Sep 1 2018 N/A 1h 47m
Comedy, Drama, Romance

Shukla, a newly-married rickshaw driver, struggles to connect with his painfully shy bride Lakshmi. Their woes are compounded by his friends’ bad advice and his family’s inability to understand the concept of personal space.

Plot

Love and Shukla is the story of sex, love and the search for privacy in a small, one-room Mumbai chawl. Shukla, an auto driver from an orthodox Brahmin family, has never intimately known a woman other than the celluloid starlets he watches every day on the 4 inch display of his mobile phone. When his mother arranges his sudden marriage, Shukla and his new wife face the experience of so many couples in Mumbai: a new marriage, no experience in a relationship and a joint family love nest that offers no space for sex, much less a conversation. Their only respite is a line of old suitcases set up by his father to separate them from the family, a cell phone and a city of 18 million eyes.
