Do Paise Ki Dhoop, Chaar Aane Ki Baarish is a 2009 Indian film written and directed by Deepti Naval, starring Manisha Koirala, Rajit Kapur and Sanaj Naval.[2]

Plot

Juhi is an aging prostitute whose son Kaku requires a wheelchair. She finds it challenging to take care of him with the limited number of customers that now find her attractive. Debu, a not-so-successful lyricist, is dumped by his boyfriend, and is out on streets. These characters, in need of money and love, bump into each other, after which their lives take a similar direction. Their relationships, born out of mutual needs, change their perceptions about each other, which in turn brings a change in them—finally, a sunny day after days of merciless downpour.[3]

Cast

Release

This art film premiered at the market section of 2009 Cannes Film Festival. It was slated to release theatrically on 8 March 2012 in India but was postponed.[5] The film was released worldwide on Netflix on 22 September 2019.[6]

Critical reception

The film got a positive response at 2009 Cannes Film Festival.[7]

Gapers Block gave a moderate rating, calling the plot unoriginal, comparing it to an "elongated episode of Will & Grace". The representation of Debu, who is semi-closeted, was also criticised, for its stereotyped gay characteristics.[3] Shoma A. Chatterji of The Citizen called the film "niche" while praising the performances of three principal characters stating, "But the cream and the cake go to the three actors".[8]
