Citylights Review

Cast: Rajkummar Rao, Patraleka, Manav KaulDirection: Hansal MehtaGenre: DramaDuration: 2 hours 7 minutes
Story: Impoverished Deepak takes his wife and child to Mumbai to survive - but is the family lost in big, bad city lights?
Review: So, Citylights is based on Sean Ellis' acclaimed Metro Manila, but it also unlocks the doors to other movies in your mind. This is both a strength and drawback for this remarkable film. Deepak Singh (Rao) loses his village shop to debt and migrates to Mumbai with wife Rakhi (Patraleka) and child Mahi for a new start, ostensibly provided by friend Omkar. But reaching Mumbai, the family never finds Omkar. Instead, Deepak and Rakhi find tricksters, bar-girls, criminals, armoured guards - and a devious plot. Can this little family survive the big city?
