Overview
When hot shot, Wall Street dealmaker Jai thinks of putting some pleasure into his 48 hour business trip to Mumbai, Sahil, his young, music-producer friend, drops everything, including his reckless boyfriend Alex, to help him execute the perfect getaway. Hiking the hills and canyons of Maharashtra, amidst half-attempted conversations and sudden silences, business calls and old jokes, the friends discover there is more than just time-zones keeping them apart. Things take another turn when Alex shows up with a new male-companion at his side, throwing up old conflicts and bringing unanswered questions to the fore.

4.0Quite an annoyingly plodding tale of two friends - one successful, one not - who take a weekend trip and, of course, have the statutory "find themselves" sequence of conversations before reaching an ending that depicts appallingly violent behaviour in an almost comic, throw-away manner. It may well be that the artistic value here is in that Indian cinema was creating gay cinema at all, but this is not a good film, on any level.
