Chai Pani Etc

Set in bureaucratic Lutyens Delhi and ancient exotic Jaisalmer Chai Pani etc is a bittersweet coming of age story of earnest US returned filmmaker Satya While subtle intense newbie Zafar Karachiwala as the idealistic Satya struggles against official sloth hypocrisy corruption and censorship Konkona Sen National Award Best Actress brilliantly plays the two modern women who battle for his heart the fun loving ambitious fashion designer Radha and the elegant sensitive Shanti who works in a charity Adding to the chaos is hilarious Sinia Duggal as Satyas pushy aunt who tries to trap him into a traditional marriage and hysterically funny Gaurav Kapur as Satyas cynical friend who lives by the perverted rules of networks of power and patronage
