2019 Film Festival
film synopsis
Gentler and more romantic than his previous films (Gangs of Wasseypur; The Brawler) Anurag Kashyap, a festival favorite, examines dating among Indian middle-class, educated young people with a realism unusual in a Bollywood love triangle. With his dyed blue hair, the impulsive DJ running across rooftops to be with Rumi is just the right type to attract this free-spirited girl with runaway hormones. She might be a good girl, but deep down she needs the excitement of this volcanic relationship, and she is determined to love with reckless abandon. But is this wild DJ husband material? And when her traditional Punjabi family brings in a carefully chosen, qualified, sedate suitor, will she be able to choose between the exciting DJ and the stable man who is ready to settle down? With stunning performances, this modern love story laced with warmth and humor will sweep viewers off their feet.
