‘Zara hat ke, zara bach ke yeh hai Bombay meri jaan’ (be cautious, stay aside because it is Bombay my dear) long time back Director Kalidas tried to capture the essence of Bombay, now Mumbai in 1975 film ‘Saazish’. And now, debutant director Kiran Rao, wife of Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan tries to divulge the life of Mumbai through a story of four people coming from different strata of society.

Releasing on 25th February 2011

Dhobi Ghat (Mumbai Diaries) may have some differences in the treatment, in comparison to ‘Saazish’ where the characters fall in love and set up for a romantic sail on a yacht, only to get into a conspiracy that shakes their belief on each other. However, Dhobi Ghat’s storyline intersects the four and changes their lives, leaving them into a compelling relationship which later turns upside down.

Apart from Aamir, the film stars Prateik Babbar (Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na), Monica Dogra, Kriti Malhotra, Kitu Gidwani, Nafisa Khan.

Dhobi Ghat will be released in the last week of February and it is 25th 2011, after too much of consideration and final thumbs up from Aamir.
