Sensitive, beautiful story of decent human beings struggling with loneliness. Very good pacing, meaningful story and dialogue, great acting. Refreshing.

Too bad about the subtitles not visible - "Eject Button!"

I think I would have liked the movie, but with subtitles white on white, could only read a few words, gave up.

Lovely, sweet movie. I agree with all the "positive" comments, they are well written and expressed. RE: the "negative" comments: must be from people who have never been lonely or wondered "what if" and who've never wanted or needed or hoped for a second chance.

I had high expectations and came out disappointed. I could not relate to the culture, the environment or the characters. I found it quite boring and the ending is open ended. Felt that only a good ending could save the movie, and it did not.

The loner stood in his dim balcony buffing cigarette and stealing looks to the lively dining room in the building across. His mind was fixed on the daily life-line of folded piece of paper ducked under the chapatti. He stood isolated from strangers in suffocating commuter trains. With the wrong train getting to the right station, the accidental connection weaved intimacy between the cook and the loner leading to probable romance. They didn't share a single audible word, yet through simple recipe, food aroma, and empty-returned lunchbox they were able to share the ultimate, their souls.

Romance in Indian movies is so subtle and artistic. There are no kisses, touches, implied sex, or strong expression of emotions, yet the little crafted symbols are capable of triggering the right tunes. We don't need the language because we have the substance.

I loved this movie. It could have gone on for another 1000 hours and I would
still have watched it. What made this movie so wonderful was how each character broadened the other's horizons and made them realize what was possible and what was missing from their lives. The main character's revenge on his sycophantic and ambitious co-worker was quite humorous in a malicious way. The lunch delivery system was a revelation and all the food made me seriously crave some good Indian food. The only disappointment was the "Lady and the Tiger" ending, but it let you decide what happens. A must watch.

When I checked it out I knew it was a total cat-lady movie, but had hoped for some vicarious travel or cultural insights. Nope.

The film really went NOWHERE and then went BACK and FORTH and BACK... You get the idea. A repetitive snore I'm afraid .

An enjoyable feel-good movie! An "adult" version of " You've Got Mail". I was very impressed with the acting, especially the female lead. Would enjoy seeing another movie with her in it.

I was kind-of expecting a corny love story but was pleasantly surprised with the other subjects touched upon in this charming film.
