Ila is an Indian wife and mother trying desperately to regain her husband's affection by going to great lengths to prepare his daily lunch, which is delivered to his office.

It could have dwelt on the organizational prowess of the dabbawalas (Bombay's famed lunch delivery servicemen)Д«ut it did none of the above, and it's a fantastic gem that lingers in your imagination long after you've seen it.

It could have had a formulaic conclusion.

There were so many ways this movie could have gone wrong: This is definitely one film that it is worth going out of your way to watch. It is well deserved as films of this quality are rare. Ritesh Batra, the writer and director of the film deserves all the praise that has been heaped on him. The dialogues between Ila and Auntie, and the passing of ingredients between the two, are the kind of lovely touch that makes this not just a good film, but a great film. She doesn't appear on screen once and yet without her the film would just not be the same. And lets not forget Bharati Achrekar who plays Auntie. A worthy mention also has to go to Nawazuddin Siddiqui who plays his part brilliantly and provides a beautiful counter balance to Irrfan Khan portrayal of Saajan Fernandes. At times it is hard to take your eyes of them as their expressions are saying more than the words. Irrfan Khan plays the lead to perfection, as does Nimrat Kaur. It really is superb writing throughout the whole film. The script is at times witty, poignant at others, whilst at the same time making beautiful user of silence. Everything about the film has an attention to detail that makes the film very watchable. Lunchbox is like the Bollywood version of the very best French film so it was no surprise to see that some of the funding had come from France - and I imagine some of the expertise too. Ford and the Count unwittingly play right into her hands, and when her plan of deception and manipulation comes to fruition, the results are staggering. But both men have gravely underestimated Vera, who has an agenda of her own. Everything appears to be going even better than planned. Ford cooks up an idea to pimp Vera out to the Count for $100,000, easy money, if he can only talk Vera into it. Aware of Vera's promiscuity, Ford sees a chance to make big money when he meets an aging Italian media mogul, named Count Tommaso, who is enamored of Vera because of her sexuality, her intelligence, and what he perceives as her naivetГ©. Her boyfriend, Ford, is a fast-talking hustler prepared to do anything to make a buck. As the daughter of wealthy, indulgent parents, Vera seems to be improvising her way through the beginning of her life as an adult.

She also videotapes a sexual romp with a female lover, and has sexually frank discussions with her potential employer. She picks up men on the street and has sex with them in her apartment. Vera is a femme fatale for the 21st century a beautiful, capricious young woman living in New York whom begins exploring the limits of her sexual and intellectual power.
