This is a movie I like very much. It's not artistic, but it's very fresh. The soundtrack is just right, the relationship between the characters is simple, and the plot is slowly narrated. Everything is just right, which makes this movie after watching it. There is a faint feeling of dispelling loneliness.
The story starts with a wrong lunch box, but like the saying in the film: the wrong train can often take you to the right place. The wrong lunch box arrives at the right person. The hero and heroine use the lunch box to start communicating with each other. They talk aimlessly and tell: the fan who sustains life, the woman who jumped off the building with her daughter, the indifferent husband, the death His wife, everything is trivial and disorderly, but it is the true appearance of the life they face.
While telling a story, the film also shows us the social style of India, the unique Dabbawalas, the congested traffic, the competitive study and work, and even the erect coffin. People living under high pressure become increasingly numb and exhausted, but the devotion to the food and the concentric people who have the same mind can make the numb soul alive again.
The details of the film are very delicately portrayed, and what moved me the most was probably the scene where they made an appointment to meet: I smelled the years on my body, and sat there staring at the beauty that I didn’t dare to touch. There is also a touch of bright color in the film, the cute and lively male second with a smile all the time, ignoring the pressure, and treating people with sincerity. The difficult orphan life and the high-pressure social environment were resolved in front of him.
This film conveys to us the real connection between people, which is the way for us to regain the meaning of life, just like their encounter and acquaintance in the film, which saved each other and gave each other the courage to change. In the face of the status quo that we are calculating step by step and competing for, I hope we have more courage to take a wrong train, go with the situation, and reach the distance we can reach.
