Dhobi Ghat: Aamir Khan’s film hailed by Toronto Film Festival

Aamir Khan has done it again. His next film ‘Dhobi Ghat’ (which also happens to be the directorial debut of his wife Kiran Rao) has rammed into the Toronto Film Festival and is creating ripples on international stage.
Director of the Toronto Film Festival, Cameron Bailey is all gaga about the film as he cites, “I love the film – it’s that simple. I have talking to them for months. When I saw it in July in Mumbai, I fell in love with it. It is very beautifully done. It’s very provocative, romantic. It really captures the feel of Mumbai – the things I love about the city, the vibrancy of the place, the feel of its streets, and the people. And it all happens in the monsoon season so that you get the texture of the rain, and how it feels to be there at that time of the year.”
He also hails Aamir Khan calling him as India’s national treasure. He also lavishes bucketful of praises on Kiran Rao for her sublime direction.

The film follows three inter-twined stories which give one the feel of the vibrancy of Mumbai. It is no ‘masala movie’ but a songless, dance-free story that spins a love letter surrounding the famed city.
