Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something. Same wavelength as Jab Tak Hai Jaan or Titanic.
- The mood
- Warm and romantic.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 2 hr 14 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Rai Bahadur is a very rich man. Neeta, his daughter, elopes with a taxi driver who later is revealed that wanted her only for her money. Desperate, Neeta commits suicide, abandoning her little daughter to Rai Bahadur's arms to raise her. When young Pinky grows up and also falls in love with the taxi driver Govinda, Rai Bahadur, afraid that the same misfortune will now plight his grandaughter, tries to seperate them. But Pinky's father will return from the shadows to claim what is his.
