繼2013年叫好叫座的《美味情書》(第10屆,亞洲新導演獎)後,新鋭導演賴舒彼查從美國凱旋歸來,再次在印度拍出另一套動人小品。男主角是一名街頭攝影師,為家人還債而要每天在觀光點替遊客拍照。因為年邁的祖母希望能見到他成家立室,Rafi找了一位年輕客人的照片來充當其未婚妻。但祖母突然要到孟買登門造訪,嚇得Rafi措手不及。為求令祖母安心,他唯有找出相中人Miloni,並游說她扮演其末婚妻。兩個來自不同階層的陌生人,因了解而建立了微妙的關係。有別於一般印度導演,以寫實的手法,譜出清新的人物故事。雖在英美發展不俗,對故鄉仍念念不忘,以本地人的角度,展示孟買的美。

Rafi works as a street photographer in the big city, but his grandmother is desperate to see him get married. To appease her, Rafi sends her a photo of Miloni, one of his customers, and passes her off as his fiancée. What begins as a fake engagement blossoms into a real connection when Rafi’s grandmother asks to meet Miloni. After directing two films in the West, Ritesh Batra (The Lunchbox, The Sense of an Ending) returns to India with this exquisitely crafted love letter to his hometown of Mumbai. Touching on urban loneliness and social inequality in modern India, this is a tender and moving love story with a twist.
