Description A poor chaiwallah (tea seller) has his life changed forever when a young girl is abandoned at a busy railway station and brings the place to a standstill with her singing. The contradictions of modern india with its iPhones and ancient gods come alive in this outrageously funny and heartbreakingly beautiful romantic thriller.
