DO PAISE KI DHOOP (TWO PAISE FOR SUNSHINE)

MIAAC 2009 Film Festival
Director: Deepti Naval
Language: Hindi
My Rating: @ @ @ @ @

Synopsis: Deepti Naval, the acclaimed actress in films such as Mirch Masala (1985) and Firaaq (2008), makes an impressive directorial debut capturing a series of events that can only happen in a teeming metropolis such as Mumbai. The story brings together a struggling gay lyricist, an ageing prostitute (Manisha Koirala) and her 12-year-old son. A film about the mystery of human relationships and the search for happiness, Two Paise for Sunshine is a lovely valentine to Mumbai’s lashing monsoons, changing cityscapes, and the lyrics of songs that have burnished its cinema. Rajat Kapoor is hillarious!!!
