  • The Lunchbox (2013) an NFDC Film Krrish 3 (2013)
    The Lunchbox (2013) an NFDC Film Hindi - 104 min - Drama | Romance "Dabba" (original title) Director: Ritesh Batra The Dabbawalas (lunchbox service) of Mumbai deliver 170’000 lunchboxes every day and according to a Harvard study, only one in a million ever goes astray. This movie is the story of that one mistaken delivery which connects a young housewife Ila to a lonely widower Saajan in the dusk of his life as they build a fantasy world together through notes in the lunchbox…. Both find a dream to hold on to. Ila begins a fantastical affair with a mystery suitor, pouring her heart into cooking meals for him. Saajan looks forward to lunch box deliveries from a mystery woman every day. As the lunchbox goes back and forth, this fantasy becomes so elaborate that it threatens to overwhelm their reality. The film is the story of the life of which we dream versus the life we live in, and of the courage it takes to turn out fantasies into reality. The film was released in February 2014 in the US and the New York Times described it as “A perfect balance of tact and sentimentality”. Cast: Irrfan Khan, Nimrat Kaur, Nawazuddin Siddiqui Krrish 3 (2013) Hindi - 152 min - Action | Sci-Fi Director: Rakesh Roshan Krishna aka Krrish is living a happy married life in India with his wife Priya and scientist dad Rohit, while helping the masses with his superpowers and struggling to keep a steady job. In another part of the world, an evil handicapped man named Kaal has used his DNA to generate a team of human-animal mutants, particularly the ruthless chameleon mutant Kaya who can assume any form she wants.
