A woman rushing to reunite with her husband. A boy waiting to turn a page in his book of education. A man running away from murder and love lost. Another running towards love gained. Naseeruddin Shah tries his hand at making a film with multiple stories lines tied together by a fragile thread. The thread in this case is a journey to the USA. Brilliant acting from Paresh Rawal, Irfan Khan, Ratna Pathak and Boman Irani. Naseeruddin Shah deftly manipulates the four threads like a master puppeteer until the last twenty minutes where they get tangled and everything comes crashing down.
