SYNOPSIS:
On the day of Gandhi Jayanti, when meat sale is prohibited nationwide, an 11-year-old girl goes on a quirky adventure in pursuit of a forbidden chicken curry.
While Abhilash Shetty’s comedy-drama can charm audiences as a family-friendly film about a young girl’s quest for a seemingly simple dish, the film is also a subtle satire that gently exposes hypocrisy on issues surrounding tradition, law and commerce in contemporary India. More than simply questioning the need for tradition, it asks whether stubbornly sticking to old ways makes sense when they so often contradict with the realities of modern life.
