Mumbai Delhi Mumbai is 2014 Hindi language Indian romance-comedy written and directed by Satish Rajwade for Viacom 18 Motion Pictures. The film, adapted from Rajwade's 2010 Marathi movie Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai,[1][2] stars Shiv Panditt and Pia Bajpai,[3] and released on 5 December.[4]

Background

[edit]

Satish Rajwade wanted to create a Hindi film based upon his original film in Marathi. Using his Mumbai Pune Mumbai as the template,[3] he reworked the original film in an attempt to give it a wider national appeal.[5]

Plot

[edit]

The film introduces us to Pia, an independent and free-spirited Mumbai girl, who reluctantly travels to Delhi for an arranged marriage meeting with Sidharth (whom she has already decided to reject). Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she loses her wallet and, in a rush to save money, boards an auto-rickshaw. Unfortunately, the driver's misconduct forces her to disembark, leaving her phone behind.

Enter Goli, a witty and carefree Delhi boy. Drawn to Pia's predicament, he offers assistance and, through a series of humorous and heartfelt interactions, they develop an unexpected bond. As they explore Delhi together, their conversations reveal the stark differences between their cities, sparking both laughter and genuine understanding.

Pia, initially resistant to Delhi's charm, begins to appreciate its vibrant culture and warm-hearted people. Goli, in turn, gains a fresh perspective on Mumbai through Pia's stories and experiences. Their contrasting personalities create a dynamic duo, leading to both comedic and heartfelt moments.

As Pia's visit draws to a close, she prepares to return to Mumbai. At the airport, she receives a call from Sidharth. Unbeknownst to her, Goli, who has been searching for his phone, reveals his true identity: he is Sidharth. He confesses that he agreed to the arranged marriage based solely on a picture of Pia and, after spending time with her, is even more certain of his decision. In a bold move, he proposes to her, leaving Pia stunned.

Without any response, Pia boards her flight. Later, using the phone she recovered from the auto driver, she sends a text to Goli, expressing her feelings and accepting his proposal.
