Once Again

Plot Summary

Amar is an ageing film star. A famous and wealthy man, he lives alone in Mumbai, a city of 15 million souls, the city of dreams. Tara, a widow, runs a small restaurant with the help of her son, who delivers Amar‘s meals. Tara has never seen Amar – except on the big screen. What began by pure chance a year ago has now turned into a ritual: for hours on end they talk to each other on the phone. Until one day, when Amar sets out to meet Tara in the flesh.

CRITIC REVIEWS:

Once Again artfully depicts a middle aged couple drifting into love.
– India Today

Don’t insult this delicately drawn gem by comparing it with Lunchbox.
– National Herald

Director Kanwal Sethi has a keen eye for detail. While The Lunchbox shows us how they fall in love, how they carry out their relationship over letters slipped into the dabba. And ends with the first time they decide to meet, when Once Again begins, Amar and Tara have already found each other. 
– Film Companion

Once Again, It’s a love letter to Shafali Shah.
– The Quint
