En réalité, la Lunchbox a été remise accidentellement à Saajan, un homme solitaire, proche de la retraite. Le soir, Ila attend de son mari des compliments qui ne viennent pas.
Elle confie ensuite sa lunchbox au gigantesque service de livraison qui dessert toutes les entreprises de Bombay. Overview : Ila, une jeune femme délaissée par son mari, se met en quatre pour tenter de le reconquérir en lui préparant un savoureux déjeuner.
While the film never expressly treats Saajan and Ila as destined to be together or even right for each other it does feel open to the possibilities, the idea that kindred spirits exist regardless of place, time and consequences.Company : UTV Motion Pictures, Sikhya Entertainment, DAR Motion Pictures, Dharma ProductionsĬast : Irrfan Khan, Nimrat Kaur, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Lillete Dubey, Nakul Vaid, Bharati Achrekar, Yashvi Punneet Nagar, Denzil Smith, Shruti Bapna, Nasir Khan Khan is excellent as Saajan and his business like demeanour slips away nicely throughout the film adding more layers to his at first narrow minded character. While the duo’s noticable age gap does seem odd and hard to navigate it actually transforms the film into a much more emotional and potent drama as it traverses the many issues between these two very different people as they attempt to reach the same page as each of them pushes through their various strifes. Together the two deal with their problems and find solace. When Ila (Nimrat Kaur) sends her food to her husband it is misdirected and sent to Saajan and the two start sending each other letters as they struggle with their own problems such as life after work and a distant husband. The film follows Saajan (Irrfan Khan), a man who is on the verge of retirement but when he is one day given a lunch box containing food meant for someone else it starts a relationship he never thought he would have. What I found however is stories like this carry across oceans and continents as love and friendship are at their core very human feelings and they all transfer with The Lunchbox being a testament to that fact. It’s hard to dispel the notion that parts of foreign cinema will be confusing and undecipherable to some, it’s even harder to dispel those ideas in your own head and with The Lunchbox I went in expecting a film that would have a different idea of the modern romance thanks to its foreign setting. In that regard the film is about hope and how even the most routine existence can be transformed by a hope for something better. The exchange of notes enlivens both Saajan and Ila because they both realise that another life is possible. We feel the relief when he gets home in the evening and simply stands on his balcony alone, having a smoke. The office where Saajan works is large and people work side by side. The setting is contemporary India and it is realistically conveyed with lots of people thronging the streets and crowding the trains. The film has a slightly melancholy mood as the leading man is a widower, quite old and about to retire, whereas the woman is much younger, with a husband who neglects her and a young daughter who is at school most of the time. The contact develops as they exchange notes, even though it is a relationship of words only, since they do not see each other. This is a gentle, humane story about two lonely people who accidentally make contact through a note inside a lunch-box. Genres: Bollywood, Comedy, Drama, Romance Countries: India

When he fails to respond to her efforts, Ila decides to enclose a note in the next meal and Saajan, his taste-buds tickled and his interest piqued, decides to write back. The lunchbox had been intended for young housewife Ila's emotionally indifferent husband in an attempt to win back his favour. When Saajan (Irrfan Khan), an ill-tempered Mumbai office worker nearing retirement, is delivered the wrong lunch he is pleasantly surprised by the improvement in his food.
