Innocent young love is put on a collision course with the messy reality of budding adulthood in Shlok Sharma's unforgettable feature debut. Young student Kamal is infatuated with his 15-year-old classmate Sandhya, and together with his best friend Mintu devises countless imaginative schemes to win her affection. But Sandhya has a troubling infatuation of her own: she is carrying on an affair with her teacher, Shyam (another masterful performance by Nawazuddin Siddiqui). When the two young boys catch on to this illicit arrangement, events are set into motion that could lead to tragedy for all involved.
Shlok Sharma deftly alternates the tone of his film between lighthearted, youthful adventure and more sobering, truthful moments. Sharply aware of the fact that childhood longings rarely come to fruition, Sharma watches sympathetically as each of his four central characters stumble and falter in their attempts to hold onto a desire they'd be better off forgetting, while the audience braces for impact when the inevitable crash comes.
Gala tickets include a reception at the IFFLA Lounge prior to the screening, and the Los Angeles red-carpet premiere of the film followed by an exclusive dinner reception at the Nirvana-Bombay Palace.
