It was recognized worldwide, received not only critics thumbs up but also, numerous accolades in few international film festivals .was premiered and screened in 2009...but it took 10 years to make it available to Indian audience...damn SRK stereotype style Commendable performances by its protagonists, Rajit Kapur and Manisha Koirala...superb directorial debut by Dipti Naval..

After ignoring for many weeks, watched it today. Powerful script, beautiful songs and great performance by Rajit Kapoor and Manisha Koirala.

Be good. Be open. Be accepting.

Loved all the old songs.

Amazing movie, with soulful music -- the movie feels like an era of art has returned. Worth a watch, very mindful and consciously made film with entertainment and life's comedic artwork.Movie bring about the intent of soul based relationship with stranger and how it can transpire in to empathy, love and just pure joy of life. Characters are well defined, interesting casting and deep storytelling.This feels like older movies from the era of Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Raj Kapoor, classic in look and feel. Visually make monsoon of Mumbai just feel joyful. Early music from some of the best talent in Bollywood.

It has done rounds of at least 10 film festivals including preview release at Cannes, it needs to be watched by all generations to feel love and kindness.

This movie is a decade old, yet talks about the things we still consider taboo in 2019. It's beautiful. Seeing strangers with "differences" get together and live their life is pleasing. Thanks Netflix for adding such a beautiful film which was unknown to me all this time.

This is a decade old movie which was relatively unknown until it recently (sept 2019) got released on Netflix India. The lead pair of Rajit Kapur and Manish Koirala made me watch it over a weekend but left me quite underwhelmed.

Deepti Naval has been a good actress and moreover has acted in some wonderful movies. But her directorial venture doesn't match it up. The whole idea of making this movie appears very cliched. To make a "meaningful movie", the standard recipe is followed: story should be about a love song to life; make one character gay, another prostitute, and another quadriplegic; add some old hindi song nostalgia; some lamenting about decadence of art due to commercialization; and so on. Nothing wrong with any of these ingredients as long as they coherently gel with each other and create a good narrative. Unfortunately, the script and direction fails to achieve any such coherence in this case. Many of the artifacts seem affected. You have a random balloon filled auto-rickshaw appearing every now and then, the lead pair abruptly starts to sing old songs, then there is this nth instance of someone feeling the raindrops through a window. These are by no mean badly done in the movie but there is nothing new in them which has not been done before. From acting perspective, Manisha Koirala is little inconsistent in her act especially if you set high expectation standard to being with. Others including Rajit Kapur are okay, mostly because the direction and script do not demand much. With character of Kapur being a poet, one would expect some good poetry and lyrics thrown in (especially with so many good lyricists in the credit roll). But there is just one song which is repeated all through the movie and may stick to your memory. Overall, strictly an average movie which you may not regret watching. But, on the other side, you won't miss much if you skip it.

The movie deals with the lifestyle and emotions of characters rather than an intrinsic plot. It is quite slow but engaging. There are only 3 characters throughout the film and the movie gears up as the child shows improvement under the upbringing of Debu. The cinematography was brilliant and there are some symbols like the auto with full of yellow balloons. Overall, its a good watch if you have the patience.
