Synopsis

Mili lives in an apartment with her father, brother and a widowed aunt, but the entire building contains her extended family.

Our take

Featuring the real life couple Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan, Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s Mili is gentle reminder to let the hope within overpower the despair. The lead protagonists, a terminally ill yet exuberant woman and a dejected, brooding man, beautifully balance each other like yin and yang.
