Hindi romantic drama directed by Ritesh Batra and starring Irrfan Khan and Nimrat Kaur. Khan plays Saajan, a widowed Indian accounts clerk approaching retirement, who mistakenly receives a lunch box through Mumbai's daily delivery service. The lunch box was intended for the indifferent husband of lonely housewife Ila (Kaur) and Saajan sends back a note to state the mistake but thank her for the food regardless. However, his love for her food comes as a surprise to Ila, who is more accustomed to her thankless husband, and she decides to keep sending the lunch box for Saajan. The two begin exchanging notes and soon they reveal more to each other through their correspondence than they would to anyone else.

About this product

Product Information

Irrfan Khan stars as Saajan, a government accountant who is nearing retirement. He pays for his lunch to be delivered at work from a local restaurant, but his order is mixed with a meal prepared by Ila (Nimrat Kaur), a housewife who thought she was making lunch for her husband. When he eats every bite of the incorrectly delivered lunch, Ila asks her husband about her success, but his response convinces her that her hubby never got the food she prepared. Ila puts a note in the next lunch, and soon she and Saajan develop a pen-pal relationship.

ReviewsLos Angeles Times - One thing that makes LUNCHBOX so strong is that a touch of melancholy hangs over its sweetness. Finally this is a film about the wheel of life, about what helps us cope with its turns and find our way in its unforgiving labyrinth., Tampa Bay Times - Kaur and Khan, who was robbed of a IIFA nod, scarcely share a frame of The LUNCHBOX, yet the emotional connection of their characters is palpable.
