SYNOPSIS

Shirin (Farah Khan) and Farhad (Boman Irani) are two over-forty middle aged Parsi people, leading their lives amidst a fast dwindling Parsi community. Self content and enveloped in their daily wordly affairs, they have not had the time to pause and think about love. That is - till they meet each other, what follows is an unconventional love story - quirky and sweet, having its own essence of romance and teaching the world that love has no expiry date.

The toning down is some accomplishment for the King of Extravagance given that he has both - produced and written the film. ...Read full review

Anupama Chopra (Hindustan Times)

Farhad, played by Boman Irani, is a 45 year-old undergarment salesman who still lives with his mother and grandmother he very sweetly describes them as over-loving. His mother, played by Daisy Irani, nags him to eat, drive slowly and of course get married. Echoing her, his extended family helpfully asks: Tera rocket kab udega? Shirin, played by Farah Khan, is a feisty singleton who lives with her comatose father and aunt. ...Read full review
