama. Meanwhile the hostages realize how good a man Ravi is when he lets a pregnant woman deliver with full medical care, helps a woman facing domestic abuse as well as an elderly gentleman whose son values money more than his father. Outside, he becomes a dark hero when the media reports that he is doing it to save his son, with a huge crowd gathering in his support.
But Ravi persists and is finally told that Gaurav will soon be operated upon. Relieved, Ravi decides to release all the hostages. He then sees that while a surgery is taking place, it is of an elderly politician (the President of the ruling political party, Narayan Swami), rather than his son. In desperation, he decides to end his life and give his heart to his son. After meeting his son for a few moments, he walks out with the hostages (who have all decided to support him) and his wife and proclaims to the world that he will end his life and give his heart to his son.
As he is about to shoot himself, the deputy leader of the ruling political party comes and asks him to listen to him. He informs him he has spoken to the President who has decided to forgo his life since he loves children, requesting that the heart be given to the child. He assures Ravi that it is true and also that the party will take care of all the expenses of the operation. The entire crowd applauds the deputy leader and Ravi lowers his gun. When the deputy leader's assistant comes to him and inquires (in a whisper) urgently that what will happen to the President and that the President said no such thing, the deputy leader tells him that this is politics. If they had operated and saved the President's life, then this entire crowd who is pro-Ravi would have thrown them out of power. Now by sacrificing the President, they have gained huge popular support and will win the next elections.
Ravi is arrested and taken to court. The judge takes a very lenient view of the situation based on the hostages' evidence and sentences Ravi to a light sentence of six months. DCP Rane leads the applause from the entire court as Ravi looks on. The film ends with Gaurav playing cricket and his parents watching him.

Never push a father to the edge...
This adaptation of the
2002 Denzel Washington starrer 'John Q' stands above the average fare
doled out in 2006. Tackling the serious issue of health care red tape,
this movie has its moments. Ravi Rajput(Dutt) is a doting middle-class
father of a cute 7 year old(Master Pathak).When the son takes ill in a
heart complication, Ravi has to raise 15 lac rupees for the heart
transplant operation in order to save his son's life. But due to callous
hospital administration who want the money upfront and an uncaring
health insurance company, Ravi has reached his wit's end. Ia a fit of
rage, he takes the hospital under siege adamant to save his son's life.
Will he succeed? Or will the machinations of bureaucracy destroy an
innocent child's life? Without giving anything away, I will say that
this movie manages to move you. Sanjay Dutt delivers a knockout
performance-- a gritty and realistic portrayal of a simple, blue collar
worker who loves his son very much; and will do anything to keep him
alive. The supporting cast barring a terrible Amisha Patel as Ravi's
wife is competent. Jaya Pradha in a fine comeback shows that she's
indeed a capable performer. Gulshan Grover also does a good job as the
DCP who has to take Ravi down. The music of the film is simple but
powerful; and conveys the mood of the film very well. Director Anubhav
Sinha leaves out the flashy technique and does a fine job letting the
film flow. I wouldn't be surprised if Dutt is in the reckoning for a
Best Actor statuette this year. He is entirely believable as the hapless
father who's trapped in a situation he doesn't want,but is left with no
choice.He has you rooting for his Ravi Rajput,even though you know that
he has taken the law into his own hands. If you are fed up of the trash
that's coming out in the name of cinema these days, rent 'Tathastu'. At
just under 2 hours, it is strong enough to hold your attention for the
entire duration and will not leave you disappointed. Highly recommended.
