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]
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]
The film begins with Pia, an independent and free-spirited girl from Mumbai, arriving in Delhi to meet a prospective groom for an arranged marriage setup. However, upon reaching Delhi, she realizes that the groom is not what she expected, leading her to express her displeasure rather loudly at the train station.
Goli, a witty and carefree guy from Delhi, witnesses Pia's outburst and gets intrigued by her unconventional behavior. He decides to follow her and engages in a series of humorous and mischievous encounters with Pia. Despite their initial clashes, they eventually strike up conversations and begin to understand each other's perspectives, gradually forming a connection.
As they spend more time together, Pia and Goli explore the streets of Delhi, experiencing the city's culture, traditions, and nuances. Along the way, they engage in banter, arguments, and moments of understanding, showcasing the differences between the two cities they represent—Mumbai and Delhi.
Amidst their growing bond, Pia starts to see Delhi in a new light, appreciating its vibrant lifestyle and warmth. Meanwhile, Goli discovers a different side of Mumbai through Pia's stories and experiences. Their contrasting personalities lead to both comedic situations and genuine moments of connection.
Eventually, as Pia's visit comes to an end, she has to return to Mumbai. The time they spent together has had a profound impact on both Pia and Goli. They part ways at the train station, bidding each other a bittersweet goodbye, with an unspoken understanding of the special connection they shared.
The soundtrack is composed by Sawan Dutta & Rohan Rohan. Lyrics written by Priya Panchal & Rohan Gokhale (as Raahi Raahi). Production released two music videos based upon the film and its music. Titled Entry to Delhi and Raahi Raahi they "show the love-hate relationship between the protagonists."[6]
