Synopsis Two of India’s hottest actors star in this heartwarming drama that will have foodies salivating. When a housewife suspects her husband of infidelity she starts sending incredible home-cooked meals to his work via Mumbai’s famous food delivery network of white-jacketed ‘dabbawallas’. But when her sumptuous looking tiffin boxes mistakenly reach the desk of a middle-aged curmudgeon(Khan), his thank you note sparks an unlikely relationship. Think 84 Charing Cross Road with better food and, according to The New York Times, “more than a touch of Ernst Lubitsch.”
