He is a Michelin-star chef, a judge on MasterChef, cookbook writer and a humanitarian. He is also a writer and this movie is based on his book by the same name. This is Vikas Khanna's directorial debut. A 60+-year old widow, a 9-year old untouchable girl and a transgender..the movie raises the questions about the retrogression that prevail in the most religious city that has a rich culture and history.. I have not read the book but at times it does seem to deviate from its focus... the fragments and scenes do ooze the essence of the storytelling but still do not seemingly fit well into the frames, there are few repetitive and redundant sequences too... However, commendable and subtle performances by Nina Gupta and Aqsa Siddiqui not only manage to keep it afloat but also help upraise ...it was named for academy award ... a good watch..
