startling banals

Titli - Bong movie(of course with subtitles!) by Rituparna Ghosh - set in Darjeeling(God scenery) starring Aparna Sen and Konkona Sen( a 11-12th types girl Titli) as a mother-daughter duo on their way to airport to pick up Titli's dad who is returning from a business trip to Bombay. They give a lift to a Bollywood actor whose car has broken down (Rohit Roy - played by Mithun) - Titli is a huge fan of his and is very excited to meet him. But she is unaware that he was her mom's lover. The story unfolds in a very natural and smooth way without any unnecessary and fancy gimmicks. The characters seem real-life and non-artificial and un-caricatured. A very good movie, watch it.
