    In Manto's mould

    Don't expect the movie to reach anywhere... its close to 'slice of life'. Watch it instead for the characters, the poetry and the realism. It focuses on a demographic we associate with tough life, but shows how they find their joys and sorrows just like we do ours. Very humane! Sadiya, Surekha, Irrfan... all excel in their roles. And the dilapidated South Mumbai was seldom captured so beautifully.
